How the Hell is it SO hard to feel normal?

Posted , 12 users are following.

So. Please tell me how its impossible to feel like a normal person when you have anxiety. HOW is it possible to not think you're dying when anxiety and a heart attack LITERALLY have the SAME symptoms but you're just suopposed to shrug it off or rush to the hospital? Hm? I see thousands of people, friends, family with perfect lives. Never once seen them talk or act in ANY type of way that I do. Never seen them run away and hide because some disgusting fake pain or feeling is happening inside their body or brain. They just get to live great lives while I sit here everyday in a living hell.

What a joke. Sure, dose me up with the highest mg Anti-Psycho pills you got for me doc. I'll make sure to take them the rest of my life. I'll make sure to rely on a man made drug to feel like everyone else even though my arrogant body should already be that way. Welp, I'm laying in bed at 5:23 am typing this out as my chest has severe pressure, I'm dizzy, cold sweats and my body shaking. Dont worry, I wont go to the hospital, waste my time and rack up another countless bill. I just get to suffer instead.

Whatever.

    I feel this deeply. Exact same thoughts rushing through my head at all times. The frustrating part is remembering back to when I was somewhat functional and wondering what on earth happened to that person. I read all these things about the pills and I just cant take them knowing they are such a toss up. But here I am panicking and unable to drive without someone with me and crying daily. Even with all of my plans. The exercise helps but doesnt cure, the supplements help but dont cure. The therapist Im not even sure helps let alone cures. I know it wont help to tell you are mot alone, but sometimes it helps me to read stories or watch videos of those that are recovered and hope that can be me someday. I hope you find something that helps..
