Hi Maggie

So sorry to hear your feeling like this, my heart goes out to you as it does to every other sufferer on here, I know this feeling only too well, I have the same dreadful symptoms, it does help to know your not alone with these experiences, there are many of us here who can relate to your fears, but you must try and tell yourself that YOU ARE OK, YOUR QUITE SAFE, these overwhelming feelings are just part of the symptoms of your anxiety, hang in there, you'll get through today with or without these feelings xxx

Thanks just so hard then need to get up next day n go throght it again

[Hidden in reply to Maggie-cassidy1988]

Yes, get up every day and face whatever this anxiety throws your way, it will not kill you, it's definitely not an easy task but it's not impossible either, I know how overwhelming it feels and how disheartened we can become, but people do actually recover and that's a fact, stay strong and ride it out you won't come to any harm even though.you think otherwise xxxx

Thanks a have had it 2 times one 8 years ago then 2 years ago then now again just seems to ve the same symptoms thats am going to die all the time so horrible iam trying eveything a can but hard

[Hidden in reply to Maggie-cassidy1988]

Yes its very hard to overcome, I had it over a year ago and managed to recover, then several weeks ago it came back from nowhere, I hate this illness with a passion and I hate what it does to people's lives, but I now realize that recovery is possible and that keeps me going, we have to practice recovery until we eventually succeed, it will happen eventually if we keep on accepting and allowing time to.pass xxx

Yeah I can fully relate to those thoughts, its another cruel symptom of this dreadful anxiety xxx

[Maggie-cassidy1988 in reply to Hidden]

Ano so hard have u got this fear to

[Hidden in reply to Maggie-cassidy1988]

Yes I often have those fears, even though deep down I know its anxiety, I still struggle with it much of the time, its very scary and it stops me from doing things but I'm trying to find full acceptance of these feelings because it truly is the key to recovery, practice acceptance as much as you possibly can until you've mastered it xxx

Yes indeed I do, infact today is one of those jind of days for me, I need to go out to town to shop, but I just can't bring myself to do it! I'm feeling dizzy and full of panic, its terrible, I know that recovery is possible but sometimes it gets quite overwhelming and yes its a terrifying feeling, my heart goes out to all fellow sufferers xxx

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

How do you practice acceptance?

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

You carry on with whatever it is your doing regardless of symptoms, it won't be easy and so you have to practice this, this is accepting anxiety, this is how you recover, no running from it, no allowing it to stop you in your tracks, no allowing it to scare you that much that you retreat, this is accepting xxx
