So I've been good for about 4 days. Then I started with the feeling like I couldn't breathe and palps last nite. Was able to get to sleep at 3am, then woke up feeling the same. Then started googling( which I haven't done in a while) and now I just feel worried. Im a worrier. I run in the bathroom all day long cause nobody can get in. And I just sit there with the water on. Everywhere I go im running in a bathroom. And my kids know somethings wrong. I Just keep saying I dont feel good. I feel lonely, but wanna be left alone. Haven't left the house in a week and blame it on the snow but thats not it . So much to get off my chest sometimes. No therepy yet just meds. Was outgoing and loved the sunshine. But this anxiety has got me rite now. I do know that this too shall pass. Just hope sooner than later. Thanks for reading. I do feel a little better.

My ramble.
Sorry to hear that. I was a happy person also but once all this started I became a sad depressed scared person. Some days are good and the bad days are absolutely horrible. I'm not really sure how I get out of bed most days, don't have a choice the bills don't wait. I was up last night to feel asleep at like 2am I think I normally don't have sleeping problems 😔
Mloanddb I've not really had sleeping probs until I started having anxiety and thoughts of things past. Then I like my quiet time without kids up. But then I start worrying and lokking stuff up which contributes to my not falling asleep. What a cycle
Looking things up is one of the worst things you can do.. can you stop yourself from doing it?
I used to do it but forced myself to stop, it made everything more confusing and worse.
I hope you feel better soon.
jimtom Thanks! I do feel better. I did stop looking up things for about a month or so. Just hope I can for good. I will.
I switched the computer/ mobile etc off as soon as I thought of looking things up, went and made myself busy instead, soon got out of the habit of it.
I know exactly how you feel! The anxiety is so bad you can't help but want to isolate yourself away from anything I do the same thing I have been in bed for 2 days now thinking I have pancreatic cancer and googling all this stuff and it's such a vicious cycle that absolute makes things worse! I suffer with that annoying breathing problem as well I have had that for 7 years! Still remember the day it started.. anxiety takes so much from our lives everyday I can't even count or begin to explain the amount of time I have wasted being in a complete state of worry and unable to function and what's crazy is one day I can be fine and the next my whole life changes because the anxiety decides to take over my mind I have no idea where this even comes from! Just know that you are not alone in this battle!
Thanks Andrea1915, it's always nice to hear that you are not alone even when you feel like you are.
I know how u feel. Even on good days im in my room worried about whats gonna happen next. Im hoping to get in therapy soon cause I keep hearing how it really helps. But these days its even hard to leave the house. Cant wait for better days!
