Has every physical symptom under the sun since April this year day in day out driving me mad it is does it get any better people over time? Had 2 full blown panic attacks in April and ever since then my lie had been hell suicidal everyday weird thoughts etc. PLEASE SAY IT GETS BETTER I can't take any more of this day in day out feel like I'm fighting a losing battle😢
Honestly everyone is different. I've had anxiety/painc attacks everyday going on 7 years!! I've tried every single medicine out there and nothing helps. Everyday I feel will be my last. Have you tried any medications to help?
I feel for you that's a awful long time have you felt you have for any better over time? I've had this constant 24/7 every physical symptom under the sun since April and just feel really weird everyday like in detached from the world, Yeah I have tried fluoxetine didn't work so they put me on 45mg of mitrazpine also to help with sleep .
It comes and goes. Sometimes I'll feel ok and then other times I want to scream! It's definitely not like it was in the beginning when it all started. I feel for you too into have had every symptom you can possible think of.
Ahhh okay that's a bit reassuring that it does get a bit better at least hopefully I'm not feeling like this forever🙁, the worst Symtoms for me are shortness of breath everyday and derealization feels like am seeing the world with a piece of glass in front of me if you get me.
it will get better , my sister used to have anxiety back then and now shes completely fine, dont worry , always have hope xx
Oh yeah almost like your in a dream like state. I get that the worse feeling. I'll also get the feeling of passing out. Very scary
That's music to my ears, I've read on here that people have sufferd anxiety 24/7 ,physical Symtoms 24/7 for years and years ,hopefully that dosnt happen to me I've had 7 month and feel I can't take a day longer🙁x
It does get better. It honestly does once you learn to accept it for what it is and manage it. Theres those few symptoms that linger but overall it will improve. It takes time. This stuff comes and goes over time. If its horrific you need to speak to your Doctor.
you wont lose this battle. Its just bad right now. I remember when i thought i couldnt handle it and wanted to hide away or be gone.a few times but i do know fully this stuff waxes and wanes. It plays a cycle. But it improved. It does. Speak to your doctor, be sure to be in therapy of some sort it holds together the sanity part and try very hard to let it wash over you instead of being an active participant and becoming scared out of your mind. Fear feeds it. Its adrenaline..no fear its so much more manageable.
This disorder sucks big time. You are not alone at all. 25% of the world has an anxiety disorder of some type and 18% of us all experience bits of torture with these anxiety attacks. You are not alone.
you are in over drive. Fight ot flight is mal functioning and everything is heightened and rushing around in you. It will pass. It will.
Learn to self calm this. Belly breathe, yoga, shower, meditation,theraoy cbt, dbt,, eft..anything that works. Learn about it alot and watch utube videos on the science of an panic attack.and very helpful to understand the biology then you wont fear it.
Please believe me try and not think when it is at peak. Just belly breathe and learn to let your mind escape it. It is a ten minute cycle if you dont feed fear into. Your training your mal function and telling it yes yes im so scared you are correct we are in danger. Then it heightens and odd symptoms go awry. Good luck. Believe me it gets better.
Hey luke.
Sorry for my english but i hope it will be readable.
First. Like you i "new" at anxiety business. And we have similar symptoms so ill share with you my thoughts
1.try to treat healing like a "job" every day improve yourself gradually. For instance. Breathing problem 24/7. Try to achieve 30min of relaxing breathing. Then the next day an hour. And keep improving.
2. Have a diary. 3And write all your "achievements" and what was the reason's for them. And when you look at the diary you can find a pattern .
3.be concentrat in the healing. Ignore other people. If you think all the day " I'm suffere so much (and you are. I know that) and all the people in the streets smile and having fun and enjoy life" you will only have deterioration and more depression
Hope you'll be better. I will write some more of my thought's
YES it does get better. Start learning technic thats help you calm down Tell your self it's not real and breath. The mind is a very powerful thing and will trick you into thinking the worst.
Hi Allen thanks for your advice yeah I'm currently doing mindfullness breathing meditation 3 times a day which I think helps abit but still when I'm doing it in trying to catch my breath during it and I've need tried keeping a diary I'll try it🙂I also go for 2 walks a day but during these walks I literally have to force myself to go out again thanks for your reply
I hope it does get better because I havnt felt better since I had my panic attacks in April ever since that day my life has changed dramatically I'm beginning to lose hope badly☹
Luke, what you're going though right now is one of the worst phases of anxiety....the begining. Its always the worst time for someone during the first few weeks or months while they try not only to weather the effects of anxiety but also try to understand what the f**k is going on.
To answer your question....YES, things will get better for you but the bad news is that you're just begining this long hard road towards recovery. You need to see help from a professional / counselor and from your family. Comfort and a way to just vent and talk about all of this will go a long way.
Again... you will get better over time and the good days will happen much more often then the bad days but you NEED to stay as positive as possible. This is a mental trick your mind is playing on you. The anxiety has driven your brain into overdrive and your brain simply can't handle whats going on and its causing you to think irrationally.
Please friend, keep your head up. You need to keep pushing forward. This is one of the hardest tests of willpower a person can go though but again keep in mind that you will get better but you'll need to prepare yourself for the fact that this will NOT be over quickly and will last a while. You are strong enough to get though this...even if you may not think so at this moment.
Yeah it is truely awful does it get any better though I meen soon as I go out I think I'm going to faint and die and stuff because I get that dizzy and really faint and think I can't breath felt like this everyday for 8 month now I've had heart flutters everyday shortness of breath everyday and derealization awful to have everyday sick of it just want it to go thank for you advice 🙂
Forgot to mention in currently receiving CBT of my therapist but I don't think it's helping👎
