Ive been told all my feelings and symptoms are anxiety. Ive only had basic blood work and thyroid and ekg done. My problem is i feel constantly like im going to pass out all day long and im dying it never leaves not even for a second. im barely functioning at this point and I do not feel like myself at all! I feel like i am dying and on my death bed, or that I am going crazy? my entire body aches! i have small children i need to take care of but i cant even take care of myself and for the most part bedridden. How can one be in a constant anxiety attack? Ive always had health anxiety and panic attacks for the last 17 years and when the panic attack is gone i feel normal again. I dont feel normal. i dont feel like mysef. im so scared I have a undiagnosed terminal illness. ive been stuck like this for weeks now 24/7. Im losing weight because i can barely eat without feeling nauseous and dizzy. Ive taken the meds zoloft for 3 weeks. it didnt help and honestly i believe it contributed to me feeling this way. ive started therapy. nothing is helping. nothing and everyday im getting worse Im withering away . im so scared to leave my family. my beautiful babies need their mommy. the only time i get out of bed is to take care of them. I just feel like such a failure as a mom right now. they dont deserve this. im suffering so bad and i truely believe this cant be anxiety.
What type of stressors are in your life right now? you may be dealing with unhealed trauma from long ago, or it could be the stress of everyday life, or it’s your body telling you it’s time to slow down and fix this issue.
I’m glad you started therapy as this can help you get to the bottom of your issues.
Remember this: anxiety cannot kill you.
It cannot take anything away from you. Even if you are panicking, you are still you…just a more stressed you at the moment.
Keep a journal of your anxiety, what causes it, how you feel, etc.
