[Lily_s371]

It's currently night time and it feels like I'm going to die. It feels so real and everything feels like it already happened. It's scary and it honestly feels like I am going to die. My chest sometimes hurt or the area near my heart will feel weird or hurt not alot but it'll hurt. I fear that I'll die because something is wrong with me. I'm terrified I don't wanna die . It's been continuing to happen. Please help it feels like I will die. It feels all to real. Help! It feels like I've experienced death please help

Hi Lily_s371 I have this all the time! Please try not to worry ano it is hard but it will subside and the pains will go, it's all part of anxiety and it sucks! Well wishes xx

Hi Lily,

I know you talked with your grandmother a bit- what is the plan? As I said, first step- doc visit. Doc will check you out and maybe do blood work. Assuming this is primary anxiety (and it sounds like it), next step is therapy. You can recover from this completely, Lily, don't despair.

We actually went to the doctor last week, she didn't do any blood work just asked questions. She did give my grandma a paper for counseling but I don't think my grandma will take me. Another thing, I've been really worried about my health. I haven't eaten as much as I use to and now I feel like I've gotten skinnier. I'm really scared I don't want nothing bad to happen.

Hi Lily,

Can you tell your grandmother everything? Something tells me you've been holding back with her (?) Then I'd tell her you absolutely need to go see this therapist/counselor to whom they referred you. Keep telling her that - every day- until this moves forward. If it doesn't move forward, call the doc you saw and let him/her know you're having trouble with getting in to see the counselor. Do they have counselors at your high school? That's another person you can talk to about getting set up with ongoing/professional help.

You can do this. Don't be afraid to advocate strongly for yourself and your needs.

I feel like that every night

me too. Most days, I get anxious, then depressed, can't breath, my heart races, feeling of despair. Then for a very short time it disappears for a week and it comes back!!!!

I understand completely, my symptoms jump from one to the other, and some days I just want to cry...

I have dizziness, pains all over, including chest pain, and goes on and on.

. The anxiety can do all this...

Seeing a good therapist has helped me more than anything so far

Don't give up.
