have been suffering from anxiety for about five months now, it all started when I came out to my parents as "Bi-sexual/lesbian". This caused so much stress, and it was shortly after that, this started.
I get chest pains,stressed out all the time, I only feel okay when i'm at home.
I don't even feel like i'm here sometimes, at school is like hell, it feels like I'm living a dream.
I tell myself every morning "it will be a good day", but i just start thinking about my anxiety as soon as i step out the door, waiting for the next panic attack to happen, worrying about any ache or pain, thinking i have cancer or a heart attack.
I can't even think straight anymore, i just want to feel like myself again.
I excersize, eat extremely healthy,and nothing helps.
I need medication, is there anyway my doctor would prescribe me anti anxiety medication for a 16 year old?
I CAN'T TAKE THIS ANYMORE.
I've stopped doing things i like, i've stopped going out as often,
I'm fricken 16, i should be out enjoying myself on the weekends, not sitting inside my house like a prisoner.
I can't go shopping, i start thinking in a cycle of horrible thoughts, and i've even stopped driving.
I want my old self back, i feel as if I have no hope left..
This anxiety has been taking such a toll on me,
my days either go like this:
I fight the anxiety and become physically and emotionally drained,and ends up getting worse at night,
or
Letting it happen and experiencing a sense of "depersonalization" all day until I get home.
I don't know what to do anymore..
I CONSTANTLY think I am dying of some horrible illness, although I didn't start thinking these thoughts until my anxiety got out of my control.
