Yes!just not quite with it.its a weird feeling!

in reply to Minnie87

Yes it is,

If I’ve been really anxious and maybe isolated for a few days I can get it when I eventually go outside, don’t feel part of the human race at times...

You are not alone.

If it continues or you feel bothered always with getting checked over, even just to reassure yourself.

I’m sorry you have these feelings x

Yes I get this pretty often. I have pretty severe health anxiety and it’s mainly about dropping dead from my heart stopping or heart attack, having a stroke, seizure, or just fainting. I’ve been to a few doctors and ER and had many tests done and they all say anxiety. I get physical symptoms like skipped heartbeats, dizziness, tingling in legs, hands, face, and others, but at times I won’t have the symptoms and will just have a feeling like I feel off or not right. I will also feel foggy during this and think oh something is going wrong. My therapist says this is common with anxiety and it is because our brain is on guard or high alert for danger. It’s no fun.

Yes I’m hearing you . I can be talking to someone and my heart skips and jumps and scares the shit out of me and takes my breath away . So I then I just need to get out of there . I’m sure they must see the concern on my face . No your not a failure at all to your kids . We just have this bloody devil inside us that rules us . I had a great day yesterday and then today just want to sit inside and do nothing . Just feeling really blank .

in reply to Jodz

Jodz in reply to

Over the last 20 years I think I have tried about 6 different meds and they made me really crook or worse . I have tablets that I take as PRN when needed . In Australia it’s called

Kalma it’s the same as Xanax . I try to only take them when I have a panic attack . But some days just my anxiety is bad so I take half

in reply to Jodz

Longer . Have had anxiety ever since I was a kid . I’m nearly 53 . But those days no one knew what it was . Mum and Dad thought I was just a sook lol . If we went anywhere with family / friends and there was more than one car I would make Mum go in the other car in case they where both killed . I also would stress and cry if mum and dad went in the car together . And it would really affect me . Going to school was a big issue as well .

feelings are not facts they lie and deceive you and tell you of danger when there is none.
