Here I am sitting in bed shaking, being scared. I know it is all in my mind and that this too shall pass but all I am concerned with is to keep it as much as I can in me. I don't want to react like mad and call my boyfriend a million time , not becuse I would not want to but because I know he will think I am super needy and clingy.
That is my story. I was diagsoEd with generalized anxiety syndrome,and eating disorder. I feel that this is taking over my life. I need to have a buddy here that goes through the same thing and becOme super good friends maybe later in real life!
I need friends, I have noone in my life other than my family who is an ocean apart and a newly boyfriend here. God knows where that will lead. I am just trying to keep him away from my symptoms or else he will run away. Who wants to deal with anxious and needy people?

Just prayed for you both! Try to start telling yourself things that are real. Birthdates, your favorite movies, songs, ect. Sonething that helps me is to start doing something very physical. Push ups, situps, high knees, ect. Bless you both and I will continue to lift you in prayer.

You both need distraction, why not get on the chat line hear and talk to each other, Kortnie this is a
chance to return God's Favors. Bless you both and yes I will pray for you! Peace

Hi Andrehun and welcome!

We have a lot of people here to support you and yes, you will make friends as well.:)

As far as making friends close to your area... is there a community center or women's club (YWCA) nearby where you could take some classes of interest to you?

Are you at all inclined to go to church? Or to volunteer somewhere such as a soup kitchen or animal shelter?

These are all great places to meet others and make friends!

As far as anxiety help goes, have you consulted your doctor about possible treatments? If not, I would encourage you to do so. There are a couple of things that you could discuss including medication and/or therapy.

For now, have a look on our main page, 1st post. These are our Resources here, full of great self-help ideas. Give them a look and try the breathing and relaxation exercises, everyday for a week and see how you feel. These bring down overall stress levels, reducing anxiety, panic and symptoms.


Keep posting with us as well. We are here to listen, understand and support anytime.:)
