I’m really scared. I have been nauseous for 3 or 4 months now. It gets worse every day and I can barley eat or go places. My parents say it’s my anxiety, emetophobia and constpation. I feel like giving up. My parents won’t take me to the doctor until my appointment on the 13th. But the pain and nausea are getting worse. I can barely sleep at night. What should I do? Will I throw up?
Anxiety hits everyone differently. When my anxiety hit me back in 2014 I was the same way. I didn’t sleep well or eat much for at least the first 2 months, and eventually I got my appetite back. Try eating simple foods that are easier to digest because nausea can be caused by the same fact that you body needs food. My anxiety was about my health. I thought I would die while I was in public or in my sleep. All I can say is that it’s 2018 and I’m still alive and kicking so it was just a lot of overthinking caused by my anxieties and panic attack’s. There were times where I felt weak and wanted it to end as well but kept on fighting the bad thoughts with positivity. Think good thoughts and know that there is people that care about you even strangers like me. It gets better trust me you have to fight don’t give up. What helped me was eating healthier foods, working out at least 3 times a week even for 10 minutes, also doing yoga and meditation for at least 5-10 minutes a day to stop the overthinking. It is easier to focus on the bad but you have to focus on positives even though it is difficult at first. Think to yourself I am blessed, I am healthy, and I am happy. Positive thinking has a powerful effect on your mind and body. Sometimes the anxiety gets louder. How I would stop it was by yelling “ f**k you anxiety I’m in charge not you.” Then proceed to doing some meditation and breathing techniques with yoga music in background to focus on, and think positively. It would help me a lot and I hope it helps you too. Also there is herb tea called chamomile which helps with nausea and stomach aches as well. For sleep try using some lavender moisturizer before bed or some type of aroma therapy to ease the mind before bed as well.
Hello from a friend, it's hard , it's horrible and it's a very long process I get that. I feel sick to my stomach nearly everyday it last for hours and hours but I've never been sick before. I know it's hard dealing with your parents but they probably don't understand as much as they try for me I have to do everything myself and I force the situation upon myself. There's loads of call services when you need that extra somebody so or please don't suffer alone! Just ring the doctors yourself and ask if you can speak to somebody if not go to the hospital and tell them you need to speak to somebody. It's a very hard and very lonely place but don't do it alone.
Well I’m only 13 and I don’t think they believe me very much so they won’t take me to first care or the hospital. The feeling and Pain is getting worse so I don’t know what else to do.
Is it just nausea or are you throwing up as well? It's possible to develop a disorder specifically around reoccurring vomitting or feeling sick to occur in childhood called CVS. This can be caused by emotional stress, so if you're already suffering anxiety it will be contributing to it.
Nausea
Im so sorry to hear but please go to them plea beg and show your parents how much you need help. But please don't do anything silly.
I’ve tried and I get in trouble. I’m so scared it’s something bad and it will just keep getting worse 😭
Nausea on its own could be many many things. I know your mentioned pain too, is this abdominal? It could be you're suffering from food intolerances, IBS, health anxiety, stress, hormonal imbalance or something like CVS. There are so many things at your age, that are not life threatening, so please try not to jump to the worse case scenario which I know is hard and scary.
If you're in the UK, you could try a line like 111 for as advice. If not, try to remind yourself that you've had this several months and you're still here. Try to take deep breaths and calm yourself until you can see your dr. Between now and then, write down all your symptoms, any times during the day it is worse or less. Any triggers you can identify. This will help your Dr assess you.
I know it's so so hard and it's awful for you, they are probably more scared than you because they don't know what's going on really. You need to be really strong and stand up for yourself, go to somebody at school and find somebody, a teacher that's in charge and talk to them. Tell them how it is for you and explain as much as you can, explain how hard you are trying but you're scared of getting in trouble and ask them to help you because they will. Even if they just speak to your parents it can change a lot for you. Please look after yourself and try your hardest to speak to somebody, it will get better I promise. I know it doesn't feel like it now but it will but you have to reach out because nobody else will.
I get horrible nausea and stomach pain with my anxiety. I can’t eat fir days when it’s bad. Your anxiety is probably causing you to over think it but it can be really scary. Just remember anxiety is horrible but it can’t hurt you. It’s just a feeling. Easy to say I know but I’ve been there and the quicker you remember that the easier it’s gets.
The only thing I can suggest with the gp is seeing if you can get a telephone appointment in the meantime just to put your mind at ease. Most practices do it now just call up in the morning and ask if someone can give you a call.
