I feel so helpless.

Posted , 7 users are following.

My anxiety has never been then bad, and I'm not even sure what is causing it. It's starting to make me feel so detached from myself. From the world. I'm continuously in my head. My mind feel so mixed up. I can't enjoy anything in life right now. I feel lost. I want this anxiety to get better, at times I'll be okay for a few days and then it all comes falling back down

      I have had that, yes. I don't have it often but it is very terrible and makes you feel like you're going insane. For me it almost feels like I'm watching myself through a movie and I'm not actually in my body. For me to get rid of it, I have to constantly talk myself through it and I have to constantly be keeping myself busy. After awhile I'll notice hey look at that, when I'm busy and not thinking about it I feel just normal and I'll slowly stop getting anxiety and feeling that way. It takes a lot of hard work to train your brain like that though. But there is ALWAYS light at the end of the tunnel

    I understand how you feel, I am the same way! I strongly suggest you go talk to a therapist about your issues since you seem to be in a bad state of mind. Getting medication to help with your issues isn't a bad idea either. It can get better as long as you reach out for help. If you are able to, try explaining how you feel to a loved one. I hope you are able to feel better soon.

      Thank you, I am going to start seeing my therapist again since I had stop seeing her for awhile due to my hectic schedule. Talking about how I feel really does help a lot, and that's why I'm glad I have such a wonderful bf who talks me through all my anxiety attacks
