I have posted on here recently about my anxiety..but it seems so severe..my nerves are totally shot.
I tried watching tv ."Sherriffs are coming" .a fly on the wall documentary programme...but i can't watch it ...it is so stressful i feel like i cannot sit still...cannot deal with the conflict, it is excruciating to sit through something as simple as this. I feel l cannot relax...i don't feel at peace at all feel like wriggling like a worm..not that it would help me. What should i do? Seems like i'm near permanently stuck in stress response.
I spoke to my son on Skype last night..at first he was a bit impatient with me and that gave me the same feeling. I want to stop feeling this bad.
I think my stress reponse is bust totally.
I think it is Anxiety because I am the same....i cant concentrate to sit and watch tele...its like I feel so spaced out am in a world of my own. I get up and pace around and look for anything to distract me from how i feel inside. Its like I am agitated or something but have been told by the doctor that is is Anxiety. The only thing i can say is that time and meds do make it improve and it does goes away.
Peopl who don't suffer or understand anxiety to some point sometimes can't understand why we can't control it. Make sure you're in care of a doctor so all options can be explored. Good Luck!
Thanks for the kind words..I hope time will help. This morning i woke up following my drug (zolpidem) sleep. 5.15am today (longer than normal) but then 2 hours of stress, worrying and anxiety about my impending insanity. My mind won't let me think of anything else. Stress gets me up in the end because i can't stand laying there..but then i've got to face a another day..near contstant anxiety..lack of concentration, fear of going anywhere public because of my panic. Straight to the loo..then pacing up and down, jumpy and stressed. I force myself to take my partner to work, although I shouldn't really drive. Then home and another visit to the loo. I then get in a state...I crave normality but feel it will never return. I think today is the day I'm going to end up strapped to a bed in the hospital. I feel so depressed I feel like ending it all, but i promsied my partner i would keep fighting..but can i cope? I decide to walk to the woods..try to calm down and it works to some degree. I feel a little better. I get home still trapped in my mind..not part of the world that everyone else enjoys. I hope i'll get better one day...because this is too much
Hi im in the same boat myself. But i tend to get it at work. If i come across a problem at work a huge amount of anxiety builds up and stays with me the whole day. Feel really stressed. Get a bad head ache. The right side of my head feels numb like its shuting down. Im on sertraline but not sure if they work. Some days its just with me as soon as i get up. I work away from home all week and i am constantly anxious until i get home on friday night. If i was you i look into therapy. Im going to look into it.
