On Friday and today I've gotten some really different kind of anxiety symptoms I just wondered if anyone else feels these too ? They are kinda hard to explain so sorry if I waffle on a bit ... I feel like all of a sudden that there is too much going on in my brain .. like it's just going to explode at any minute .. everything slows down around me .. feel fuzzy .. cant focus .. get like a weird sensation in my head .. Then of course panic sets in and probably makes it feel 10 times worse .. I feel drained with it all im totally exhausted  ... I feel like there really actually is something wrong with me cos this surely cannot be anxiety ??

    I get something similar. I have bad health anxiety and sometimes I get this overwhelming rush over my body which is so hard to explain, it's like fear but not? It's kind of like what you're saying. I think our body just does odd stuff when we're constantly worried. I keep feeling like what I have is more than anxiety too but I'm fed up of going to the doctors just to be told nothing.

    hi Christine as you are no doubt aware anxiety manifests itself in a wide variety of ways- are you taking any medication at the moment or perhaps have changed medication? Certainly if you are constantly concentratinng on these symptoms it can make them feel worse - perhaps when you feel like  this you could take a moment and try and concentrate on your breathing in an effort to relax your mind- certainly the more you try and analyise what is happening it will leave you feeling exausted.any sort of anxiety can leave you feeling tired and drained from trying to cope with it.

    Yes I too get these strange feelings in my head.  I expect youhave read how many different symptoms people get with anxiety.  Achesd and pains everywhere.  Pounding hearts, awful fuzzy headachy feelings.  My brain won't stop, and I can't sleep because of it.  Yes anxiety is a horror!!

    yep! same here. Sometimes, even i am not doing anything or just simply sitting (trying to get relax) i feel like someone/something forcefully entering my brain and corrupt it once inside. oh well, that's anxiety to you.

    Thats how mine started. my mind was racing 100miles an hour. thinking constantly. it's all about your breathing with anxiety. look up breathing excercises online. yoga did me wonders too. smile
