Can't sleep due to anxiety. Such a bummer! What are your guys most common anxiety symptoms? I'd love to hear everyone's experiences and see if it is similar. I usually get heart palpitations, lump in my throat, often I feel it's hard to breathe and my chest will hurt. I don't even be able to talk because I feel it's taking all my air and I'm short of breath!

    Heyy, all those things seem pretty common with anxiety as scary as they might be! i get those too! 

    last night for the first time ever though i felt very very sick, i actually wanted to vomit as i thought that would make me feel better, it always freaks me out when i get a new symptom i also struggle at night thinking my arms and mainly legs have gone numb and heavy, i get blurred vision ALL the time too, it drives me mad

    do you get any of these things too?

      Oh yes, definitely! Especially the blurred vision. That one drives me bonkers! I always feel extremely nauseous during an attack. I hate it, it makes me even more anxious than before!

    My problem is I seem to concentrate just on one symptom and all other problems seem to be caused by the first problem I always think I'm really ill the doctors  just haven't found it yet  and I spend my day everyday thinking that I won't see my kids grow up      You guys are the only people I tell this too because you guys are the only people that understand.  Hope you get what you need from all of us

    Hello! I use to suffer from extreme vertigo and dizziness when I went to bed. I would also jerk myself awake cos I thought I was dying. It will all pass. Look inside, find your peace. Write down how you feel and how you would like things to change and then believe in those changes.
