  1. Sounds like it's anxiety that's situational bc you have so much stress going on. Try to calm yourself and do things/activities that help you relax that you enjoy. Try talking to friends and family. I find talking it out helps me greatly. You can talk to us like you are now. Getting your worries off your chest can really help. Good luck my friend and know we are here for you!

     

    I'm going to agree with what Lea said and say that it is likely anxiety due to all that has transpired as of late.  That is a *lot* of stress to shoulder, and you might be getting anxiety from it without even realizing that you're feeling anxious.  I think you might be surprised by how many people experience anxiety (I know that I have on multiple occasions, though not as bad as others, I'm sure), so please don't feel bad to talk about it!  Talking has helped me tremendously, just having someone there that understands and can help me rationalize what I'm going through.  Keep posting, chatting, and I'm always up for a PM should you ever wish to talk deeper. : )  You're not alone, and you'll get through this!

     

    Believe me, it is really really beneficial if you go to a doctor, it's not very good to go on thinking you have it, because that's how you develop it if you don't already have it, if you go to a doctor, you can get it confirmed or denied right away, and he can recommend medication or support if it might just be a bit of a stress related issue. 

    Please don't worry about it, you'll be okay, just relax, send me a message when you can and we can talk about it if you like?   :)

     

    I think that's what's causing it. I'm not a doctor but that's what I believe is the problem. So many things happened and now it's overwhelming you. My advise is to surround yourself as much as possible with happy things and know that it's going to be okay. You will find a job. Your parents will find a job.

    I certainly believe that coun​seling will help even if you don't think it will. A therapist will coach you on how to handle such situations and help you cope with it.

    I ​also think you should talk to your parents about this as well. A good old talk, support, comfort, reassurance, hugging and even a few tears helps drastically.

     

    Thank you all so much :D It means so much to me! You all have been really helpful and super kind, it really means a lot to me. I really wish I could give you all a hug :3 But this will have to do for now

  2. First off, thank you so much everyone for the suggestions. It really means a lot. My anxiety has never been like this before, so I felt like I was stuck in a corner. And I am taking all of your suggestions and applying them (such as talking with my parents) and considering to get help from a doctor. So thank you all so so much :3<3

    Edit: I honestly was super scared to post about this... I really have been scared to talk about any of this. And you guys have been really comforting and nice. It means so much and I really appreciate it.

     

    Make sure to cut back back on caffeine and get plenty of rest. Also, try doing something you enjoy to get your mind off of the anxiety. Happiness can be a great cure to many ailments! God bless you! Hope ya feel better. :)

    I'll be sure to try and cut back with caffeine. Even though I don't consume much. Maybe one or two sodas when I go out, which I barely go out. But I'll definitely keep it in mind.

     

    Are you having lots of stress in your life? That can bring on anxiety attacks. Also you should see a doctor because it can also be that your body is chemically imbalanced and that can be why. A professional can help you with this.

     

    I have also had anxiety or panic attacks as a side effect of my crohns meds and imbalances and needed medical intervention so it helps to seek out a professional to sort out the cause. Despite a few bumps along the way it did help me.

    Yes actually. I have had a lot of stress in my life recently. I lost my job last month, even my parents lost their job. And it's been a bit rough. I've been looking for work since, but I have had no luck. Just, so much has been changing and shifting this year so far. I just don't know if I should really consult a doctor... I really don't know what they can do to help.

     

    Just breathe in and out slowly, I have an anxiety disorder so I know exactly how you feel. I'd go see a doctor if I were you to get confirmation on it, because it may just be an odd anxiety attack brought on by stress or some family problems or something like that. So first of all, go see a doctor and see what he/she thinks about this.

    I've considered talking to a doctor, but I really don't know if I really should. Like, they really can't make it go away. I just don't know if I see a point to consult one.

     

    Has anything happened recently? Perhaps there's a big school assignment or something that's troubling you. Or maybe it's getting worse because you're so stressed out over it that you're suffering anxiety of the thought that it might go worse. I know exactly how you feel girl and I hope the best for you!I say your best bet is to at least tell your mom or dad about what's going on and that it's really making you scared and you want to go to the doctor. In the meantime, try to surround yourself with happy things and distract yourself as much as possible with activities that make you happy.Also, try to consume less caffeine. You said you don't consume caffeine unless you go out. Try to consume less sugary things and chocolate and see if that helps!

