Anxiety Support Group
Anxiety is a physical condition marked by intense and persistent feelings of distress, fear, angst or dread. General anxiety caused by routine day-to-day stresses usually passes quickly and is experienced by almost everyone at one time or another. However, such feelings that linger over time and are very difficult to cope with, and which lack a clear cause, may indicate...
well I had my first panic attack in a long time earlier tonight. And it was as horrible as I remember.
I didn’t cry tho. I thought I was dying. And I kept pacing and this rush just came over my body. Hot and then really cold. Feelings of impending doom. Derealization. In the back of my mind I knew what this was. This feeling was all too familiar. But it didn’t stop me from freaking out.
I tried to go and hug my boyfriend who was playing some computer game. But he didn’t seem to help. So my go to solution is call my mom until she answers. And I needed something to pull me back to reality.
It was just the scariest feeling! The impending doom, but I kno I’ve felt this before and it’s not a good feeling.
I guess right now I’m just trying to recover from the stress my body went through and I’m confused as to why this happened. And I don’t want it to happen again :(
i had a bad headache so I took 2 excedrin and then I fell asleep in the living room. I woke up maybe an hour to an hour and a half later. I was all clammy like I was sweating in my sleep. I got up and went into the kitchen and took my Prozac, poured a cup of iced tea, and grabbed a few cookies. I even went to the bathroom. Then I came in and layed in bed. It was like as soon as I layed in bed - I felt the panic and impending doom.
I guess I’m just a little shaken up.
Thanks for anyone who read this.

Jay's podcasts are really good. I watch them on YouTube for free. Today, I watched his video about motivation. In fact, I've been watching a few videos on this subject. Jay gave us an assignment to complete the following sentence: I am stuck because? I don't describe myself as stuck, but to finish the sentence, I would say that I am stuck because I am tired. When I have energy, I do...

Does anyone here have a comfort item you carry with you when you go out? For example this is my doll, Annie, and I've recently been bringing her with me when I run errrands flor have an appointment. Holding her comforts me. I've bought her clothes, crocheted for her, I recently bought a personalized blanket with her name on it. Just wondering if anyone else has a comfort item.

So. . . How you doing this morning? Any calmer? Did making this post help any?
I feel like I’m in derealization because of anxiety. I hate this feeling. :(
