    Hi. 

    I’m very grateful to have found your forum, as no one has ever described what I went through as perfect as you did. 

    I have anxiety, but it was more severe a few years ago, lasted for about 3 months. Throughout these months, I had very weird vibes through my head that literally felt like someone had just banged it, making me feel in a dizzy spiral and into a panic attack. They came on randomly and suddenly, I even went to hospital I was so scared. I was never sure and still are not sure what I did to overcome this, but counselling helped me a lot. It also calmed down when I moved house (not saying you should move house) but it made me think it might of been a fear I was holding onto, maybe like fear of change, then when you realise that you don’t need to be scared, and that everything is going to be ok - you’ll get their. Just remember that.

      When trying to sleep i feel tingling all over like its escaping my body, i havnt slept for 4 days and i have 0 concentration. As i am exhausted none of my thoughts are msking sence im clinging on to s fear thay a thought made me feel which i cant explain causing the anxiety to increase. My dad had a stroke 14 weeks ago snd this when my anxiety came back with avengents, the worse i have ever felt. I have started counciling but 50 minutes a week just isnt enough i feel like im loosing my mind snd loosing control. I cant rationalise what im scared of and why im scared anymore