    Basically what I told Flaming Lea. A lot of change has been happening and it's been scary. I've had changes in my life like this happen multiple times, but for some reason my anxiety really started up this time. I just feel like I'm stuck...

    Thanks for all the suggestions. I'll definitely try to keep positive things around me.

    Have you recently made any changes to your lifestyle?  Perhaps either an additional medication, exercise routine, new friends, classes, et cetera?  It sounds to me that something is influencing this anxiety, whether it be underline nerves, fears, thoughts, or even something like a medication.  I know that some medicines can cause panic attacks and anxiety, but other lifestyle changes could be causing it, too.  Sometimes anxiety can be very unapparent; you may not feel scared, but something is perceived as a threat and thus your body starts to go into a state of panic, causing all of those symptoms.

     

    I am no doctor and don't want to say what the issue is for sure.  While it sounds like a bit of an anxiety disorder there may very well be a medical cause.  This is unlikely, but it is a possibility (I don't want to scare you, though; you're probably just fine and are experiencing a bit of newness in your life that is causing you to feel this way).  I know that you mentioned a new guy that you're going out with . . . has it been ever since then that these anxiety bouts would occur?  In my experience, sometimes I can start having panic issues without even realizing that I'm scared or worried about something.

     

    I wish you the best of luck, and know that we're all here for you. : )

    Yes, just like I told Flaming Lea and Aqua. A lot has changed, in a scary way, and usually I'm the positive girl that doesn't let things take me down. But this time, it isn't the case.And well... I asked him out the last week of January. Since I don't go to school with him/since I'm homeschooled, I haven't seen him since. Because his phone is broken, and we both agreed it'd be better to wait till his phone is fixed before we actually go out. His phone should be fixed by the end of this month and the beginning of this month. But I don't know... Maybe it's just everything changing, on top of me asking him out and just everything. I've never been in a relationship, so I don't know. All of it is just a bit much to take in all at once...Seriously, thank you all so much. It means to much :)


  3. Have you been drinking a lot of caffeine lately? Sometimes things like coffee or tea can cause you to have anxiety, especially make your heart beat fast. I'm an anxious person, myself, and sometimes I get anxiety spells like yours when I drink coffee. I'll breathe slightly faster, my chest will start to kind of hurt, i'll get shaky, and i'll get panicky. So, you're not alone.

     

    Just take deep breaths and continue to tell yourself that whatever your feeling/fearing is nothing but anxiety messing with you. That you'll be fine and you'll get through it. Hope you feel better. :)

    Thank you :)

    I actually don't drink coffee or tea. I don't really consume much caffeine. I only ever consume caffeine when I go out.


  4. Hey everyone! :)I haven't been here for a while, but I honestly didn't know where else to go to talk about this, and I just want an opinion of what I should do. I'll just start.

     

       So for the last three weeks I've been having Anxiety attacks. Not like breakdown anxiety, or I can't breathe. But like, it just comes out of nowhere. I get all shaky, sometimes dizzy, my chest sometimes tightens up. But most of the times my hearts is racing/beating hard and I'm scared, for no reason. And my take super quick breaths. I'm not thinking about anything stressful or anything. I either think of friends, or maybe a vacation I want to go on, or a guy that I asked out recently, who said yes. (Mostly him)

     

    But they just come out of nowhere. I get all panicky, snappy and just feel so anxious. I don't know what's wrong with me. I never get random anxiety attacks. I've been super drained lately, no matter how little or how much sleep I get. Nothing is working. To top it all off, I've been getting random headaches for the past five days. I just don't know what to do... I try to talk to my mom about it, but I just stop because I end up stuttering and I just drop the topic.I don't know the point of this anymore. I just don't know what to do. It's kind of freaking me out. This isn't like me, at all. All I really want is maybe some advice, maybe to get my head straight. Because I can't think of anything that would help...Thanks for your time~Sorry this is all over the place.
