I'm so sick of everything being so difficult

I'm so sick of everything being so difficult. My boyfriend had to go the er today due to a bad cut and I had horrible panic there the whole time. I was trying to stay strong for him but felt so much anxiety I thought I was going to throw up. I get so nauseous when I get anxious, it's ruining my life. I'm getting so fusturated that everything is so difficult, I'm on medication and see a counselor but it doesn't seem to be helping.

I get nauseous too when my anxiety is high, it really is awful, I found cold things bring it down to a more bearable unnoticeable sick feeling.
How long have you been in therapy? Sometimes it takes a while to get comfortable and make strives, if you've been in therapy a while maybe consider changing therapists, I haven't always clicked with every therapist I've been with and it can be tricky when you don't feel comfortable with them.
Sorry this week has been so bad for you, mine's been bad too. Hope you'll be okay soon and your nauseousness will wear off in no time.

Wow, have I been there! Back in 2010 my husband had to get surgery done on his wrist. We live in a small area but had to go to heavily populated area of our state for his surgery. I was stuck in a waiting room with no windows and suppose to wait for the surgery to be done. I asked the receptionist to watch my kids and went into the bathroom to throw-up. I came back out and then they let me in the room with my husband. All the drs. and nurses that came in to talk to my husband kept on asking me if I was all right? I had to call my sister who lived in the area to come and get the kids and I and wait for them to call me to pick up my husband. I didn't get to get him until about 6 o'clock at night because of delays! I got lost in that big old city and it was extremely stressful but I made it through. I still have a hard time driving to that city because it makes me feel sick to my stomach. Try not to focus on the negative of that situation try to focus on the positive of it. You made it through the situation, sure you felt sick to your stomach, but you still made it through. Give yourself credit where it is due. I still have a lot of issues with my stomach unfortunately it goes along with the anxiety but you know what it doesn't make you, you. It is a small part of you and that is ok. I hope that things get better for you.
