I need support

[Trees2357]

I can't stop crying or being afraid. I have that fearful feeling in my stomach.

[Jeff1943]

Trees, listen to me, everything is going to be O.K., you are going to recover from all this fear and feel calm and happy once again. Let me just ask, has your doctor given you a Thyroid test as sometimes hypothoroidism can cause high anxiety, it is easily remedied, unlikely it is that but worth asking.

No, you have nothing to fear, believe me, you are in no danger and nothing threatens you. No need for tears, that fear feeling in your tummy won't harm you, you don't have to worry about it, we all here get it just like you, it's not nice but nothing you need to get upset over.

Listen to me, Trees, just relax, just chill out, tell yourself these feelings aren't worth worrying about and just sit back and let evety muscle in your body go limp, specially the jaw muscle and that imaginery muscle in your brain, feel that relaxing totally too.

Life is good and has lots to offer you if you let it, think of the things that bring you pleasure and enjoyment and forget the rest. All troubles pass, Trees, yours will too maybe starting from right now, why not!

My husband won't let me drive the car so I can't goanyplace other than if take the bus. We went out to lunch and all I wanted to do was cry I usually feel good when we go out walking makes me feel good not anymore I'm still fearful I'm getting worse because I'm afraid of it

[Jeff1943 in reply to Trees2357]

Your husband doesn't want you to drive because it isn't safe to do so yet. Don't be afraid, you are very brave and you don't need to feel afraid.

My nerves are so sensitized. My doctor took klonopin down 1/4mg on tues and I feel terrible.

[Trees2357 in reply to Jeff1943]

I don't want the fear anymore. I've tried meditating breathing. They are going to have to put me away

[Trees2357 in reply to Jeff1943]

I'm still crying

Please try and persevere with Jeff's advice. Your distress won't go away instantly. Perhaps you sometimes need to cry for emotional release.

I've been like this for so long my anxiety is bad because I'm afraid of it. I'm worse now. I have pain. It's frustrating. I know how to make it better but I can't. I've been crying all day. I cry everyday

[Trees2357 in reply to Forestina]

I need a good anxiety therapist but they are hard to find in my area. Maybe hospitalized.

[HearYou in reply to Trees2357]

You wrote to Agora1 you had a therapist again now, a few days ago. Do not believe you are Trees2357. Where is she?

[Forestina]

Is there anybody you can contact a professional who may be able to advise? You do not know for certain you will be hospitalised, but surely you want to be stabilised and your suffering eased. It must be so hard for you.

[HearYou]

Sorry, but really do not believe you are Trees2357.

Hi Trees, there is most likely something causing your fear, and an experience that was frightening that you sub consciously think about when you begin to feel that way. Try to think it through. You are safe and in a safe place. You have your doctor to talk to, you have this support group, you are save. If you address what is bothering you, and tell yourself it is ok. You are worth more than anything that could have happened, I have a strongbelieve in God and I know he loves you more than anything that could have happened. Just relax and know that once you address the root of the fear everything is going to be ok, you probably have and idea why you are fearful but have not addressed it because it scares you. The old saying, there is nothing to fear but fear itself is right on point. Relax and know you are safe.
