I was just choked by an overwhelming sense of doom for some reason. I feel like my heart is beating a lot louder than normal. I'm scared & I have no idea why.

Neutral

Sorry if I sound nutso.

I'm just in a weird state of paranoia right now.

I had exactly the same thing with my anxiety attacks Sad

They are NOT FUN and so very,very scary.

I was convinced I was having a heart attack and was in the emergency room at least 3 times a week thinking I was dying.It took a pretty cluey nurse to realise I was having post partum anxiety.It is really common.

You should go talk to your doctor to get coping strategies.Maybe see someone who can help?


I still have them now,(had a pretty bad one last night)but I do some deep breathing techniques,and try and talk myself through them.

I'm so sorry your having them Krissy,they are terrible things to have.

PM me in you want to talk,I know what it's like.

I've already been diagnosed with depression & severe anxiety.. So I know I have problems in that area. I see a therapist on a regular basis. I'm not really having an attack, though. It's just a bad feeling. But I'm alrite.

It does suck.

I'm glad it's not an attack cuz they suck BIG time.

But I'm sure the bad feelings your having right now still feel terrible,and are really hard to shake.

I'm glad your seeing someone though,hopefully you will be able to sort it out because its really not a very nice thing to have Sad

I'm worst at night time,I can not be alone at night,at all.Or else I have a mega freak out.I've lost count of the times I called the anbulance because I was convinced I was dying.Its that impending sense of doom that just falls over you.


Hope you feel better soon Krissy,go give Gabe a big kiss,try and take your mind of it...
