Here lately, for probably the past 6 days, I have been having quite a few skipped beats in my heart rhythm. I try not to worry myself over them, because I know that will make it worse. I did go to...
I had to have a colonoscopy back in October because of some issues I was having, and I was scared to death. My grandfather passed away in his early forties because of colon cancer, so I was really...
I have been fighting with dizziness for the last few months. It is an everyday thing, it comes and goes, and seems to get worse whenever I feel the slightest bit stressed. I mentioned it to my family...
Today hasn't been too bad for me. I have been doing a little better with anxiety, although I have been fighting with dizziness a lot lately and don't know why. I am assuming it is anxiety related,...
I didn't really realize I had anxiety issues until I was 19 when I had my first panic attack. I have always been an anxious person, but it wasn't until then that I knew I needed to start taking...
I understand completely. I come on here a lot and read other people's post to remind myself I am not alone. My family and friends have a hard time understanding, and I feel like I am being judged a...
Thanks everyone for your responses. It's nice to know that I can talk about my issues on here. I really wanted to start therapy, but am having a scheduling issue, so don't know if it will happen or...
I have been really having a hard time lately thinking I always have something fatally wrong with me. A few months ago I started getting this burning pain in the left side of my neck that was driving...
Hi Len. It sounds like you could have an anxiety issue, maybe even depression? I was 20 when my parents got divorced, and it really caused me a lot of anxiety. I had my first panic attack around that...
Hi, sorry to hear you're having trouble. I started having anxiety attacks again a few months ago, and it is exhausting trying to fight them off everyday. Mine too seem to occur more at night, and...

I've had anxiety my whole life, but lately it has just gotten out of hand. I'm 27 years old with four kids, the youngest being only 5 months. I also have a 17 month old, so having two little ones so...
I have pretty much self diagnosed myself to be a hypochondriac, lol. It's really hard for me to not blow everything out of proportion too. If i get a headache, I'm afraid I have a tumor, if I get a...
I went to the dr recently because i had a weird numbness/ache in my left temple area. I was so scared I had a blood clot or something... i had a ct scan done and they couldn't find anything. I really...
Kitt, Thank you. I really hadn't thought too much about post partum anxiety. All you ever hear about is ppd. But I will look into that. My husband is usually pretty good about giving me a little...
4 months before I decided medication wasn't for me. I struggled keeping my nerves under control for a while, but I started getting better. In the last 2 years I have added two little boys to our...
I totally understand where you are coming from. I started having panic attacks when i was 19. They scared me to death. I had to be put on Ativan to help me, but I took myself off from them after...
