Feels like I’m just going to drop dead.

when I go to the doctors office they tell me I’m perfectly fine... but I get these overwhelming sensations like I’m just going to drop dead... it’s scary because I have an 8 month old and I fell so stuck... I feel disconnected from my own body at times... I feel helpless... has anybody dealt with this? I’ve had this feeling before years ago then my life went back to normal until about a month ago now I just feel like this is my new normal and I’m stuck here😔😫

I understand this all too well. I was doing great besides the occasional anxiety attacks. I didn’t have physical symptoms all day everyday. Then, 4 months ago my anxiety came in full swing and it’s been so physical, it’s driving me insane. I’ve been to the ER 3 times in the last 4 months because of it. I just don’t understand this. I’m here if you need to talk. ❤️

This really sucks... my last big attack was in 2017... and it took me months to recover and it’s the same😔 I hate it maannn, I wish we didn’t have to deal with this... and it doesn’t help that all the physical things we feel is caused by anxiety and thoughts😤 it’s so scary, some days I don’t wanna leave home and some nights I’m afraid to go to sleep 😫😖

I have been feeling this same exact way. You are not alone. I dispise feeling like this. The physical sensations are so strong and it's hard to believe it is panic and anxiety. I fear it's awareness seizures. I have tons of neurological symptoms and so scare this is what it is. Still in the process of finding out. It is rough. I am anxious all the time now and I used to never be this way. And my poor child is seeing it and he just wants me back to how I used to be. I'm trying hard...battle of the mind....if it is anxiety and panic I have to find away to break from it somehow. It is crippling and exhausting. And physically extremely uncomfortable.
