Thread: When will I calm down?

  1. #1

    Exclamation When will I calm down?

    I'm new here, first post. I've suffered from bad health anxiety for a while now and frequently force symptoms to appear and then they usually go away. I was married yesterday and for the past two weeks symptoms I've never experienced before appeared like very heavy hand shaking, left side face numbness and internal shaking feeling. I feel like my nervous system is shutting down. I was coping because I thought I was just stressed but I'm not anymore. Could it be an actual illness? If it is anxiety how long should it take for my system to return to normal?

    Over the past two weeks your thoughts and energy have culminated in you having a high and persistent anxiety state. I don't have panic attacks nor have anything particularly that makes me anxious, but a mixture of my past worries has made my nerves a mess. I also have symptoms that change on an hourly basis, plus ones that are continuous. I hope this helps.

    Tonight I am particularly jittery, but I don't know why!

    I get all those symptoms and much more my list is endless,Sounds like you have had a lot of stress getting married can be a very stressful time especially the weeks before getting it organized your body is tired maybe causing your anxiety to take over a bit.
    Talk to your doctor maybe she can advise you a method to make you feel better

    Is it normal for those symptoms to be consistent? Shaking 24/7?

    Yep like dexter I have them 24/7, it's whether you choose to make them an issue if not, I've recently been able not to focus on them until today. Mwah!

    It's so hard not to! I'm going insane. I feel like I need to be committed. I now have bruises under my arm pits from checking my nodes which now that they are sore only make it worse! I used to just have 30 minute long panic attacks. Nows it's all day everyday

    That's rough. I've finally calmed down 2 mg of Xanax later which I hate taking but I just can't deal sometimes. Hopefully the mornin doesn't start out with crazy panic.
