It's getting harder everyday, my heart races a lot, I feel tension around my head, I'm feeling lost and confused, my thoughts are racing like 200 mph, having problems with 19 son, having a lot of problems with 17 daughter who lives with me, my true love girlfriend broke up with me two months ago, work is crazy, I don't really have friends here anymore, I have no one to talk to and no where to go, Im completely financially upside down, and I really can't stop thinking about my ex and not sleeping well. I've taking some non prescription anxiety medicine, it helped a little but not to much anymore. Im going to see a doctor for a prescription and make sure this is anxiety I'm having. But I don't get to see her for like two weeks. I really need something to take the edge off before I go Crazyyyyyyyyyyy !!!!!!!!!!!

I am sorry that you are having a rough time of it right now.:(

Raising kids on your own, and going through emotional issues due to a break up...add in money concerns, and you have enough stress to give anybody anxiety!

I am glad that you are seeking help medically. Medication and therapy are both excellent things to discuss with your doctor at your upcoming appointment...

but until then, you have to cope, so what have you tried as far as self-help goes? Have you checked out our Resource Guide here? (main page, 1st post) It is full of good ideas, and I would especially encourage you to try the breathing and relaxation exercises to bring down your overall stress levels and relieve your symptoms.

If practiced daily (2x a day for at least 10 min) you should see a realy difference in how you feel.

Keep posting here with us as well. We will be here to listen and support, and that can go a long way in helping as well.:)

Talk to you soon,

S.C.

Well I had my first therapy today and I was hoping she would have given me something but she did not. She told me to talk to my primary doctor. I just got a primary doctor and don't get to see her til the 21st of this month. Im trying other things to help deal with it. Right now its just nice to talk to other people. Thanks

Everyday I come to this forum to see that there are others that are suffering as I am & it really helps to know that you're not alone. rob0318, know that you are not alone. There are so many of us that feel the same as you do. The waiting is hard but we're all waiting for something to happen. I'm waiting for the paxil I just recently started to take effect. I've been seeing a therapist for a few weeks now & it sorta helps at the time but when I'm not talking with her, it all comes back. We're all on this crazy ride together & I hope that's as comforting to you as it is for me.
