Not Sure What It Is? Help? Ideas? Posted: 05-24-05 21:29pm
Lately I have been getting these
3-10minute periods in a day where I start
to think about my self, my body, my
relationship, college work, work itself
etc... And I feel short of beath and
anxious, worked up, I just feel out of
myself for a small amount of time and then
im ok, for the most part.... Is it
anxiety or just plain old stress??? It's
been enough to make me notice the
change...

I dont know what it is but its a fun ride,
I get that too, and at least I have
anxiety disorder.

Sure sounds like anxiety...But luckily
mild anxiety!
I am sure that it is still frustrating,
and bothers you a great deal,,,,but I hope
that because you have caught yourself
obsessing so early in the game - you'll be
able to beat the health questions before
the anxiety increases.
First, know that every person on this big
green planet, at some point has had some
depressing, anxiety causing thoughts.
But, some of us "lucky" :roll: ones can
create something greater and make
ourselves feel defeated by our own
minds.
Because we can create anxiety with our
minds, can't we destroy it?
From what i've learned from the program I
went through, this is the only cure.
(though medicine can help, it cannot
cure)
next time you begin to feel the anxiety
rush in,,,,,try to calm yourself.
Breathe deeper and slower - in through
your nose out the mouth.
That alone will help to calm you heart,
and distract the mind somewhat from your
other thoughts.
I guess next is to feed yourself positive
thoughts, and ideas...Though I haven't
been very good at that part...But I hope
you are.
Good luck, and let us know how you are
doing! :mrgreen:
