Although I am new here, I am not new to anxiety, I hope that by joining in here, I can both learn and offer my experiences. Right now, I am in a bad place with my anxiety and I am having trouble dealing with it. I just want to stay in bed under the covers and not leave the house. But, I have to get up and go to work, and that is the hardest. I'm sitting there, dealing with the public and my boss sits right beside me, my arms, face, legs are tingling, i feel like I'm going to pass out, or die, so I try to deep breath, but although it does eventually pass, it just keeps happening, and it's gone on longer this time than ever before. There was a trigger that started if off this time, but i just can't get control this time. What once was maybe once a week, is slowly becoming multiple times a day, and I just hate it, that out of control feeling, the doom, it makes me feel stupid. I can't tell anyone i work with what is happening to me, the environment is quite small and confined as far as work space goes. I'm hoping it passes soon, and I'm hoping that venting here will help me to at least put down in words what i can't say out aloud. I have visited many psychologists over the years, and the one thing I have learned is, it never goes away, it subsides. I don't think there is a cure for anxiety, and if there is, I'd love to hear about it.
