I can’t even get a break for a moment.

I can’t even sit at the bank without feeling I’m going to die. I can’t have a peaceful moment maybe a second or two where i feel like its over and it already passed. But then it comes back worse and i feel like I’m going to be one who dies young. I’m terrified.

That's the same way I feel, I only think about death, I don't have moment of peace with myself. Always having this feeling that I'm going to drop dead any moment

I know exactly what your talking about i cant go into a store with out a melt down. I get heart palpitations dont know what their caused from my gp thinks its anxiety but idk what to believe. I miss shopping by myself 😔

Have you talked to a doctor about your bad feelings, shadowme? There are a few things like thyroid problems and adrenal fatigue that can give the same symptoms of anxiety disorder. Highly unlikely but worth asking your doctor about for reassurance.

Sure sounds like anxiety to me, though. When our nerves become sensitised we exaggerate small things tenfold into major problems. An insignificant pain in the chest becomes an imminent heart attack. Normal tiredness becomes magnified into impending death. That's what may well be happening to you, shadowme. It's anxiety exaggerating all your minor concerns into life threatening major illness.

Relax, you've many decades of healthy active life to look forward to.

shadow, don't beat yourself up over the bank thing.

That one plagued me for ever. IT is hard to wait in line, anywhere for alot of us who are in the "thick of it".

It will go away.
