Panic Disorder Or Something Else? Posted: 10-20-06 16:22pm
Im 18 years old and I have had alot of bad
anxiety attacks over this year, the
anxiety attacks are gone but from all of
them it feels like my mind has been
damaged. For the last 4 months I have
feared insanity, it might be putting me
into derealiztion. I feel depressed
sometimes and I just keep overthinking too
much and im scared I will think of
something that my mind cant comphrehend
and I will go crazy. Latly I have been
really sketching over this, I do see
little dot or flashes at the corner of my
eye but I understand that depression could
be the casue of that, and I few times I
heard my thought abit loud before I was
going to bed and it scared me. I don't
have delusions but I fear I will, I don't
acually see major things but I fear I
will, I don't hear other voises but I fear
I will im just a wreck right now. I still
play sports, im attending university in a
week, I act completely normal . I just
have this fear with me. Please respond
truthfull, if you do think it might be
schizo then tell me if not tell me too, I
just want some good information. Thanks
ps. I still get exited lots and laugh
lots, and lots of nights just before I go
to bed I almost feel normal and I go into
a good state of mind and I just sort of
laugh at why I felt that way, but when the
morning comes the fear and feeling strang
starts to come

I know it probably doesn't help, but I
know what you're feeling..I have major
anxiety and I really worry that in the
future, i'll just be one of those people
that inevitably goes crazy..I mean, you
dont have control over it..You dont have a
say in it..It just happens..And I really
think one day, i'll go crazy.. And I act
normal too...People would probably never
know that I have so many problems..But I
do..Stress gets to me more than a normal
person, I think, and I dont think people
would understand that.. My mind is always
in overdrive...I always over-think
things.. To the point that i'm imagining
scenarios in my head, and I believe
them..And I get mad at people for things
they didn't do, but I think they're
doing....I think i'm just a lost
cause..But I do know how you feel, and you
aren't the only one..I promise you, i'm
probably worse..The entire world is going
crazy..It's just..Not everyone can see it
yet...Everyone is naiive. I hope I made
yo0u feel bit better and not worse, which
I tend to do..Sorry.

I have panic disorder and I have done this
b4. Its jsut a part of the disorder.
You not really going to start hearing
things...Ect. And your not really going
crazy. Its one of your phobias and most
ppl with panic disorder have this phobis
of going"crazy" and the problem of
thinking to much about things. Just
wondering, have your ever thought about
getting on meds. I have had my disorder
fo about 5 years now and meds and
counseling helps me a lot. Just a
thought that maybe you should talk to your
doc about. I know if helped me stop
thinking so much about negitive things and
letting my mind get away with me. Your
mind will play tricks on you if you let
it. Which in turn helped my panic
disorder.
