Don't no how to stop

[dizzychar]

I've suffered from anxiety for a long time now. Currently having cbt, and it's helping in some ways but I still can't control the worries, it's like as soon as I get a symptom I automatically think the worst about it, it makes me really upset and scared! Even without a symptom I still have all these worries and thoughts swirling round my mind! Has anyone been able to deal with it?

I would say think positive but it's easier said than done right ? Haha but also maybe just relax okay ! Don't let anxiety scare you (:

I feel the same way one minute all is good and than bam I feel something and little thing and I think the worse I hate it. Always with this fear praying for all of us to start feeling some what better

dizzychar,  every sentence  you wrote is 100% the truth in the life of an anxious person.   As Alan said "we need to think  positive and not let it scare us"...

I try to stay positive, I try and take my mind off it etc, but I still feel like it's so powerful that it's really hard to not take notice of it, if that makes sense, sometimes I don't no what the matter is and I just have a sick feeling, like somethings not right but I can't explain it? X

Try meditation , deep breathing Health anxiety is horrible and will control you ,if you do not take baby steps to help your self , its not easy , infact at times it does seem impossible , but its not , it can be done , bless you and i hope you get peace of mind soon xxxx

Been feeling just like this! I actually try to focus on it and let it consume me if it will. Like I'm saying "okay I accept this. Bring it on! " sometimes this helps it pass really quickly sometimes I chicken out and it sucks. I still always have the thoughts right now though, dealing with those is a little harder, just trying to be mindful that they are just that: thoughts. Not based on fact. I try to let them go as often as I can

Hi Puddless, I caught myself for a few moments this morning telling myself "I'm scared". Immediately, I talked myself out of it by saying out loud, "what do you want", "leave me alone". Then I went on with my day. Happy, happy when I'm in control once more.

I do that to! It has been coming back but for a brief time I feel the same. Myself and in control I find if I dwell too much on how "normal" and happy I am in that moment it can deteriorate into panic. Anxiety is so frustrating lol

Isn't that maddening? We can't be too happy either. It's like Goldilocks and the Three Bears, it has to be just right. x
