You can get short bursts of adrenaline that can come and go. Anxiety is pretty much all about the adrenaline, it can come in all shapes and sizes, not always just about panic attacks.

What's going on in your mind during the day, are you really tense? :)

Not really. I get frustrated with being lightheaded. So I feel aggravated. Then kids come in being loud. I almost felt ill. I hope this is normal

What is important here is you see how they come and go

Regardless of the reason why you begin to feel your anxiety coming on, you're starting to get the fact that it is temporary and that's great.

Subconsciously your mind is beginning to realize that anxiety is the cause of your ill feeling

Build on that and take an even bigger step

Well for 15 years it consumed me more or less

Wasn't until I found my way through research and sites like this til I was able to overcome my anxiety

But now I'm completely at peace with everything

I sometimes wish that I would have gotten it sooner but I realize how much time there is left that I can enjoy

Thanks, I feel better. Need to b do something and quick. Everyday gets worse

Just don't let it anymore

Again, much easier said

But that's the key, taking the validity away from your thoughts of something serious

We all die. We have slowly been dying everyday since birth

No reason to speed the process up in our minds

I feel like I get short bout of anxiety also. And the bouts can be on and off for several days and then I could be weeks and sometimes even months with little to no symptoms. In fact today is the first time that I have visited the site since I think November of last year. But I was sitting in church on Easter Sunday, sitting completely still, and I felt lightheaded out of nowhere. That set off the whole chain reaction to where I got nervous and my heart was racing and all I could think of was passing out in church and everybody seeing it. I got myself under control but I have not yet fully recovered and I had the same sensation yesterday at work. Which was two days later. Today, I worked at home and felt good most of the day but still don't feel hundred percent.

But I get the same thing where I feel lightheaded even if I'm sitting still, I feel the pressure headache behind my eyes, and my face will feel tingly and I get awful nervous and throws my stomach into a mess and then I end up in the bathroom.

It's just been bad the last couple of days to where I felt like I had to visit all of my friends on this site so I feel like I'm not alone.

Hi everyone I am new on here. Looking forward to getting some advice and hopefully giving some too. I just feel terrible. At the moment I really just want to be alone, I can't cope being with people I feel suffocated. I am meant to be seeing a friend tomorrow watching movies all day. I am really gonna struggle with that as I hate staying in (makes me feel down) and I just get anxious sitting watching TV. I do exercise a lot outdoors which makes me feel great. Already i am trying to think how I can get out of it. Any advice? Am I going mad?
