Hey folks been struggling awhile with anixty and lately it's like it's become health anxity and I won't leave my house etc. Docs came out and saod I have severe anxity and gave me propranolol to take along with my mirtazapine I'm already on that doesn't do anything. I suffer from vertigo and it's flared up latley since I had a migraine and It's made me feel so anxious and scared I generally belive I'm dying it's awful. The doc said it's anxity but I feel it's something worse. I feel numb and empty qnd not real and I feel like an empty shell and my head can't stop obsession over thoughts that in dying. It's crippling me. My eyes feel so sensitive to light and I keep getting awful head aches from all the worry it'd no wonder I have migraines etc I just feel a differnt person I can't think about anything postive I just feel I'm dying and feel I can't face anything. Docs are sending out an anxity person to help me but i feel I'm too far gone and will never be ok and that I'm dying.
Only time I get a little break is late evening when am shattered and when I'm a sleep. But i dread waking up facing the day a head it's awful as am anxious wreck. I won't leave my room and I feel too nervous talking to anyone. I feel in such a mess I just feel I'm not in my own body that it's freaking me out more. I've had deprilization before but this feels worse :-(
Well your first good move was reaching out to this website. I have already had SOOOO much support and ive only been on here for like 2 days! I have horrible anxiety aswell. Sometimes i feel like i have no energy,Can't eat,Can't sleep,Can't stop thinking of why am i here,Cant function in general. I understand what you said about the sun and all that. I have the same problem. sometimes i feel like i want to wear sunglasses in my house so i close my curtains. I was told i just have relly sencitive eyes. Also I get super bad headaches..... i have reaolized it is from not being able to sleep and from my head spinning with so many thoughts. Sometimes i am so tired when i stand up i feel dixxy for like a few seconds. i have always been a over reacter to EVERYTHING and with anxiety the hardest thing is just convincing myself it is all in my head. once i do though i am fine. if it is hard for you to leave invite some loved ones over for dinner maby. if you are on your own and everything. I truly hope i helped and keep your chin up it can only get better!!! and when you least expect it...... WHAT DOES NOT KILL YOU MAKES YOU STRONGER!!!!!!!! Oh and when your anxiaty flaires up try to stay in a dim cool room. it helps me. STAY CHILL
Thanks folks I'm surrounded by many looking after me and keeping me calm haha. Docs are getting me someone to come help me deal with my anxity and it seems the propamomol is helping for now. I agree it's hard to talk sense to your self with such touch anxity. On an evening and night I feel more nornal and more control but blimey morning is the worst. Yes I read anxity can make our eyes over sensitive to light etc. I shall keep trying sunglasses for now. Thanks
