I believe that anxiety can manifest in many physical symptoms. The problem for me is how to face them and accept them...

Good post. I experienced every single thing on there. And have experienced over half on there at the same time or in my bad moments.

Me too. That’s why I thought I’d pop it on this forum.. I can never quite believe our bodies are capable of all these things and that mostly our minds are controlling it .

Thank you for replying.

Me too. Im like I just can't get over the thought that my own mind/brain can do this to me. So many times I worry that my own powerful negative brain is working against me and I won't be able to control my own mind from taking over. I've even been thinking like wow what if we can use our powerful brains to think positive and convince ourselves of great things? Will it actually work in our favor just like how our brain worked against us when were were thinking the worst of things?

Yes I believe we can change our mindset with positive thinking.. it takes a lot of time , patience and acceptance but I think if you’re open enough it can be achievable.

Yes, I so get this.. sometimes when I’m over tired or just feeling off .. my mind too , wanders and I think all the worse things.

I try really hard though to be greatful for all the good things I have and feel lucky to be able to share my story.

Keep positive. 😊

Yes. My sentiments exactly

I dropped to 46kgs due to zoloft. I still see myself as normal weighted but people keep telling me i m too skinny. The worst about panick disorders is that you lose the very meaning of who you are and why you are. Hating myself because i got rejected so often doesnt help. It all started after being rapped. I dream of my deceased younger sister every night and am unable to deal with death or departing. None of this makes sense. I used to believe in god but he tortured my youngest brother for 23 years through epilepsy and heavy handicap. How can this be acceptable when we believe god is love and forgiveness. He is not. Just testing us like lab rats to see who s worthy of his love. Nothing else. Sounds like a narcissistic behaviour.

I’m really sorry to hear all you’ve been and are going through. I can see why you would wonder about your faith and why you and your loved ones should of been put through such an ordeal . I wish you all the very best and hope that things become a little easier in the future.
