Hi all,
Well as the title says I live my anxiety out on my own at the moment, don't feel I can talk to anyone about it so thought you people may listen and understand abit more then those around me!! So here goes!!
Well I've struggled with what I didn't know back then as anxiety from my early school days (I'm now 28) it's slowly getting worse to the point I've come to the time it's time to speak about it and get help.
I struggle with a lot of things there's not a certain thing that sets it off and sometimes it doesn't need to be anything at all! I feel I'm starting to get OCD in my daily routine and if this is messed up in anyway anxiety sets in, my main struggle is travel away from home, every single time I go away I convince myself I am Ill, even though by now I know the symptoms and how I feel I still can't get it into my head its the anxiety making me feel this way.
How do you start to explain how you feel to someone who doesn't suffer with anxiety??
I'm now booked to go to New York in December with 2 friends and the anxiety is already setting in... Guaranteed a week before ill start to feel ill, sickly, upset tummy, palpitations,breathlessness, aching arms and legs, headaches,tiredness
The tiredness is one thing that overtakes my body when I go away, the level of anxiety wipes my body out then all I want to do is sleep!! Arrgghhhh it's taking over my life! I don't want to feel like this!!!
Right I'm going to leave it at that for now... I could go on and on!! It just feels so nice to get it off my chest in a place where people feel the same and don't think I'm over reacting or strange!!
Thank you
