Anxious and Tense

[Mojogone]

Hi I have suffered from anxiety for many years. Three years ago , got really bad due to stress of work . Had CBT and sertraline. managed to get through it. But now hit another bad patch . Joints really ache, feel tense, can't seem to relax and over worry about myself. Had blood tests all came back fine . Went out on my bike today , which helped. But back on the meds, and can't seem to relax. My head seems a mess.

Hello

When we suffer with anxiety it is not unusual to feel better and then for it to hit us again which I know is such a shock when we feel we have moved on but take comfort in knowing you over came this once and you will again

Give the medication time , accept ok my head is a mess at the moment but it has been before and it came good again and so I can do this again , keep doing the things that helped and are helping you now like bike rides and you will work through this

You have found somewhere to come and talk joining these Communities where we understand how this affects you so you will not be alone and can have a chat with us all anytime you need to

Take Care x

Hiya

Lovely to hear from someone thank you for your reply. I will continue what I am doing, trying to think positive and hopefully, my head and body will sort itself out. it's so nice to hear from people who seem to understand, I have some good friends, but would find it difficult to talk about things like this. 🙂

Hello

I understand it makes it so much better no matter how much good support we have at home with friends and family to be able to talk to people that know exactly what we are going through and with this unless you feel it because you are suffering it is hard for others to totally understand , but you can talk with us anytime we know how it feels x

Hi

my wife know I have some issues, but she just tells people that I am having a loopy spell. So your correct it is difficult for family to understand , So I do try to keep it to myself as I don't want to be looked at as some looney .. x
