Can anyone relate to having an all over weak feeling sometimes. This happened to me yesterday and from that point I started to feel anxious again, have constant butterflies in my tummy and just feel like crying as I had been doing so well the last week. It seems to be when I get a sensation in my body I see it as a threat And I start to panic. Having CBT at the moment And been on sertraline for 3 months which is helping a little. Was feeling fine up until yesterday afternoon then feel all nervous again. Sometimes I feel shaky if I need to eat but had eaten yesterday when it happened. This is my first post so hoping to find support. I have two kids 13 and 12 so need to be strong for them. Have suffered with anxiety on and off for 8 years and been in despair with it at times. Look forward to any replies.:)
