Why do I feel like this will I be normal again.....

Ok I first got my panic attack like 2 weeks before Christmas and from then the next few day I felt like I was going to lose myself I thought that no one would be able to help me I didn't know wat was going on so I freaked out till the Point where I searched my feeling on the Internet and read tons of stuff on anxiety and well that reassured me that It's common and your not alone I'm new by the way I'm 14 currently starting yr nine this yr and I don't want this to get in front of my studies... Well then back to the point after that I felt a tension a pressure in my head like someone was squashing my head and I thought what if its a tumor or something bad so I freaked out again and this time even my mum freaked out that we went to the doctors and told them this and she diagnosed me with it I mean I new it when I was 8 I used freak out just by a storm I've alway been a nervous person but now it's stronger. Most of the time I worry that I won't overcome this I don't want to take pill coz I don't want them to affect me bad since I'm still growing and coz they don't alway help but either way I still wouldn't and well I normally would start to feel anxious if my head or I'm in discomfort wer I'm usually good and my heart would start racing and I'd start panicking but I've managed to prevent 1 by having a bath in hot water and exercising but just recently I've started trembling and just shaking not full on but small but annoying and my heart would race after I manage to calm myself a bit I would feel a tightness in the middle of my chest like a pressure but it goes when I relax.Ok I've been anxious for the past 2 days I don't know why I have anxiety but the reason i got that I forgot about the ages ago and now that I have like 2 more day to start my new school I just get anxious for no reason but I thinks that at the back of my mind its that ^^ I woke up anxious today heart racing and then I started trembling and getting anxious for no reason I went outside then I felt like throwing up but u just started dry gagging when I smelt food I no it's common to get that wen ur like this and they say that's y u should keep ur jaw open to eliminate that nauseous feeling i managed to calm myself for the whole day . but I'm in bed rite now at 3:48 am in the morning a while ago I was calm now I just randomly started feeling anxious and I'm trembling i can't exactly jog or have. A bath what can I do so I don't wake up feeling like this and in time for me to strt school I no it's long but I have to wait till the 13th to see my psychologist and I very anxious my trembles are the small but annoying one that come and go what can I do to calm myself I'm texting a friend and his calmed me down a lot but I want this to stop help I'm 14 and I don't want this to control me sorry for the length .....:/ I seem to be calm when I'm out with people friends or anyone who I enjoy being with but then at home I feel anxious and it's a great household except the privacy and noise u see I'm Spanish and I have a autistic sister and a menopausal mum and I get those symptoms mostly there I do tend to relax to u see my mum supports me but when I tell her I'm feeling anxious she would stare at me and say stop thinking non sense and I tell I'm not thinking about anything I'm just anxious and need to relax how do I stop being anxious and trembling and how do I make sure I don't wake up anxious like yesterday morning I spent an hour trying to relax and calling kids helpline to give me ways to calm down I freak out about the chest tight ness that I'm scared is it normal I haven't had those ultrasounds but I've had blood tests and they said I'm fine only I need vitamin d and calcium an lower my cholesterol a bit and lose weight I'm not obese just over weight but I've lost 3-4 kgs and striving for more please can anyone recommend natural remedies the pharmacist show me some lollies and sprays that have ingredients that calm our body like chamomile I also have tension headaches and they go away but it may also be coz I need glasses we'll see I'm very worried ill be like this forever and they make fun I me at my new school because I have this or if I'm alone and make no friends I think wat affected me was when I was told I'm leaving my old school and I spent every minute crying not wanting to leave my friends but they didnt care and now for some reason I get hot when I sleep that even if its cold ill put the fan on I don't like drench myself in sweat just feel hot please give me answers I m feeling anxious rite now but calmed myself with yoga.

Oh sorry, I just re-read your post, and it looks like you are scheduled to see a psychologist? That is great, and I am sure that you will receive good treatment, and be on the road to feeling better.:)

For those times when you are feeling fearful...like in the middle of the night. Or when you are worrying about things in the future, like your new school...try repeating a positive phrase over and over to yourself. You could say something like:

"I am okay, it is only anxiety that is making me feel this way, and it will pass."

-or-

"I am going to have nothing but good things coming my way at my new school."

I say mantras often. The words we say to ourselves have power, and it will help reduce the anxiety that you are feeling!

<span style="line-height: 115%; font-size: 12pt;">Anxiety
disorders are brought on by our own personalities. We make ourselves this way
by the way that we think. Compulsions, panic attacks, constant worry..... these
are all symptoms that are caused by the same thing.....our constant need to
over-analyze and pick apart everything.


<span style="line-height: 115%; font-size: 12pt;">People with
anxiety are very intelligent, over-thinkers. Our favorite phrase is What if?
There is nothing wrong with us. We are not sick or having a nervous break down.
We just think too much! And we have trained our brain to constantly look for
the negative in things. Always. It has become a habit. But the good news is
that it is a habit that you can break, just by changing the way you think. It
doesn't happen overnite. It can take a year or more to retrain your brain to
think in a healthy way, but it can be done. My whole life is completely better.

Emily, I'm so sorry you are dealing with this too! I'm new here also. :)
