Overwhelmed with anxiety! Feeling tired and weak trying to fight it all the time.

[tntomo]

Hello, my introduction... I’am a GAD anxiety sufferer. I have been feeling so overwhelmed lately and I don’t know what to do? Everything gets to me, I’m so tired trying to fight this illness all the time. I have so many fears and thoughts that it scares me. I don’t sleep well these days. I went through a traumatic event 10 years ago which my GP believes that is where my anxiety started from. I’ve come to beyond blue for help and guidance.

Hi Mary & Dools,

thank so much for your positivity and uplifting words. Coming into this forum was one of the best decisions I made. It has made me realise that I’am not alone with this awful illness and that I have a chance to help others like minded.

I currently have a slight bit of anxiety atm, and as usual it’s come out of the blue. So I’m trying some strategies that we’re recommended to me, it’s hard I tell you. My what ifs are high and I feel that gut wrench feeling like something terrible is wrong with me. So I’m looking to the positives, my husband will be home from work soon and he always grounds me. And I’am thankful to have my two beautiful daughters. I came good for a couple of days, but it seems when I find myself getting on track my anxiety needs to find something to bring me down.

thank you both so much for your informative information. It has given me some glimmer of hope xx.

Hi Dominique,

thank you for reading my introduction post. Pleased to me you along with all the other lovely people I have come across in this forum.

Anxiety/depression is a horrible illness and I wouldn’t wish it upon anybody. Have you found any techniques that help you relax at night?
