Anxiety taking control

[Samantha34]

I feel like my anxiety has taken control of my life. I worry about everything non-stop all day everyday. A couple weeks ago I thought I was getting better and than had an anxiety attack and since then I have been having the hardest time. My anxiety seems worse than it was before. I have just wanted to be alone lately but I can't because I got a puppy and have to take care of it, so relaxing doesn't happen to much and don't get a lot of sleep at night because of the puppy. Just feel stuck and like I'm getting worse.

I just don't know what to do. It's been getting worse than better. I can't keep living in constant fear all the time it's driving me crazy.

This is how I feel too.... all waiting for something bad to happen. I have a puppy as well, plus a husband (who looks at me like I am crazy sometimes), and 3 little girls to look after. I worry constantly about everything!

Do you continue to worry about things that you are really afraid of or do you know realize that it is the anxiety that makes you worry and just cant stop your mind from racing?

I know that it's my anxiety and I try to tell myself that its stupid and that its nothing to be afraid of but my mind won't let me believe myself.

Yeah I know from the moment I wake up until I go to sleep I worry about the non sense things that I use to not worry about but I can't stop it. I know that I don't need to be afraid but my mind won't let me believe it.

Are you taking any medications to help calm you a bit?
