So last night I ate some cereal ( honey bunches of its with lactaid fat free milk ) amd about a half hour later my head stared killing me and having this tightening and tingling sensation and I also felt super nauseous and had started trembling like crazy I thought I was going to die , has anyone ever felt like this or had this happen ?

    sorry i am probably repeating myself but you really just need to try and take your minds of it a bit as somtimes, i have known people who have anxiety as well as myself and i know it is a constant fear and i am not minimising that in any way but you see, if we have a big worry and get like this we are then going to get more worried and paniced and maybee even depressed as its human nature to do so

    but if we do its just a vicious circle

    and it wil get worse and worse

    so we just need to stop for a seconed and think what i am actual doing, i am wearing myself down

    so set yourselves out wit a little plan try eat a good balanced diet

    do somthing like a hobby to take your minds of your problems and enjoy life not fight it

    as one of my mottos goes

    ITS LIVE/LAUGH/LOVE  NOT DEATH/DARKNESS/DOOM

      You are right Ian , that makes a lot of sense to try and stop worrying as much and maybe it will start to go away, because I'm not feeding it .

    yep i know it sounds funny but when you get really busy on somthing it will probably go all out of your mind and just build yourself on up from there and remember

    DONT LET ANYONE DRAG YOU DOWN

    it is the worst thing for anyone with anxiety or deppression .

    you can be back where you started before you know it,

    if you need to just close your eyes and block things out, DO IT

    from my experience what can have taken me months to build up can be knocked down in minutes,

    tension, stress, worry, greif and anger are the causes of depression and anxiety.

    and then we get more worried and stressed which causes more anxiety or deppression and so on, but we just need to channel that all aside do somthing we enjoy, and enjoy what we can enjoy, as we can either be cross about having anxiety, or happy were not parylised

    so just one thing i will leave with you,

    do what you can, through what your given, with what you have

    and you will get to your targets in the end.

    i think i have given you most of my tips,

    but i will keep an eye on this thead and post anything i think may help

    KEEP GOING STRONG AND YOU WILL GET THERE IN THE END

    no its the medical thing is getting me down quite a lot as i said i have complex partial epilepsy, autism, dyslexia, dyspraxia, ataxia, depression, anxiety, now have been diagnosed with hiatus hernia, stripped tummy lining and celiac

    it is so hard to keep your chin up

    my mum and elder brother are so abusive as well it really grinds you down you have to try to block it out but sometimes i think it cuts through any block you put up

    people can be so cruel, heartless ,hateful, bitter cry

    you know i was on about taking steps you’ll find you’ll take steps in this direction you’ll take steps in that direction and you’ll kind of get lost along the way and people will cause you problems and abuse you and your steps will take you nearer to the edge saying I’m not good enough I’m not good enough and all you need is one more step for the fall and when you fall down you get back up everybody knows that but I tell you there are some times in life you feel you don’t have the strength to get back up

    but no sorry im probably just dragging you down i'll stop there

    sorrysad

    i think its cus i cant focus on my bussiness or do even my restoratios at the minute i am laid up with the pain

    sorry i'm going on again

    sad

      IAN please talk to me , I enjoy talking with you on here , you can private message me of you want and we can talk all night if need be , sometimes we need to talk to someone who kind of can understand what we are going through , because people who don't understand are so quick to judge because they have not experienced the things that we have , so I get it ! Your not nothing me or rambling at all , so don't think that . That's what these forums are for , they are here for us so that we can vent, and reach out and talk to others that do understand these struggles we endure !!

    i just dont know what to do at the minute it just seems so unfair

    jobs pretty much gone although they said they would have to get two peope to take my place

    they tried two so i heard 1 lasted 1 week the other lasted 3 days so maybee they will rethink

    cant eat gluten or dairy now

    stomach lining is stripped can take up to 5 years to fully heal so im told and this is what has made me lose my bussines possibly my job and be in agony

    and they are always stuggleing on drugs to get ones that are effective without two many side effects to sort everything

    lost 6 stone without trying to and is now also causing concern as within two years i have gon from obese to unhealthily underweight

    its a pain

    sorry for rambleing on

      Its okay , I don't know if your religious or not , but prayer always works !! Things can and will get better though the power of prayer !!! 🙏🙏🙏 I feel like I'm not really living my life right now , I feel sad and kind of depressed, I cry almost everyday because I have to deal with this anxiety , but what I had to realize is that there are people in this world that have to deal with a lot more than just anxiety and they are very much stronger than me, and I started to think I was being selfish by asking God to heal me and make me back to myself again , when people out here have real illness and diseases they battle with , so in stopped asking God to heal me because I felt like I was taking from the people who really need him the most , not saying I don't need him ,but I have to be strong and get through this , this anxiety is a nightmare to me and I feel really bad a lot , I feel trembling and shaking in my body and have really weird head pains and tension headaches, among other sensations and symptoms of anxiety, I've been thoroughly checked out by a neurologist , I had MRIs of my brain , head, and neck , I've had blood work done over 7 times ,and I've seen a endocrinologist for my thyroids and hormones, and everything test came back great , so I need to be humble and thank god for what I do have and not cry because in have to deal with anxiety , its just a tuff thing to deal with and it gets pretty scary because of the symptoms and sensations it has and that goes on in my body !!!!

      Sorry for rambling 😩😩

    yes thanks i fully agree

    i think he gives us dicepline such as medical problems to test our faith

    i find i far to often blame him witch is wrong

    and he wants us to be happy

    i just feel very small in what youve said

    as i so often think about my own problems and not so much others

    i think the main problem with me is its taken me years and years and i am still working at it to be like everyone else and be able to do what everyone else does

    but like i was saying a bit back on this chat it can take minutes to destroy what has been built up over months or years in my case for instance my job, having more medical problems and i surpose when ill its worse but also as you can imagine being called those kind of names and having those kind of comments when you have worked so hard to overcome mental disabilities is quite cuttingsad

    sorry i shouldent be so dismal

    its not the fact that i have disabilities that hurts it just feels like you take one step forward and two steps back
