is the way I'm feeling normal?
Posted , 7 users are following.
I'm 17 years of age, for over two years I have been suffering with anxiety attacks. These attacks come and go, I've been in and out of the doctors over 5 times and ive just been put on anti-depressants and beta blockers. I feel like the way I feel ISNT normal- it's hard to explain but I'm going to try- I feel numb, as if my body isn't mine, I feel like I have no control over what I am doing. Due to the numbness I turn to scratching myself or pinching myself to show myself that I am in control. I feel like I'm going to die if im honest and its stopping everything, I can't go out, I am petrified of being in an open space or even being outside, I struggle so much, I can't go out and I hate being in the car, it's literally ruining my life. Is this normal, I'm so desperate for help.

a good mindfulness hypnotherapist will encourage meditation and calming techniques. I suffered from what you are saying for years and finally conquered social anxiety and panic attacks.
It it does take work, research, reading appropriate books and practise but you are worth it.
I know of a great guy in southampton but I have no idea where you are based,
you are not alone by any means, everyone suffers anxiety to some level but for some reason- due to past learning experiences or bad experiences from before some suffer more than others.
As as mentioned above,,keep posting and vent how you feel. I expect someone here can answer or relate
