Hi guys. I didn't know where to post this exactly, so put it here. I used to suffer with anxiety a few years ago, but it returned after a stressful period in my life about a year ago. I had it under control (kind of) up until last week. Now it's back with a vengeance.
I have had a terrible week of it. I have resisted the urge to go to the hospital one night the past week as things got so bad. I was worried about my heart so much. I kept having palpitations and I was paranoid I could feel my heart beating irregularly.
I got back to normal a little the day after, but my anxiety was frustrating me. I thought I was calm during some days, but my heart rate was still high. I was getting cold extremities, especially in the fingers. I am still paranoid about my heart but things gave calm down a little.
It is just so horrible to deal with. I go to bed at night pretty relaxed (as much as I can) and then in the morning I wake up with anxiety feeling flustered, along with palpitations. It is very annoying. It is hard to keep calm though as it worries me, and that leads to more panic.
I am even scared to go to the gym lately as I worry about having a panic attack there. It's embarrassing because even gatherings and family get togethers have to be put on the back burner because at the moment I am socially anxious. I don't know the answer, but I am fed up with it. I could really use some advice.
