Hi again.. I wonder if anyone can give me advice?

Hi,
A while ago i posted saying about my panic attacks but things seem to have gone from bad to worse, i am feeling constantly on edge, doubting reality and questioning everything, even simple things - for example i think philosophically about things such as looking, i wonder why i am alive whats going on and wonder if anyone else is real or if im asleep or something.. its so hard to explain but i feel so down and confussed about everything.

Has anyone been here before and does it get better? Cause im feeling like i can't take it sometimes and i really cant get **** thoughts out of my head

David

Do you know what I think David? I think that sometimes we think about it too much - I think we become obsessive about it & we get stuck in our thoughts & can't seem to get out of it. Then this obsessing makes us think weird thoughts & makes us paranoid. I think this because, that's what I'm like sometimes. My anxiety gets worse when I can't stop thinking & worrying about it. Now, how do we get out of this obsessive spiral ? I don't really know. Are you under alot of stress right now? Are you getting enough sleep? Sometimes when we are like that the panic & negative thoughts to become worse again. Is there anything in you life that is particularly worrying you (other than panic of course) that is making you more tense?

Hi David

It does get better. All those questions you are asking yourself now get so much easier when time gets involved.

The trust you have lost in yourself does come back. I doubted everything about myself and never thought i would be able to be anything like i was in the past but time and medication in my case helped me move forward. It wasnt easy and even now i look back to how i was and it still scares me but i overcame that and you will too hun and i will help you all i can.

You are not alone in how you feel and there are so many people on here that will support you through this.

Love Sal xx


Dont mess up the best things in your life, just because at present you are unsure who you are.


"Life is a distance and to travel that distance you were given the strength and guidance to do so".

THis does get better as you do . OFten this happens as we are recovering as we are less critical of ourselves and more of the age old questions of the outside world

odd thoughts...
Strange thoughts....Anyone else?
Silly thoughts
strange things!
worried...

thanks alot :)

I often wonder the big WHY ?
Why am i here, why is life so crap, what is my purpose etc etc,
Problem is all this is part of the spiral of negative thinking linked with depression, and yes quite normal for us sufferers.
i also spend a lot of time thinking what if ?, problem is most of the answers there involve winning the lottery :D
