    These are all anxiety symptoms, they're scary, I know...... Are you taking any vitamins? herbs? I find cbd oil and apple cider vinegar diluted first thing in mornings helps me.

    I feel exactly the same way as you do, I can't find joy in anything these days it's like I'm numb to anything that would normally bring me happiness it's driving me crazy 🤪 and it's making my depression and anxiety really bad lately and I don't see my psychiatrist again until February and I don't have a family doctor 😷 and I can't go to the hospital and speak to the on call psychiatrist because I can't sit there for hours because I have a herniated disc in my lower back and my hip and u can't sit down for too long or I'll do more damage to it and then I'll be in so much pain so I'm pretty much screwed until my next appointment with my psychiatrist in February and ivd tries to get an earlier appointment with her and her secretary told me that she doesn't have any earlier appointments but she put me on a cancelation list but no too many people cancel their appointments with her

    i have been this bad before but it doesnt last forever. anxiety causes so many strange physical symptoms and it is a wonder how they can all really be related to anxiety. try to slow your breath down and breathe in an out of your nose. we should only take about 5-6 breaths a minute. i bet you are breathing between 10-15 breaths a minute. this causes are brains to think it is not getting proper oxygen which automatically sends us into a fight or flight mode. it takes practice ans some time but it would be worth giving it a try.

    hi, you will feel like this for a short amount of time. it's temporary. im not gunna say think positive as that doesnt help, but for me, I had to shut off from the world and look within myself to find peace. that means resting, limiting phone usage and developing oneself and finding your identity in general. overthinking is the typical anxiety symptom and what helps me to stop over thinking is writing these thoughts down, create a mind map of what I call the rational thinking and irrational thinking, I also came up with eradicating problems we face in our everyday life like loneliness, guilt, shame, sadness, and finding ways to challenge them, whether it be accepting you cant change the past or changing an element within yourself. for example, say I started feeling guilty about something I did years ago, I may have said something that hurt someone, I would apologise to that person, or if thats not an option, I help people, it can mean summut really small. small changes like diet and exercise will help alot also. hope this helped. 😃
