I have been feeling so anxious lately my brain feels like it's pulsating and won't relax. My whole body feels like it's shaking. I am going to pick up a shift somewhere different and the thought of it terrifies me. I am so nervous people will know how nervous I am how much I am shaking and that I have ocd. It's the worst. It feels like it won't pass and that I'll feel this way forever. Anyone else experience this and have anything to do that they find helps?

I know how feel as I am dealing with the same thing right now. It’s like a nervousness I can feel right underneath my skin and a warm sensation through my body. It’s horrible at best. I can’t provide much help but I can definitely let you know you are not alone.

I had that last year and felt it would never end - I felt like my brain was a volcano ready to erupt and could feel the blood pulsating at it was so hot - plus my body was shaking almost tremor like - it was so scary and physically exhausting- I couldn’t move and rested for several months - I stopped functioning and was prescribed diazepam- I think the rest really helped x good luck x

Continue to seek the help from your doctors. For your spiritual side, continue to pray and read.

“Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God, and the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” - Phil. 4:6-7

Recently, my anxieties about what other people think has greatly reduced due to realizing that Jesus has set us free from having to do x, y, and z to be righteous. Instead, he is the righteous one who paid the price for our wrongdoings and gives us his Spirit to do the right thing. If we trust in his freedom and that he does want us to experience life more abundantly, then we are more free to love others and overcome our anxieties and fears.

God is with you today and everyday. Keep moving forward and looking to Jesus Christ for help.
