Hello all. New to the forum and new to anxiety issues. Hope to be able to ask some questions and get answers to what's been going on in my life as of late.

Over the past couple of months I've been feeling over anxious in general as well as having a problem with being alone. The issues even extended into sometimes not wanting to fall asleep in the dark. None of the issues were severe and I was able to use a product called Kavinace to calm my mind and quell the anxiety. Last Friday my girlfriend went away over night on business. I was feeling apprehensive all day about going home alone. When I finally did I was suddenly overwhelmed with the feeling that I couldn't be home alone. I started breathing heavily and my heart was beating faster and I felt like I was going crazy. I ended up having to make my son come home to finally calm down enough to relax and fall asleep. Ever since I've felt strange. I have no appetite. I have diarrhea and I generally feel like I have no interest in anything. I feel like I'm overly emotional and still can't be alone. I have no health insurance so I haven't seen a doctor. I've been taking some supplements like Kavinace, Travacor and Cortisol Manager. I just don't know what to do and I want these feelings to end so I can live my life. I own my own business and feel like I don't want to make decisions or anything. Any help would be greatly appreciated and thanks in advance.

Hi, I have been feeling the same way. All of a sudden I have developed this anxiety. I have recently moved away from my family and boyfriend to a new state to get a job. All of a sudden I've developed this emotionless anxious feeling towards mostly my boyfriend. I have no clue why because I love him and don't want to be with anyone else. These feelings give me diarrhea too and make me sick to my stomach. I am not hungry ( usually I am always hungry). I want these feelings to end too. I just emailed a hypnotist in my area. I figured it would be a good place to start getting a grip on anxiety without getting doctors involved. Maybe you should try it too!

Having no insurance sucks. You might be able to find free med clinics somewhere near you (charity or government ran). A lot of areas have government ran mental health clinics where you can see doctors for a very reduced fee (depending on your income). You will have to fill out a bunch of forums and give proof of income, etc. When I did it, I had to pay something like $20 for a visit. Now I have Medicare so I pay nothing.

So, yeah, you just need to see a doc and get this straightened out.
