Feeling overstimulated

[Fitcat93]

Hello I am brand new here and happy to try this out. Reading other’s questions and answers has been helpful to me already. I’m also new to anxiety. Here is my question/worry.

I often feel over stimulated like I’ve had too much caffeine or having an adrenaline rush. It’s like I’m high but completely sober. I don’t even drink caffeine anymore. I’m learning to accept it and ignore it and just let it be there. When something stressful happens I start to feel this way and it’s really uncomfortable. I just don’t feel like myself lately. Does anyone else feel like this and what do you do to fee better? Thank you.

Hi Fitcat93, what works for me is doing Meditation 3x a day as well as using my breathing techniques when feeling stressed.

I have found that proper breathing can lower or completely alleviate that

overstimulated feeling. xx

Yes, I have that sensation often. It is as if I’ve had 20 big cups of coffee, and my body actually buzzes or hums.
