My anxiety has been hking up again and i feel like i cant see straight and my body is really weak like i'm about to fall over. I hate this and want it to go away. Work has been to much lately and that is where my anxiety is coming back. today i worked 12 hours and i found out i didn't get the job i applied for. I feel like i need to sleep it off.

Any else feel this way? is this a faint feeling that i'm feeling?

Working long hours like that is bound to make you anxious and tired. I imagine a good night's sleep without any interruption would help you A LOT. So would some fun, probably. Treat yourself to a little somethin'. :)

I can relate in some ways. When I worked in retail, I always went home physically and mentally exhausted because I was an introvert with an extrovert job. I had to always smile, be talkative, and do all these other social things that I am normally uncomfortable with. So by the end of the day, I'd be a wreck.

I hope you can get yourself some good rest. I also hope for the best with the job world. Don't give up!

My friend told me to take a green tea extract. make sure it is an extract and not just a capsule with powdered green tea. green tea extract has theonine in it which is a natural calming amino acid and I dont need any meds anymore. I buy green tea extract over the counter which has hoodia in it which gives me stamina to go to school and then work and Im fine. but I sure am tired at the end of the day and sleep better than before. I can relate to the feeling that im going to faint but i never did. it only happened in the morning time but hasnt happened for a long time.

I feel that way sometimes. I can even visulatize how much I just want to fall to the floor and not get back up... but I always just keep moving and eventually it gets a little better or it's bedtime and I finally get to stop. I think my body physically hurts sometimes too, but it is on the "inside" not on the outside or a tangible place... does that make sense?

Totally makes sense. Soemtimes i feel pains inside of me and dont know why and then it triggers the anxiety of "whats wrong with me". Never had this before until i started having panic attacks and bad anxiety. My therapist says its because how the muscles tighten up and we dont realize it and then feel the pain.

I would get bad back spasms that would last for days.

Little pains here and there, and weakness ... very familiar with all that! Funny thing is, exercise seems to help me out a lot with that. It centers my mind on one thing, and stretches out and works my muscles. And there's the feeling you're doing something positive for yourself, and you're in control of it, which is a nice change of pace!
