Comments on: How did I recover from anxiety? http://anxietynomore.co.uk/blog/2008/01/15/9/ Anxiety no more Helping sufferers overcome anxiety and panic issues Thu, 17 May 2012 16:05:53 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Jessica http://anxietynomore.co.uk/blog/2008/01/15/9/#comment-20496 Jessica Fri, 16 Mar 2012 22:25:22 +0000 http://anxietynomore.co.uk/blog/?p=9#comment-20496 Hi I am 20 years old and am suffering from bad anxiety and anxiety attacks.. This has occurred since I had glandular fever over 2 years ago and problems within my family haven't helped.. I have been for blood tests over and over again, gone to the emergency doctors over and over, demanding that something is wrong with me.. When I have an attack my throat feels like it is tightening at the bottom and like it is going to stop me breathing, I find it hard to swallow, I feel shakey, I feel dizzy and like I can't breath properly.. I feel like I am a freak and that people around me think I am losing my mind.. It's making me not want to do any thing.. I can even take medication now without worrying that I will have a side effect.. It's really getting me down, I feel as though I am going to push people away from me because I am always asking what's up with me.. I'm always rushing to the doctors and they keep telling me that I have this and every time I don't believe them I don't know why.. I keep telling my self I am ok, that it isn't going to kill me and that I will get over all this in time.. I hope I will, I want to be able to get the career I want and be able to go a day without worrying bout what's going to happen to me.. It has me when I see that it isn't only me suffering because I know my symptoms ain't something serious.. I am taking it a day at a time, I don't want medication from the doctor because I want to do something that isnt going to make me relie on something else.. I have taken some calms from SuperDrig which help me for the past few days and I am reading some book on stress and anxiety and I'm hoping it will help.. All keep well :) Hi I am 20 years old and am suffering from bad anxiety and anxiety attacks..

I went to the Doc a few months ago I just felt really down after an incident at work. I took a week off and felt better but since then on a few occasions I've had this panic feeling better work and at weekends knowing its just around the corner. Another thing is I always get nervous when ever I go out on date to the point I'm physical sick so I've gave up on dating. But the nervous of this has slipped into normal social life, and I don't know what to do?! I think I've got to a point thinking where is my life going?! I know I need to find a new job and I am trying. Reading these comments I've also got the symptom of feeling like memory drifting and emotionless. Does this sound like anxiety? Hi,

I think I’ve got to a point thinking where is my life going?! I know I need to find a new job and I am trying.

Reading these comments I’ve also got the symptom of feeling like memory drifting and emotionless.

Does this sound like anxiety?

My family has recently harassed me to the point I had to file a police report and seek a "no-contact" protective order. The events brought up strong feelings and anxiety. I feel like I've fallen victim to the "it's all coming back/will I ever get over this" syndrome. Given my strong recovery I know I will soon be fine. Any advice for the mean time? Thanks again, Nick Thanks for your blog Paul,

Consequently he suffers with his anxiety attacks and has a lack of motivation to everything. he also dropped out of art college as well. He drives me nuts sometimes. I try to understand him but it is very difficult as he is apathetic, seems lazy with no enthusiasm at all. I appreciate that this is partly due to the underlying conditions but we all have to join life somehow. He is happy around the house as it is his sanctuary but he does not like going out at all or talking to strangers. He wont talk to any one about his problems and had become slightly introverted as a result. He currently just about has a job working in a hotel laundry but I worry he will lose this soon as I have to hastle him daily to get up and get to work. Any ideas to help Tom and therefore me would be gratefully recieved. Linda Kavanagh My son Thomas aged 18 who I love immensely has come off his ritalin and prozac as he said he felt unwell on them.

My anxiety seems to have come from a bulid up of stress, a lot of things happening. Me and the Wife have had Twins, which is hard work and they don't sleep much. 3 years ago I lost my Dad, very suddenly he wasn't old. I keep thinking the worst, it's attaching to things like guilt and fear. It's always my fault. Thoughts of not being cut out for famlily now, makes more feelings of guilt. Is this just anxiety or do the thoughts mean anything? Hi there,
