Hey, so I suppose I am posting about this to see if other people can relate. I suffer so bad especially at the moment from severe Panic Disorder & Health Anxiety. My partner has NEVER experienced any kind of mental health issue before and he really does not understand how I feel. He tries to but lets be real anyone who has not actually experienced it will never fully get it will they. He often tries "tough love" on me where he will just tell me I need to get help and sort myself out because it is really affecting him. It sounds bad but I do actually understand it can be draining for our families when they do not experience it themselves and it often leaves me feeling so guilty. Has anyone else experienced this and if so did you find anything that helped? I just feel really alone in it all right now
I have panic disorder and anxiety. Im currently on no meds and its a struggle . I actually just expierenced one in the car . First thing i notice is my heart rate , speeds up , I cant get a full breathe. I feel like My heart eill jump of my chest or Ill pass out . I then feel sick and tired after , it drains me . Not only does it drain me but my boyfriend and my kids . Some days ill hide it and some days I cannot . I am a very outgoing person this has made me recluse. Ive had it off and on for 20 years . Its been bad the last couple years . Extreme fear is causing me to live a hermit lifestyle. I still work fulltime and go to school online . Ive been struggling . Those that dont feel what we feel will never undertand . are you currently on meds ? I actually am going to take some starting this next week .
