Thanks Dahila. I will put in an effort to write more posts :) Unfortunately I'm always super busy ;) Working 14-16 hour days now and then add to that the psychology studies lol Still, I'll try...
This type of thing is extremely common. When you're body is so wired all the time from anxiety, you will even start looking for the symptom, even if it has disappeared. If you have determined that...

I understand 100%. I went about 5 years ago and I just wasn't ready. We can want to be better so bad, but you can still be not ready. The reason for that, in my humble opinion, is that our nervous...
Honestly, the last thing you need is supplements or any type of medication. Trust me, I had exactly the same problem you do and all it did was make things worse. It's going to sound crazy, but the...
It's certainly not a choice. All I can say is that a combination of medication and therapy has helped me quite a bit. Even though I still get some anxiety from time to time, mainly when I leave the...
I really know what you are going through, I had exactly the same symptom. It is caused by hyperventilation during a panic attack. Even though it is nothing to worry about, it can feel damn scary when...
Pins and needles is extremely common for panic attacks, so do not worry, it is completely normal and it will not hurt you. When your body is under stress, it is normal that your body is going to...
During my worst anxiety fits, a cup of chamomile tea worked miracles for me. It thought it could not be that simple, but omg the difference in sleep was astonishing. I went from not being able to...
I was diagnosed at age 20, but once I started looking back the anxiety has always been there.
Hi Molang and welcome to the bunch. First, let me reassure you that what you are feeling is quite normal if you suffer from anxiety. Just like you, I've always been quite the nervous person. I've...
Unfortunately with medication, it only suppresses your symptoms. Don't get me wrong though, I've been on medication for many years and it takes the edge of when I need it most. I've dragged myself...
I understand completely. I also get heavy attacks of nausea and even diarrhoea because of the anxiety. After a while, one becomes really good at monitoring themselves, so we can actually make the...
The only thing that really works for me is to remind myself it is just a feeling and accepting that the feelings and thoughts are there. It also helps to check my breathing once in a while, since I...
The worst thing about anxiety is that you cannot force yourself to get better, it just gradually gets better over time. The thing that helped me the most during my worst fits of panic is to realise...
I know how you feel, I've been hit with quite a few this week and its driving me mad. However, with the necessary rest I've been starting to feel like I get a bit more grip on things again, even...
I usually get blurry vision for no apparent reason, or trouble focussing, all connected to my anxiety. Unfortunately, focussing on the problem usually makes it worse and even more unpleasant. Can you...
Yah, I still get it from time to time, especially when I been sitting behind my computer for way to long. It helps to do some exercises to loosen the shoulder muscles, even if it is only 5 minutes a...
Great ideas thanks :) Woke up again with anxiety, not as bad as yesterday, but still very prominent. Finally calmed down last night with the help of some meditation.
Also, so tired of having this constant anxiety. Taking deep breaths frequently, although the only thing that can really calm me at the moment is guided meditation and sleep. Can't wait for this rough...
I know exactly what you mean. I've spend months trying to figure it out. Doctor and psychologist said it was due to tensing the shoulder muscles up all the time, which can also happen if you spend a...
So I've been feeling really rough over the past couple of days. The exposure therapy went brilliant, but once I got home I was plagued with terrible anxiety and the accompanying symptoms, the most...
Unfortunately, worrying is a part of life. I struggle myself at the moment with my own anxiety and I have really good days and really bad days. The thing that helps me to divert some of my worries is...
I have to agree, but we need to cope with it somehow. When you stop being afraid of the symptoms, this is where the solution will be found. Unfortunately, I still feel scared of some symptoms, but it...
