    Hey man, I've been there. It sucks. What makes your happy? What makes you feel less anxious?
    • Posted

      I like music and just relaxing and i try to stay focused and positive but im always worried about my condition
    • Posted

      I get it. What I think you should do is focus on the things you love and keep trying to do them as much as possible. Try to remember the times when you were happy and how good that felt, and keep trying to reach that feeling again.

      Do you ever have moments where your not anxious, or "moments of clarity"?

    • Posted

      Yes that's very good advice and yes when im at my parents house i feel okay thanks for the reply

      When you have these moments of clairty, focus on them and really appreciate them and remind yourself that you can be that happy. Set that as your bar. 

      No problem. If you need any help, message me on here or feel free to send me a PM.

      Hey

      I get the same symptoms as you do but take deep breaths makes me more lightheaded does it happens too you and the blurry vision is like foggy right ?

    • Edited

      It does feel weird and its really scary. Everyday is a struggle. I just hope they would come up with a real cure no drugs just a real cure. It does get annoying not feeling like yourself like your always space out. I just hope for a better future

    • Edited

      Hi mate, I've been feeling like that for so long I've went to E.R I broke down into tears to the psychiatric nurse she came in with a note pad and asked me loads of questions, I told her I feel detatched from reality and myself I get horrible scary thoughts and feel like im on the verge of sanity. But she was 100 percent sure it's just anxiety I've been seen my doctors been rushed to E.R in ambulance several times had all the tests done, they all came back fine. They all say anxiety so I'm just waiting for a psychotherapist now. Ino what you mean when you say it's hard to believe that anxiety could cause us to feel so strange mentally and physically but I'm finally starting to believe the professionals after hearing so many similar stories.

    • Posted

      Sometimes when I get derealisation just looking at the clouds would cause me to question our existance ino it sounds crazy and that's why I thought I wqs going crazy these thoughts and detached feeling were giving me intense fear often ending in a panic attack. Bizarre. Litterally thought I wqs going skitzophrenic buy the doc's said we wouldn't question our sanity if that wqs the case you actually believe it rather than question it.
