Hi.
Ocassionally I get a feeling like i am just about to die, I would feel fine beforehand and all of a sudden it hits me. It's one of the weirdest symptoms to explain as its not like i think im going to die, its not a thought, its a feeling. The only way i could try to describe it is as if my whole body is suddenly empty, i cant think or feel it only lasts say 20 seconds maybe less but its so scary.
Anyone else get this?

Sometimes people get these feelings, I suffer from them sometimes because of my health problems. I know the reasons in my case. I also know your GP would take this horrible feeling serious and would like to discuss the problem with Him. Make an appointment and a list of the reasons why you feel the way you do. Also ask for a double appointment so you have some extra time to talk

Do you think these feelings could be caused by an underlying problem or solely on anxiety? I suppose i should speak to my doctor about this, but everytime ive been they haven't been exactly helpful. Just send me away stamping my issues as anxiety and leave it at that.

You need to discuss your concerns with your GP. Make a list of your concerns so you do not miss anything out. Depending on your list you may find a double appointment would be a good idea
Do you know what has caused your Anxiety. To know the reasons you are half way there you can begin to address your fears/stress/Anxiety

Oh man do I ever, and my eyes feel like there are needles in them...I keep telling myself this will pass and I just started ha
I get like this too. It’s really scary and it ruins my whole night or day. What I have been doing is “grounding” myself . I touch something and say to myself this is here in real life and I’m still here alive and breathing. And I put my feet on the ground and walk and say I am here walking and living. And I touch stuff and sometimes walk outside and feel the air. Also, I get in my car and drive with the windows down even if it is -0 outside😂 And it puts my mind at ease. Kinda werid I know but it’s oddly calming !
Well you gotta do whatever works for you 😂 I do get why though completely, sometimes its just hard to convince yourself back to reality if yaknow what mean haha. Think im gonna try that grounding stuff ive heard alot of people talk about it but never bothered with it myself
