Is it normal

[apayett24]

I'm feeling blank and when I was trying to fall asleep I started feeling like I was have a seizure or going to have one is this normal because I dont have seizures I'm just really scared wondering if someone is going through the same thing

If you've been anxious that is the adrenaline releasing. I get it too. It's awful. Get up and shake it out-even do some jumping jacks to get it out of you. Then do some breathing to relax and this will pass. Talk to your brain and tell it everything is OK and any anger or fear you have can be released through breathing (or yelling into your pillow).

I'm afraid of having a brain tumor

[sunnyg in reply to apayett24]

What evidence do you have of this? Brain tumors are very, very rare. You would have obvious symptoms. If you went to the doctor right now, they wouldn't even consider a brain tumor based on your symptoms.

If you need to go to a doctor to be reassured, then do that. The doctor can tell you it is not a brain tumor. You must believe it.

If you can get up and twenty jumping jacks, then you are fine. Test yourself.

We anxiety peeps think in black and white: I am perfectly fine or I am dying. Think in gray-there is a million (yes a million) other reasons I could be feeling this way that are NOT a brain tumor.

KNOW that anxiety is a bastard and can make you feel like you're going to have a seizure and it can convince you it's because of something awful.

Your anxiety is lying to you.

Breath, meditate, wiggle the adrenaline out, and relax.

You're fine and brave.

What a worrier you are. Need to work on your anxiety and stop all this thinking
