Woah. Dude. It's only been a month on meds. You cannot expect yourself to get better automatically. Yes it's hard to deal with for awhile, and there are going to be bad times. But you WILL get better with time. You cannot just give up because it's difficult.

You have to understand, we're all going through this together. Personally, I've been going through a bad bout of anxiety but I'm still standing. And so you are please don't give up.

Hi Max, it will get better. I know it doesn't feel like that now but it will get better. Reach out to someone you trust who can help you. Let them help. That's not so easy to do but let them help carry your worries and manage your fears. Don't give up hope.

Hey max. I know this site is UK base and I'm from the US. I've always wanted to go to To like the England or Ireland I am irish. What part do you live in and it will get better trust me.

Symptoms of anxiety. I get those too. I have shortness of breath as we speak, and my head feels foggy and just not all there. I get twitches and cramps and headache as well. It's just anxiety, there's nothing ACTUALLY wrong with you.

These meds take 2-3 monthsnto work sometimes. Until then it's going to suck. I've been on Celexa for about a month and a half and I'm still having bad weeks. Awful weeks. But we have to carry on and not let it get to us.

You have to understand that by being scared of these symptoms and by letting them affect your life so drastically, they will get worse. You have o learn to let these thjngs happen and carry on as normal. Eventually it will get easier to deal with it WILL get better. I can absolutely promise you that

Hi Max, don’t give up. I know how you feel as I’m suffering with extreme anxiety myself and I’ve barely left my bedroom in a week. I’m terrified and so scared but I’ve been here so many times and it ALWAYS gets better. Keep talking, believe me chatting to people on this forum is really helping me right now. We are stronger together 💪

Hello Max

I'm sorry your feeling this way. Please don't give up. Things will get better. Just keep on pushing through!! Stay positive and love your life! Try and do things to take your mind off of it!

Max, I had ALL of your symptoms in my twenties.  Eye floaters, weird feeling in head, light flashes, aches, pains, spasms, etc

I am now in my fifties and doing well.

EVERY ONE OF THOSE SYMPTOMS WERE DUE TO ANXIETY AND STRESS!

Do Not give up!  One day you will look back and be SO GLAD you hung in there . It’s just a tiny part of your life and things can definitely get better! 

Get counseling for anxiety. Helped me a lot.

Listen to Mindfulness meditations for anxiety, peace, depression, on you tube.

Theres so much to enjoy in life. The alternative is not better.

Hi Max, how are you doing? Feeling absolutely terrible myself right now, just keep talking like I am and you will feel less alone in all this. You will get better.

Please do not take your life. I know how horrible it is to live with anxiety and depression. I can’t take antidepressants because they add to the anxiety, and more. Please call your doctor and get over those pills, but DON’T DO IT COLD TURKEY. You have to wean off. Also, ask for anxiety medication. That will help you. Please feel free to reach out to me and others. Call a suicide hotline. This is not an unusual reaction to the medication. Please hold on. I am sending love and prayers your way.
