Severe head cold making me craaazy

Hi guys! I haven't posted in a while. I've been doing okay. Definitely better than before. I got hit with this terrible cold and my derealization and anxiety are through the roof, having me thinking i'm going to die etc. because I feel so strange inside my head. It's too late to go to the doctor today but Im going to try to get in tomorrow. Just having a very bad anxiety night and wanted some reassurance. Xoxo

Hi... I’ve been dealing with the same thing. My sinuses have been going crazy with the sudden weather changes. I started taking over the counter meds to help, but nothing seems to work. So of course my anxiety kicks in, smh.

I started to think my blood pressure was high and that I was going to have a stroke and die. The only time I feel good is when I’m asleep. It really sucks. So it’s been like a month I’ve been going through this roller coaster and I finally got a grip on it.

At some point you just have to remind yourself that you are ok. Let it be what it’s going to be. Breath!!! Just relax and before you know it, it will pass.

You can control your thoughts. Be mindful and don’t overthink.

I know it’s easier said than done. You’re not alone.

Hope you start feeling better.

I can relate to you !!! I’ve had it for over a week now and it’s driving me crazyyyy my anxiety is so bad I feel like I’m going crazy and like I’m dying too, been getting short of breath more often and dizzy/lightheaded and derealization also. I hate it!!! Not having a good day/night

What antidepressant ended up working for you?

Meds don't work for me unfortunately

Hi. I have been doing realy well since I completed my BWRT therapy it's really helped me but I'm the same as soon as I feel a little under the weather or get a pain I think the worst is going to happen. You have got to try and remember that the feelings are just feelings and focus on somthing else nothing can hurt you, your stronger than you know. Your not alone stay strong. 😊
