Me two I stayed scared of everything

I hate it. I have always been scared of things though. just seems that the more trauma I went through, the worse it got.

you go from being a know it all teenager to a scared adult quickly. lol

Hmm.

Write it out in a private journal.

Add some positive words and images.

Picture you being stronger with the fear going away.

Best wishes.

Do you see a therapist?

I can understand how easy it can be to worry. But worry never made anything better. I think you should try to focus on one positive thing each day. Stay focused on that positive thing and know that there is a higher power that is guiding it all. Also, I have the spots in my eyes too. It is loose protein. It is not harmful at all - just annoying because it cannot go away. But it is not a serious condition. Just remember - don't worry, especially about things you cannot control.

Mid, I downloaded one on my phone. so I can keep tabs of how I feel through out the day

Kisses, no I don't anymore. The one I was seeing, was not really helping me. It was the same questions every session. we never progressed.

MFB I know, its just me working myself up for nothing. Last night I took some meds without eating and freaked when I was nauseated. It was AFTER I realized what I did that I calmed down.

Another thing that could help is to put things in perspective. We all have troubles - some worse than others. However, if you think about other people that are suffering in greater ways, it can help you diminish what you feel about yourself. Are you religious at all?

I would think about going to a therapist. Sounds like you need extra help which is nothing to be ashamed of.

MFB, yes I am religious.

Andreanicole, Ive tried therapy. I didn't like the one I was seeing, so I am searching for a new one. I would love to talk to someone and just learn how to re route my thinking

I am not currently sick i dont think but I constantly think I am and have little problems here an there. The advice I can give is to try and take care of yourself the best you can. I try to keep my room a little cleaner so it feels more calm. I try my best to eat well so I don't feel even more sick. Watch YouTube videos or shows or movies that make you feel better and keep you distracted. I also have my mom look things up for me so I don't trigger more anxiety in myself by reading the scary bad stuff. She just takes screenshots of sites that tells me how to fix or relieve whatever problem I am having and it takes a lot of stress out of things. I can definitely say though, do not look the stuff up yourself because usually it shows a lot of worse case scenarios that will make you even more upset. And the last thing I can say is really try to realize the moments when nothing is wrong and you feel Okay. Sometimes it's really hard to remember those times and you always feel like something is wrong. But chances are there will be a time every now and then that you are okay and things are simple and good. It's best to hold onto those times when you are at your worst to remember it doesn't stay like this forever.

Frogsoup, I try not to look things up at all. I have 2 sisters in the medical field and I usually check with them on things. If they cant answer me, one will usually ask the dr she works for. I do try to enjoy the times that I feel good, I feel better more often than not. So that's a plus.

Can I ask what religion you are? My religion gives me a great deal of strength to overcome anxiety and worry.

Mfb, I’m Christian.
