You do not own your anxiety symptoms, they do not belong to you alone.
Anxiety takes many forms but it is always still anxiety. All the bad feelings you feel each day are symptoms of anxiety: we have read about them here before, we will read about them here again. None of these symptoms are unique to you. Naturally, you will spend copious time and attention stressing, obsessing

Derealization/Depersonalization
For over a year now I’ve been agoraphobic and it all started with anxiety then panic attacks then housebound. And a year ago a symptom came and never went away and I kept telling everyone my vision is off or weird. And I feel dreamlike at times and 24/7 things just feel off in my eyes. I’m thinking it

ECT update
Hi! Wanted to update you on my ECT. I’ve completed the initial 12 treatments & am currently on “maintenance “ — 2x/month then down to occasional treatments. Thing is, I don’t know how to tell if I’m getting better. People tell me I seem better, whatever that means. But it’s not like I don’t still get

Severe anxiety or something else?
I have been struggling with severe anxiety for several months now due to various physical and psychological symptoms. I have been to so many doctors and they have found nothing other than heart tachycardia. I wake up with internal tremors and uncontrollable physical anxiousness/adrenaline/lightheaded

I’m not ok
I started meds (Buspirone and Sertraline) 3&1/2 weeks ago. At first I noticed the Buspirone working but now it doesn’t seem to be working. I’m not sure if the Sertraline has had time to work or not. I have been going to sleep at a decent time every night but I’ve been sleeping until around 1pm, with

Anti depressants - round 2 sertraline
It’s been a while again. Suffering a lot with anxiety and depression and forced myself to take a trip to the doctors. He has put me on sertraline 50mg and as usual I am terrified of the side effects. Will I take them? At the moment definitely not no way. So here I am asking for help and a rational person

Good morning all, thank you for accepting me. I suffer from extreme anxiety which seemed to start after my daughter died, I also have the constant feeling that I’m dying. It’s gotten to where I hate leaving my house, I stay in pajamas all the time, I feel tightness in my chest, my head feels like I’m

More information about my last post
So you should know this same scenario plays out continuously in daily life, driving or not. She is very good at detecting any frustration or anger on my part. If she shows no awareness I sometimes warn her that I'm getting upset about.... whatever. Her response is to provoke me, no kidding. She knows

Emetophobia, Anxiety, Panic, Pregnancy
Hi all, I recently found out I was pregnant and ever since I have been an absolute nervous wreck. I suffer from emetophobia, anxiety, depression, and panic attacks. I'm 5 weeks along and I'm terrified of morning sickness and what's to come in the next 8 months. This feels like a horrible rollercoaster

Still Coping
It also had almost been a year since I begun consistent treatment for my conditions (Bipolar Disorder, GAD, OCD, Social Phobia, PTSD, Panic Disorder,
Phobias
, and an eating disorder). Coping with the after effects has been super challenging, and all the anger/resentment that has built up.
