Is there a way out?

[alanakaye]

I can't even begin to explain how I'm feeling. diagnosed with anxiety and depression just sucks. My anxiety has caused me to barely eat from feeling sick all the time that my sugar levels dropped severely and I was rushed to a&e just a week ago. And I'm only 17 years old. I can't go out because I feel I'm going to faint all the time, I have no energy and constantly suffering with migranes. it's been like this for months now, there's so much more too it but I just couldn't explain. I don't know what to do no more. I have g.a.d meaning there's literally nothing I can do and nothing has to trigger it. I've been getting so confused lately forgetting what I'm doing where I put my stuff I can't even make a sandwich with out having to sit down or remember where things are. my life is turning to hell. Please tell me there is a way out of this?

You have seen a doctor, are you on any medicines?

I got rid of my anxiety, it took a while but I did it.

You need to keep yourself busy, don't give your brain time to think like it is doing now.

Its hard because you feel tired and that all of the time but you need to get up and go so you can control this.

Exercise, diet, drawing, out walking amongst other things is what got me through this.

You need to get active.

I have gone through this exact feeling, and it is a terrible one. You feel defeated, not yourself, helpless, and drained..but there is a way out. First go to your doctor and explain this to them and maybe they will suggests meds to ease the anxiety. I still get anxious and short of breath like I stated on my post you replied to, but also I have gotten better in terms of all around anxiety. Once my doctor ruled me co oletely healthy I have been able to control my anxiety to a certain extent. We have to own the mindset that anxiety is just that, anxiety..it's not health problems that are going to kill us..but a torturous bully of the mind. We have to overcome these feelings and know that they are ones of anxiety..say that you're okay..breathe and talk yourself through it. try to fill your mind with positive things and surround yourself with positive people and ones you can confide in about your anxiety..and always look here for support! We can beat this! One day at a time
