Last five weeks my anxiety has peaked.

Just carrying this sickness in my belly and sting in my eyes everyday.

So sick with anxiousness.

It's starting to effect my ability to function.

Actually threw up this morning because of the sick feeling.

Please, I need advise.

Hi Tanhal

Sorry to read that you're suffering so much with anxiety. Has anything happened over the five weeks that has triggered the anxiety? Have you been to see a GP regarding this. There are meds you can take to help with the symptoms.

I too suffer anxiety and at times had to pull over on freeway and calm down. It is a scary thing to go through. Have you tried sitting down and taking some slow deep breaths, or look around and see things or hear things. Doing this keeps you grounded and mindful of where you are. Even putting on some relaxation music and deep breathing helps as well.

I hope you get back to us and let us know how you're going

Take care

Jo

Hi Jo,

Thanks for responding to my post.

Nothing has really happened in the last 5 weeks......besides stress. Pretty sure it's stress related.

It's not really like a 'panic attack' it's just constant nauseousness and anxiety.

I've got an appointment with a GP on Monday. Drugs scare me but, I worry about side effects and what happens when I come off them. Cant keep living like this. It's so terrible Jo. I'm totally trapped. If it's not screaming negative talk in my head, then it's such bad anxiety I throw up.

What do you think is going on??

Hey Tanhal

Has anything happened to you in the past eg, abuse, assault, stressful event etc?

It's good that you are seeing your GP on monday. He/she will prob give you something to not feel so anxious and nauseous. No you can't keep living like this; it's not good for you or your mind and body.

I hope you can talk to me, i am here for you. take care

dear Tanhal, when you see your doctor ask them about taking some stomach acid tablets, they are only small, but these may settle your tummy down. Geoff.
