whats your anxiety pet peeve ?

Mine is dizziness!!!!!!!! Oh how I hate you dizziness!

Depersonalization!!! By far the worst!

Visual distortion, I have to close one eye to stop it.

Anxiety Freak, In the past mine was dizziness, I would lay down on my bed too sleep wake up and my head would spin in a vicious circle looked like the entire room spun around. I would scream and then the dizziness went away that's around the time where I lived less righteous so bad things happened. Another is a strange feel in my throat which occurs in the present time every now and then. It can be controlled better through breathing more deeply into the belly where the breath is more quite and I can't hear the chuckle sound in my voice box. Every time I take breath into my nostrils to push it down my throat it happens, but when air is pushed out by the belly the sound disappears. The last is my face tends to tighten up and for that I keep my face muscles relaxed. Continue to BREATHE cause most people who are attacked by anxiety don't BREATHE. The other major problem is there not breathing enough.

Mine is not being able to breathe or get that 'big breath' as I always call it.

Feeling I'm going to die/collapse.

Heart awareness.

Lung disease fear.

What has helped me so much from being on here is a lovely lady I met one evening in the 'chat' and she told me to keep repeating to myself;

'I'm fine, I'm okay, I'm going to be fine' etc and it really did work.

If she's by any chance reading...thank you SO much, lovely.

You probably already know my story, thats why I understand your fears fo well, I was in perfect psycial condition when they discovered my heart problem and wouldn't allow me to re-enlist, I was only 35 could run
swim nothing seemed to bother me. after the diagnosis I was never at peace again until after I had my HA
and triple bypass. It was after I recovered and started exercising again that I realized I was given a great
gift. When a little self doubt and fear would creep in I would think if God wanted me dead He had a great
opportunity during surgery. "I have a short saying that may give you the Peace you need.
God has ordained that I must one day die, until then I refuse to die every day"! Red, if you didn't have any
kind of health problem anxiety would make you think you had everything known to man. I wasted about 25 to 30 years of my life wrestling this demon, it was my Faith that won my life back for me.
Feel free to ask me anything.

I am very new to this forum... but need some one to relate with. That's my biggest pet peeve. The face that I feel so alone. My boyfriend doesn't understand what I am going through. We were out with some friends the other night and I wasn't feeling well. I sent him a text. After I sent it, I look over and see him roll his eyes at my message. It's so frustrating and the more I want to be better the worse it seems to get. :(

Hi I.S.H,

I'm sorry you feel misunderstood.

I would sit your bf down and gently explain to him just how crippling and frightening serious anxiety is.

There is much information to offer him, and some designed specifically for loved ones.

Sometimes it will be fear making him act in this way.
