literally worried about everything completely on edge checking things all the time, asking my children if theyre ok constantly catasphrophising in my head googling things that are on my mind, which is feeding it feel in a state of panic all the time, waking in the night going to bed early as exhausted with over thinking my mind is going into overdrive my period started yesterday and it doubles the intensity
Hi , so sorry you are going through this . Praying for you . Anxiety is horrible ! What is a very good natural relaxer is lemon balm tea . Try to relax , put your mind on something you really enjoy ,one thing thst helps me is playing a bubble popping game on my kindle . I hope you feel better soon
thank you
its like my mind is working in overdrive
tight chest, i feel like im completely absorbed by it - sure my hormones have exasperated it
i dont know why though?
Chemicals change in your body . Have you had your vitamin levels checked ? Low or high levels can cause anxiety ,especially vitamin D as it is a pro hormone … It also helps anxiety . The only way to get the vitamin D that our bodies need is sunshine or supplements . Please get yours checked ,it may just be the answer
my iron and vitamin D were low a while ago - didnt know Vit D contributed to hormones
Yes actually vitamin D has a function from head to toe .. Low levels come with a long list of symptoms . Causing a nightmare for your mind . Anxiety , depression , agoraohobia , dementia , panic just to name a few … What were your levels ?
254
Your vitamin D levels were at 254 ???!
yes 254 ng/L
Do you have any other symptoms ? Like nausea ? Stomach issues ? Dizziness ?
this is interesting as three years ago mine was low normal what is level supposed to be?
Desired levels are suppose to be from 40 to 80 ng ,levels above 100ng is high ,however
Anxiety , stomach issues and panic , can also be from high levels
the information i have it they should be between 200-
900
Way to high emma ! Can i ask where you got your information ?a count of
its in my online medical records with the normal ranges (as above as reference)
Gp told me my 254 was low
Are you in america emma ?
no Uk
That can explain the number count ,yet you say its low ,that can still be a factor to your anxiety /panic … Do you have any other symptoms ?
Another way in helping anxiety / panic is burning a candle ,put your mind on the flame , its reprogramming your thoughts
