I am literally going crazy. I cannot take it any more. From anxiety to panic attacks, insomnia, back pain and stiffness, eye pain to bloat, heavy stomach, constipation to the point where i feel if i push any harder my head is going to pop off, burning stomach, dizzy and headaches. Crawlies in my stomach and chest feeling like worms or something. These past 4 days have been a living nightmare. Ladies what do you do for bloat ? My stomach needs some relief. Please help i am in pain

    omg this is me right now. I got 3 hours of sleep last night and I feel like I'm having the worst menstrual cramps.I just finished my period and normally feel great around this time. I've had regular bowels so i don't think it's constipation. Hopefully it'll go away soon.

    I had burning stomach in the beginning. believe it was gastritis. came with all these other crazy symptoms. I.ve had burning in other places as well tho so who knows. I had to cut out all acidic stuff like tomatoes. lemon ginger tea, probiotics and activated charcoal all helped. make sure you are drinking lots and lots of water! helps with constipation.

      Lkl2019 Thank you for your reply. I drank ginger tea yesterday after a friend of mine said to drink it because she thought it would help then hell happened on top of hell. I will cut out everything acidic and just stick to drinking water. These symptoms are crazy and i am so grateful for you ladies. This forum literally saved me from going insane. Thanks again.

    Hi hun

    All i can say is im with you.

    I am nearly three years post menopause and the constant anxiety panic attacks and buzzing tremor crawly feeling constantly all over my body is almost too much to bear now.

    I woke up last night hyperventilating with a panic attack but the anxiety and feeling like i cant breath never leaves me.As for sleeping as soon as i drop off im woken with a fright. This is a never ending nightmare.

    The bloat is just awful.

    I dont even want to get out of bed this morning the heavy chest anxiety and buzzing are in full force and its only 7.45 here in England. God help me today is all i can say. Praying for you x

      michelle97919 Thanks for your reply. The crawly feeling intensified for me this year. It is driving me nuts and giving me anxiety thinking that i have pesticide growing inside of me. My mind is going crazy. I know exactly what you mean when it comes to the panic attacks , the breathing, feeling like a complete mess. Last night i only got about 2 hrs of sleep. I woke up this morning shaking , unstable. I will take it easy today. I am praying for you that God too strengthens you and makes you well. Hang in there. hugs

    Everything you've said is all of us at one point or another. As for the constipation I've discovered Colpermint, it works slowly over 24 hrs and has been a godsend.
