How is it better to live day to day in terror and misery? Anxiety disorders unmanaged create more and more anxiety rules until your caged in. Logically it makes no sense if you are in a state of crisis. Sometimes things get out of control and it is needed, even if its short term just to regroup.
To do it without meds requires intense commitment and dedication to therapy, some form of skill class cbt..etc..a ton of knowledge on what an anxiety disorder is and how it works, mindfullness, maybe yoga..etc..and even doing everyone of things there are setbacks. So this route is possible but a very concious effort is required. And to learn or absorb any of it you have to be a semi calm mindset.

Anxiety has so many different symptoms and from reading your post you are experiencing some that are definitely pretty intense and I have been where you are at so you are not alone. I went to the ER one day because I was convinced that I had a brain tumor or some other major health issue, no way Anxiety was causing this but I was 100% wrong! I had a CT SCAN and all this blood work done and I was healthy as can be, and yes the Anxiety was the problem. The Doctor told me to do the right thing and see a psychiatrist which I did, I talked to him about what was going on it we worked on getting some Meds to help keep the Anxiety under control and also to get something for sleep, lack of sleep only feeds Anxiety so this is important to talk about. With his help I was able to get the Anxiety under control and I feel so much better and I guarantee you will to. It takes some time and some Meds don't work or take time to work so be patient and don't feel scared to go this route, it's the best thing to do. Good luck

Hi Natalie,
Can u work out what the original trigger was for your anxiety?
Have you sought or has doctor prescribed anti anxiety meds cos this would help to calm you down in the first instance.
I was prescribed anti deps when I had the same racing negative thoughts. It calmed me.
Your negative thoughts are ruling you and yes your going round in circles.
In counselling are you addressing the issues behind this?
Counselling doesn't always work straight away, can depend on counsellor, how anxious u are, but it is a start. Don't give it up.
I've had counselling over any years with lots of different people. But you do need to have in mind and remind urself what is trigger, was the original trigger.
Msge me whenever. I'm here to help if you need support.
Phil
