Wondering if you ever feel better. I do not. Along with getting the whole body tremors and dizzy all the time. Then I get a double ear infection on top of all this. What a blast. Woke up to vertigo a week ago and have been feeling like im moving while sitting still. Sorry all this alone can drive you nuts. For some reason I feel i have to get out and go in the car all the time to even feel half way better! How does one cope with these feelings? Also dont feel like taking the time to get ready every day. And yes its easier said than done to ignore all these symptoms and try to do your regular things.I feel they need an anxiety center for people to ck into till they get better and then come home! lol. no im serious. Trying to take care of my family has become a chore. And listening to my kids every day is unbearable. So what does a person do now? No im not on drugs for anxiety. I dont want to be.. but some times i wonder if i need to be? Any one have a in put on this?

YA KNOW I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT THING ABOUT THE CAR. WHEN I FIRST GOT ANXIETY I FELT SO MUCH BETTER IN THE CAR TOO.
ALSO ABOUT GETTING READY IN THE MORNING AND GOING SOEMWHERE UNTIL ALL BETTER. I THOUGHT OF ALL THAT STUFF. THAT VERTIGO IS THE WORSE. THATS WAHT PUT ME IN MY ANXIOUS STATE. THAT TENDS TO GO AWAY AND YOUR LEFT WITH ANXIETY. I AM ONLY ON STJOHNS WORT AND OTHER NUTRITIONAL SUPPLEMENTS WHICH HELPED . ALL MTY BST TO YOU JT |

This really shows how perception has a lot to do with anxiety. I get in the car and feel anxious.
One thing I have learned is to be realistic, and in the present moment. But I have learned that life is neither a Disney Movie or a Science Fiction scary one either. One day and one thing at a time. I can't say that I have any answers to what you are feeling. But I do know that I have had all those symptoms too. Dizzy, stomachaches, etc. You do get better through working to manage your anxiety. It takes time because you have created some of the feelings by the reactions you have either learned either through defense or survival mechanisms. The hard part is changing but you have to if you are going to feel better. I'm dealing with that right now. I have learned that if I feel sick or messed up with my anxiety--it is something that I am telling myself. For instance, I tend to get dizzy or that unrealy blurry feeling and have to sometimes talk myself out of it or get to the bottom of what is bothering me. I am a very sensitive person. In my instance, I feel that I need to remember that my family does not make decisions for what I think or do. And I don't necessarily need to account to them for my opinions, etc. Or try to please them or make everyone get along. The other day I went to the mailbox and started to feel that I could not move once I got there. I stopped and asked myself--what is going on (at first for a split second I got scared or phobic) Then I realized I did not want to go into the house and then it spiraled into a few other things that were bothering me. I went back into the house and was fine. I think that if you don't address what is bothering you sometimes the anxiety will distort it through your body. It's like leftovers from stuffing worry or some kind of pain. It needs to come out somewhere. Sorry about the soapbox-but that is what I have learned. And believe me I am still working on it too. God Bless. Andi
