Hello everyone feeling these anxiety symptoms again!!! I honestly think it's my special time of the month in about a week, but anyyy whooo feeling thoughts of dying as usual why????? Well I also have the throat tightness again!!! Honestly I've been doing pretty good on this celexa that I started over two months ago. I take xanax as needed, which I really don't take hardly probably only took 5 out of 30 pills. I don't like how it have me feeling all gloomy and passed out, but maybe because it's when I'm at home whining down, to afraid to take during the day when it really hit's me the most uggghhh anyway thanks for listening. I love this site ya'll are wonderful people you'll have help me in so many ways thank you. Blush cry cry just don't understand why I keep letting this trick me every time!!!!! I want control!!!!

Not a day has gone by since I had my daughter in April that I don't think i'm dying of SOMETHING (the last few months it's been heart attack...a few months before that was stroke...then MS..etc etc) I've been to the ER about 5-6 times in the last 4 months. I've always had health anxiety but as soon as I had my daughter it's gone through the ROOF. I have no relief..no matter where I am or what i'm doing I am thinking of my health..my heart..if it's pounding...it's so exhausting. I wish I could be someone else for just one day!

My overall nervous anxiety is down but my health anxiety is through the roof. I keep on thinking that I'm going to have a heart attack but everything always checks out fine. I also need to stop myself from getting tricked.

2Serious,

I am sorry that you are feeling so awful right now. Remember that a lot of this has to do with your cycle...and just accepting that could help this from becoming a trigger that gets the best of you.

Repeat this mantra while deep breathing until you feel the anxiety leave with each exhale, and the calmness wash over you with each inhale.

"I have felt this anxiety due to hormones before. This is just extra anxiety currently, and I am going to be alright."

I hope that this brings some relief soon! Let us know how you are doing later.

With understanding and support.

S.C.

Hey 2Serious!

I think Scaredy Cat had some great advice! I have similar anxiety during that "time" but have learned to diffuse it with self-talk like, "This is just anxiety." "This is uncomfortable, but this is not going to last forever." "This too shall pass."

I believe self-talk helps my mind get a grip and be able to ride out those terrible feelings/thoughts a little better. Also, if there is any "pampering" that you can do during this time, that helps as well. Relaxing bubble baths, cucumbers on the eyes, bagels with cream cheese, white hot chocolate, hmmmmmm.....anything you find relaxing!!

Best wishes to you!
