I was diagnosed with GAD about 8 years ago, after I was terribly ill before a holiday, and I've been on and off medication since.
My main issues are the physical symptoms, particularly stomach issues and nausea. When I'm having a particularly bad time with it all I come on here to read and reassure myself.
The problem I have is that there is no root cause to my anxiety symptoms, I feel on edge, tense, my stomach is noisy, I need the toilet a lot, I'm nauseous, wrenching, often vomit, no appetite, shake uncontrollably, hot then cold then hot again... yet I have no idea what I'm worried about.
My work life is ok and my family life is great, and as such I feel like a bit of a fraud.
I've been suffering quite badly over the last week or so and was terrible last night only getting an hours sleep. I feel like if I could put my finger on a problem, a worry, then I could try and solve the issues but there's nothing.
Thanks.
