Yes, yes and yes. You are not alone xx
How do you deal?
I will definitely get back to you. On my way out for a couple hours.
Anxiety isn't as complex as we think it is. xx
Thank you!
Me too... at the mo I feel shaky and butterflies chest, I try to avoid thinking but it keeps coming back!! How how
Yes! Even when I try to refocus it comes riggggggt back!!!
Worse when sit down or in bed innit
Yes mine is in the middle of the night early morning.....
How long it’s been going...mine for 2 years and sometimes it’s calm sometimes it’s bad
Mine when I was a child and now... about year or so. Do you have moment of impending doom? Or death
What’s that... I get strange feeling like dream vision etc
Me too! Impending doom feeling that something bad is going to happen
Yes I get that too... I try push it down and get distracted but it’s hard.
My brain keeps going round in circles like non stop
Mine too.... sometimes I try to pace back and forth or think of something else! But sometimes it’s very hard. Are you a person of faith?
No I’m a negitive person in life.. I need to be positive that’s what my wife keep saying to me!
Glad u are feeling the same so I’m not alone..
Hope we can share tips
Going for a nice walk does help
By the way do u take anti depression ? As last week I couldn’t cope so went c dr and she gave me sertraline and said it will help... been a week now still no difference
I take Lexapro. I think it takes about 4 weeks to really work
But seems it doesn’t work for u
I began to be a negative after all of the stuff started happening in life.
No your definitely not alone, I always think I’m alone.
My husband tells me I need to be positive
Brokenworry18, your husband is absolutely correct in that you need to be positive. All that worry we do about the past and the future just exacerbates
our already high fear levels. We can't do anything about the past and worrying about the future is out of our control. The only thing we do have is today. The present moment. When we consolidate our worries to this moment in time, it becomes less threatening.
I use Mindfulness Meditation/DeepBreathing. It brings me back to reality which in truth is today. Working with Positive Confirmations can allow the negative thoughts to decrease. Nothing can happen overnight. It takes time and practice to get back to a calmer, safer place in our mind. Once our mind is there, our body will follow. Wishing you Positivity, Calmness and Peace. xx
Thank you so very much! What do I do with the impending doom thoughts?
I always ask myself, Is this thought useful?? The answer is always no when it pertains to a doom and gloom recurring thought. I turn to something more physical to take my mind off the thoughts as well as move my muscles. In time, those thoughts will come into play less and less. Those thoughts are not rational and I refuse to have it take over my mind. Practice makes perfect. It took a long time for us to get this way and will take time, patience and effort to get rid of what is nothing more than a habit. xx
Thank you I appreciate you very much fo your reply! And advice! I guess it does take practice! Even now I’m so anxious and nervous I’m not see why? But yeah
Your in a position now Brokenworry where you are constantly questioning yourself as to why these things keep happening. It is only when you accept the fact that anxiety is causing you to feel this way by emitting large amounts of adrenaline coursing throughout you. By starting to listen to meditations that use deep breathing and calming words and advice, will your body start relaxing. x
Thank you! I never ever thought that way.... I guess I think it’s more than anxiety so I freak myself else! And so much more. Or everything I do is a sign or a crow or butterfly or dream everything is bad signs.
We have been and are still undergoing Great anxiety. Debts, DWP problems, family separation, Traumatic Brain Injury... it all adds up. We are praying for a brighter future for everyone once we can stop the risk of deadly roads (that is how I got my TBI in the first place). Have a nice day.
I’m sorry! Thank you for understanding! I’m praying for you! Have a blessed day
I feel like that most of the time you are not alone Gail
Ugh thank you! I thought I was crazy
No just having issues my anxiety is over looking and feeling overweight Gail
Same here!
I find that if I have a protein shake for one meal or two a day it makes me feel better Gail
I should try that. I keep getting thoughts and it’s making my anxiety go up!
Maybe try listening to yoga and meditation music it does help Gail
Ok I’ll try that!
Everyone tries to say do yoga or meditation. The truth is find things that make you happy and roll with it. If you live your life in worry, you will never grow from it. I constantly deal with anxiety and I get a little better a coping everytime!
Thank you. I’m trying I get these thoughts and now I’m worried again
When I get worried I look up webmd. Then I get f***** because I diagnose myself when things don’t have nothing to do with me. Back pain turns into the thought of cancer, etc... We have to hear people say “are you just stressed?” People don’t understand it’s not just stress, it’s the build up of racing thoughts that sometimes we can’t control alone. You need to work on being happy and distracting yourself. You’ve lived long enough to have a wonderful family and I’m sure you’ll have many more years to come! Even if we all a short time to live, do you want to waste it thinking how can I keep thinking about being sad? :).
Breath, sleep, let lexipro kick in you relax you. Learn coping techniques with the medication so you can get off of it in the future.
I’m going to ask you for advice the next time I have an issue, deal?
Deal! Thank you!
you have to promise yourself that you will not check Dr Google, or webmd or any of those sites until you start to feel better without them.
They are like "crack" for us who have health anxiety..........it is a bad idea!
Right? 
Omg yes!!!!! I google everything even dreams
GAME OVER.
NO more googling anything.
IF you need reassurance, you have to CALL somebody on the phone or go see them face to face.
The screen is NOT your friend when you have health anxiety.
Your so right! I have been so addicted
Yes yes of course, anxiety 101. Sorry if sound sarcastic but what u described is the start of everything.
No your fine. Ughhhhhh it drives me crazy
Yes yes and yes!!! And omg yes!!! Obsessive feelings!! Awful!!
