i need help i need to know im going to be ok :(

beatable first your not going to die. It's important to get that out of your head.I have been/am in the same situation but am learning to deal with it. Second talk to your GPS most gpsuccessful do listen.Normally if you are put on a drug it's because they feel you need it you should never stop taking them without first speaking to your gp.side effects can be helped but only if you tell your gp.

It has taken me a long time to realise this.

Is there any other person you trust that you can talk to? If so try talking and perhaps taking them with you to the gp that way if you feel uneasy telling the gp what's happening they can do it for you! I am not saying it's going to be easy but it does get a bit easier.

I just want you to know to have faith. Things will get better you need to give it time. I know its hard sometimes but what i have learned is that you need to be patient the natural reaction is that you want it to go away as soon as possible but its not like that. I realized and excepted that my panic attacks and anxiety will not go away the next day i hope some day they will but for now i excepted the feelings that i get when i go through them. I get what you get too but for me is when im in the car to any destination, i get the heavy feeling, palpations, pressure, on my left chest, weakness my whole body, when i do things and some not all the little things i do cause my heart to race a little when i barely do much feels like i went sprinting when i havent. You are not alone i go through it every single day im not going to say it does not bother but it does im learning as i go through this journey but things happen for a reason and just because theres people out there say that anxiety is for life is not true we are all different. Have Faith!

Hello Beata8413, 

Trust me, you are not alone. It is an itereseting fact that most mental illnesses delevope to its "full potential" when we reach early adulthood, such as 19 to early 20's. I always had a bit of anxiety and irrational fears growin up! Even as a little girl. At the time I was able to ignore the thoughts and fears, and never thought I had a mental illness... Until my 19th birthday. That day was so hard for me. I felt something bubbling up in my gut and it was just this awful sense of fear and I wanted to just RUN. Run away from something, but I did not know what. A few weeks later I fell into the full spiral of anxiety and I lost almost 25 lbs in about a month. I was unable to eat, keep any food dow that I did eat, because every single morning, like clockwork, I would throw up from the knot I carried in my stomach all day to the night. I did not want to leave my house eiter, but my mother forces me. I did take medication in the past, but I thought I was strong enough without it...so I got off. What happens, is, your brains chemicals are not balanced. There is a ripple in th chemical flow in your brain (and everyones who has any mntal illness, the severitis are just sometimes different) So, when your doctor gave you those medications, it started to even out that chemical in your brain that was telling your body to freak out and have irrational thoughts... So you started to feel "normal". When you got off, it took a bit for your brain to adjust to now being off the medication again, so your brain had to get back to its "normalcy", which is "panic/freak out" mode. Now, I have tried a few medications before. Some gave me awful side effects as well & almost all are awful to get off of, but, If you talk to your doctor, I am SURE there is something that can help you. Also, there are NATURAL pills/tables that you can take such as St. John's Wort. The say not to mix these with other drugs though for anxity, so please research and talk to people who know about this drug to see if it is right for you. It is not really a drug, it is more like a supplement, sort of like a vitamin. I had my chiropractor perscribe this to me. I did not take it though, because I am on Zoloft and have been for a few years now. I am now 24. I still battle anxiety. It become a lifestyle. You have to lear each day to fight it! I read a lot about this illness, I talked to many doctors/therapists and even a psychiatrist. I have watched a lot of videos on anxiety, depression, ocd & panic disorder. And I have some self help DVDs. You can find many self help videos on youtube.. Also, take up meditation and yoga. it souds silly, I thought so before too, but it will help you. I also enjoy giving my self positive affirmations in mantra form when things get hard. Our minds are constantly telling us how awful things are and all the bad that is going to happen, so counter attack it with all the positive things i your life! When anxety says, "What if this happens?" Ask if back, "So? What if it does?" And then plan out a way you can handle that current situation that leaves you feeling worried and scared. Mantras are the best! Repeat things to yourself daily, as axiety comes close... "I am strong. I can do this. Anxiety will not win. I am strong. I can do this. Anxiety will not win!!" Over and over until you feel better. Write. Stories, journal enteries, poetry... Just write. It is KEY for the anxious mind to stay OCCUPIED and distracted fro its own self. Do the things that scare you. It scares you to walk outside? Do it! Take baby steps. One day step out the front door, the next, dow the driveway, the next onto the side walk, the next down the block...so on and so forth. Anxiety is just trying to protect you. It is not an intelligent helper sometimes, sometimes it makes you fear silly things, but it thinks it is helping to keep you safe, So show your brain there is no fear! I learned that if you begin DEEP breathing right when you feel a panic attak about to come, it'll stop it in its tracks! True fact. You can not have a panic attack when you are taking deep, full breaths. Panic attacks come when your breathing gets contricted from fear. So, when you feel it about to come, take a deep and slow breath in, hold it for another 4 seconds & then release for 4. Repeat this a few times until you feel better! I hope this helped you. Stay strong. You are not alone. I suffer daily. Feel better! 

You are going to be OK. It's the worst feeling I know all about it but you are going to be fine. Your brain and feelings are just over energised and it will take a while to get it back to normal.

Have you tried "no panic"- look them up on the on Internet. Call them anytime between 10am to 10pm. Have a chat they have really helped me.

Good luck and just keep going you will get there in the end .
