My anxiety has been off the wall for the last two weeks. I've had anxiety for over six years now and it's gotten worse over the years, but since being diagnosed with Mononucleosis in July, it has been horrible - especially recently. In the last week, I've had three anxiety attacks, one woke me up, and I've been really sensitive when it comes to crying. I cried over everything I had to do while feeling so weak, I cried when I was yelled at, I cried when I realized I had to miss an event I wanted to attend, and then I cried just because I feel so physically worn through. I've also been feeling like no one cares and that everyone is just pretending to, which ended in more tears, and I have no one to talk to who understands. I was just hoping some of you might have advice on easing some of these things or if it is normal to be this way with anxiety?
I know exactly how you feel hun, people really dont realize how bad anxiety can be, it can be so lonely and scary.
I used to suffer panic attacks every day and night, until it led to severe depression.
Have you been to the drs?
These are my personal suggestions that can help ease it a little but you must push your self to do them.
A really good routine needs to be put in place, waking up with an alarm clock, waking naturally can bring on a panic attack for me.
Eating regular especially breakfast, bananas are meant to be good for anxiety, walking in nature, try seeing people who are fun and not judgmental.
Make sure you look after you, nice long baths , watching light hearted comedy on tv, try meditation with youtube and or yoga.
You must put your self first and be a little selfish, haveing anxiety and or depression is like your body and brain telling you we’ve had enough of the stress and worry, we need to shut down and reboot, if that makes sense?
Hope ive helped,
