Today I've been ok, but since about 6pm my anxiety has kicked in I feel weird I don't feel myself I'm spaced out I feel scared I'm looking about and don't feel real but the scariest part is my grain feels foggy and like I'm thinking about loads when I'm not thinking about anything but my anxiety and fearing a panic attack anyone else have this?
Yep, quite often! I find it helps to ground myself, look around, look at objects, describe them to yourself, tell yourself what they are used for, imagine your favourite book or film, imagine how you would behave if you were a character that was introduced, also, try some chamomile tea to help with the relaxing process. It's never easy getting from panic to relaxtation, and different things work for different people, just remember you are not alone, you are one of many sufferers, all with similar thoughts and feelings. Try and talk yourself out of a panic attack, tell yourself it's silly, you don't need to panic! Talk to somebody, a family member, if you feel people don't get you, talk to me! I share your pain, reply any time you want, or message me any time you want, you never have to fight anxiety alone, sometimes it just takes some reassuring words from someone in the same boat
Thankyou for replying! I do tend to do a lot of things you've mentioned like looking at objects etc and I do find it works but sometimes it can take over! I've been okay the last few days so keeping on the positive side!
I appreciate you taking the time to reply x
No problem at all, keep the communication open when you are feeling low, that always works best for me, even if it's on here with people who can share your pain and problems! Have a nice relaxed weekend
Thankyou! You also have a nice weekend
