I  will fall asleep and wake up scared out of no where through the whole night. sometimes my body will start trembling like im cold but im not,

5

6

I have all them symptoms too it's awful isn't it I also sleep with the light on ...I get headache blurred vision dizzyness feeling sick and loads more

7

How long have you been this way

8

It's so hard living with this anxiety day after day, and even harded or family to understand, feeling scared and convinced that every little pain is heart related and going to kill me. Sick of feeling sick, worried and scared all the time

same here i am now seeing a therapist to hepl me. i will not take medications because i have used them befor and got all the bad side effects. its awful because im already 23 and i still have to sleep with my mom or on an air mattres next to her room. thats how scared i am.

 

10

yes its very hard and its all the time. its even harder that they dont understand

11

Honestly how you have just described yourself sounds like your describing me I've just gone 24 and I'm having therapy too and I won't take medication either the side effects was horrible to much to handle and medication was also increasing my anxiety....its horrible when I'm in bed ill nearly doze of to sleep then I'm awake looking round the room scared with the duvet up to eyes I feel ridiculous writing this but it's me

12

i have been like this for almost a month

13

How long have you been like this? How old are you?

14

ALMOST A MONTH IM 23

15

I can relate to the extream fear, mines like an intense fear of Iminent death or total madness I litterally feel like I loose touch with reality momentarily it's very scary. But mine seems to come from having bizarre scary thoughts about existance/derealisation rather than heart problems.

I also keep off all the meds, if this is anxiety it's very scary and it's bizarre how it affects us in different ways.

16

YES IT IS I DO NOT WISH THIS ON ANYONE EVER!'

17

Have you spoken to a doctor?

I'm 27 year old who only a year ago was really sociable used to use the gym all the time go out alot, ever since my first panic attack last year in the gym I slowly started withdrawing from alot of activities I used to love, even struggling to go to the supermarket and lost a Stone in weight. Try and get it sorted before you let it get to how I've become because it seems alot harder to fight it now. It's like you need to retrain your mind to relax maybe try mindfullness mediation it might sound daft but it's starting to benefit in some ways. Good luck.

YES I HAVE I AM NOW SEEING A THERAPIST TO DO TREATMENTS THAT HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH MEDICATION
