Feeling weird

I have been having a very weird feeling in my head only this past week.  Feel unstable when I walk at times. Went to Doc normal EKG, ?bloodwork, pulse. Next they are doing a stress test.  Don't know what's going on??  Feel like I can't walk stable

I just feel like the fragility of being a human is so overwhelmong and i see other humans and just existing kind of scares me it is so wierd. And then i just feel really wierd and i dont know why so i try to find a reason for it

Hey,

I think I suffer from this too. I used to have it on and off but lately I'm getting it quite a lot.

The best way I can describe the feeling is like being told you've been cheated on or your boyfriend splitting up with you. Or like when you suspect your partner is doing something wrong like cheating. You know like that sick sort of feeling you get? Where your stomach tightens and you start feeling lightheaded and funny in a horrible way.

I don't know if you have ever experienced this but this is what the feeling feels like, except it's for no apparent reason.

Please let me know if this sounds similar/familiar to yours! I am interested to know whether what I have is really a condition of some sort.

Thanks!

OMG yes.  I have never had anxiety but recently had health issues and all I can say is I dont' feel myself.  Very weird but I am like out of sorts, like floating on air and not connected.  

Omg , I thought I was the only one . I could cry right now reasing all these comments. I keep thinking there's something wrong with my brain , but I'm terrified to get it checked out .

Let me jniw how your doibg snd if this went swsy st all

Yea I do everyday it's heart breaking

Yes. I feel weird all the time. It started about three months ago. I woke up one morning and everything looked weird, almost dreamlike. I was also very shaky and has headaches as well as trouble concentrating and complete loss of appetite. I felt like I was sliping away and losing my mind. I never thought a mental illness could affect you in such way. Therefore I was convinced I has some deadly condition such as a brain tumor. I didn't have insurance and was so scared that I went to the emergency room three times anyway! They kept saying I had a ainus infectuon and I trusted them thinking ok it will go away soon but it didnt. I applies to be rated through the hospital and received financial assistance and immediately made a doctors appt with an actual pcp. This was after 2 months of hell. I told him how I was feeling and even convinced him I may have a brain tumor. He sent me a ct scan and an mri as well as numerous blood tests and urine samples. Everything came back normal, yet I was falling apart. After the tests he had me come in and I just broke down I cried I told him how scared I am that this is never gonna go away I can barely get out of bed but have to force myself to go to work, I lost 12 pounds. At this point he prescribed zoloft and ativan. I started them immediately. The ativan did nothing to calm me down so called the doc and he prescribed valium. This took the edge off slightly but I was still a wreck. But something happened slowly over the next week or so and everyday I had a few hours without complete misery. Over the next week taking the zoloft daily I started to slowly feel like life was real again. I have been on the zoloft and valium for 5 weeks now and I feel like I still have a ways to go before I will feel normal again if ever. But life is manageable now I'm not breaking down in teats everyday. I'm not going to bed right after work and sleeping the whole day because I can't stand how I feel when I'm awake. I'm getring Out of the house more and more, slowly but surely. This is the strangest thing I have ever experienced and has and is giving me a whole new attitude toward mental illnesses. It's really uncontrollable. I hate being on meds and even feel guilty about it sometimes but I need relief. Anxiety is horrible and I never imagined it could make you physically sick. Talk to a doctor, reach out for help because I honestly didn't want to live like that anymore it was unbearable. But I have hopes now that I will regain myself. Goof luck and take it one day at a time.

Yes Shanie. I feel like that Alot. Uncomfortable in my own mind. It's amazing all the breakthroughs made in science like the mapping of the human genome and yet cures for our. Mental illness is still without any real progress. I think medical science is holding back! 

[Light trigger warning?]

I do understand.  I came looking for an article about this tonight because I'd had such an experience around 45 minutes ago.

We have a new puppy so she has to be let outside often (despite the weather) and as I was getting dressed I felt uneasy, but brushed it off as getting the jitters from the semi-darkness (the lights were partially on, a few of them were off).

I remember picking her up and swiftly taking her outside. There was a loud noise like a freeway humming really loudly right next to our street (we live in a city area by a highway so it is not unusual for me to hear such a thing) but this sounded so much more different and kind of put my nerves on alert.

Then when she had finished relieving herself, she stood in the middle of the yard looking at nothing, just slightly upward.

Mind you, this is Ohio mid-winter. It's freezing and a puppy like her is normally quick to be inside. I look up and the sky is weirdly dark. We have tons of streetlights where we are so I normally see the reflection of the lights on the clouds, but looking on the horizon, it's just *black.* It's dark and as soon as I see it the wind picks up heavily.

My heart is beating harder now, I'm really concerned but not to the point of an anxiety or panic attack. The gate lock starts rattling and creaking.

I call my dog's name and she doesn't respond. I call again and finally she looks at me so I hustle up the back porch and into the house but I can't shake this scary feeling, like something is wrong.

My mom works a partly-dangerous job so immediately I fill her in and ask if everything's okay.

The folk in my house are asleep so I'm downstairs nearly freaking out because this uneasy, uncomfortable, detached sensation is coming in waves.

Yeah, it's 99.9% likely it's just anxiety. You should be okay and I know it's terrifying. It's an awful experience and so.. surreal, almost. You may feel incapable of existing or maybe the opposite. I know that when I have these "episodes," so to speak, I feel as if the world slows down a little bit and I'm just stuck waiting for something to happen. It's an odd feeling and I always tell people that I feel "off" when I experience it.

It is very distressing and can be traumatizing, so if you don't know how this feels, please be patient and kind with people that do. They're likely scared, terrified out of their minds, light-headed, panicky, paranoid. I think the best thing you can receive is reassurance and a firm hold to help ground you.

It differs from person to person, but please be gentle.

To those experiencing this... I know it's weird and can be scary. You'll be okay, I promise. ?? I know it doesn't feel like it now, just try to be strong.
