SEVERE ANXIETY!

[-Rinaaa]

Thanks for clicking on my post guys! I would really appreciate any help I can get! I suffer from severe anxiety.

It makes it hard for me to go out and travel as I worry something may happen. It puts crazy thoughts into my head and I constantly feel like I'm going to die!

I’m losing my mind. Can you guys tell me your symptoms? This makes life so hard. Constant worry and feeling scared everyday is not how I would like to live!

Also.. does anyone get a sort of weird sensation in their head sort of like the blood is being sucked out when they get up??

Please comment guys. Stay safe and take care.

I recommend you check out the DARE Anxiety book and program to learn about anxiety/panic, what it actually is, how to deal with it, accept the thoughts and feelings and recover from it. It helped me during a setback I had earlier this year. Another good source are the videos and books of Dr. Claire Weekes. You might also talk with your therapist if you have one about medication, at least for the short term.

I had general anxiety and primarily social anxiety disorder for years as a result of childhood bullying and growing up in an emotionally repressive family. Knowing and understanding why and how you developed the anxiety disorder can help in your recovery and getting the right treatment for it. As a result of the bullying, I developed c-ptsd and sought help from a trauma therapist who used emdr therapy which was very helpful.
