I am suffering debilitating anxiety for the first time

Posted , 4 users are following.

Hi, I'm 39 and for the past couple of weeks I had been struggling with a bad back. Over the last few days I have been feeling very worried and had a couple of panic attacks. I am very tired and I feel like a haze is over me constantly, it's like it's not really me. My body is very sore and I can't really get anything done, I haven't been to work the last couple of days. This morning I vomited from stress and my appetite has gone. A week ago I was up and about, full of energy. I feel like there is something really wrong with me and then fixate on it. I went to the doctors and they said to come back next week. Does this sound like anxiety to people? I have had a stressful few months with some major traumas. Thanks

    yes that can happen reguarlly liam you will have good moments and bad moments and I say that because you may get up in the morning feeling ok then one two of a few hours after it just comes from noway but the good moments will last into hours and you will get good days/I now when i have a "bad moment" look at it and turn it in to a good one so negative thoughts become less eventually
