hi people im new at this kind of thing... im not the type of person to explain how i feel.. but i cant keep it inside nemore. im 21 and i can remember the day when i was 13 when i felt something wrong with me mentaly, but it was realy mild. every year it has gotten worst and worst. its getting to the point where it is effecting my life. well i should probably tell u whats wrong. basicaly extreme anxiety and emptyness, its just so hard to explain. i mean im sitting in my room right now and just feel scared to live and scared to die. im going crazy and that just freaks me out. i want to be normal and i know that will never happen again, i just want some help!
you need to see a doctor for the anxiety they should be able to give you some meds that may help you feel better........ i do understand what you are going thru my mom has the same thing they gave her some meds help her feel some better..
You should be diagnosed before you jump to any conclusions. What 21 year old doesn't have these same problems? Do you work? Do you go to school? Do you go out? I am of the belief that mental illness is not nearly as prevalent as we are lead to believe. It is over diagnosed, and we are far too willing to swallow a pill as opposed to correcting our lifestyles. Only you know where you stand with this. x
well first off thanx alot for getting back.. but what im going through is way to hard to try to to describe. i mean theres nothing more i would like to do then go getting diagnosed, but im so scared. i know that seems lame but its the truth. also i feel ashamed and i know all that bullshit like its not my fault but i dont want to be looked at differntly by my friends are faimly. i mean this is such a secret i have kept to my self for years, nobody has a clue. but now i feel they are going to know something is wrong cuz all i do is stay inside and i dont realy talk to anybody ne more. i dont want to go on meds but i feel i dont have a choice. also i dont even no why i would feel ashamed to tell my mom becuz she has mental issues to. she suffers from severe depression and anxity n she would understand me more then n e body. but still cant see myself telling her whats wrong with me. everybody knows me as a happy person but they have no idea what i go through every day. but i know ive wrote alot so ne more advise will def be appriciated thank u.
what people fail to see mental illness is the same as any other illness if you had high blood pressure you would go to doctor well mental stuff is no different........you need to see a doctor no reason to feel ashamed.......... your mom has it to and you most likely inhenerit from her.......but please just go to your family doctor or one out of town if you feel better doing that.....you really need help and it your job to get it
thanx hitman for the advise... do u suffer from ne thing?? i mean u seem to know what ur talking about.. ne ways i hope someday i can get the courage to tell my mom... i just want to be happy again... thats it... i mean i use to workout with a couple of my friends and that even gives me anxiety now.. i think cuz of my heart racing.. they just think im some lazy peace of shit that aint going to amount to nothing.. i wish everybody that talks shit about me can be in my shoes for one day.. just one fucking day.. but i have so much to say sorry about that thanx for taking ur time and helping me out
i don't suffer from it but my mom does..... anxiety is very debiltating my mom heart will race she will break out into a sweat get sick at her stomach and her mouth and throat get dry.... and anything can cause her to have a attack just like you do...... the meds they put her on does take the edge off of it but don't completely stop it...man if they had to live one day in your shoes they would never ever say anything else about it..... most people could'nt even take 1 day they would totaly freak out...don't worry about what people think of you it not worth wasting your time on..... you ain't crazy you just have a anxiety disorder no different than having any other thing wrong with you...... but i really want you to try to go to doctor you can go out of town to one where no one know you if that would make it better on you...cause it will keep getting worse if you don't get some help for it and remember it nothing to be ashamed about... so post back let us know how you feel or talk about anything you want.... we are all freinds here no one will judge you or flame you for having a disorder bye see you soon
hey once again thanx for getting back.. like i said i can remember the first day i started feeling different.. i was 13 in this girls attick.. i just remember getting depressed for no reason.. i would of never guessed it would get this extreame.. i mean i was able to cope with this until about 2 months ago.. its just realy makes me sad to think of how much people liked me and respected me.. i use to be on top of the world now im under a fuckin rock.. i mean i know im probably depresed and have anxiety but i know theres more to it then that.. i use to be so care free but now i worry about every thing.. i cant fly ne more i get nervous when i drive its just fucking everything.. i use to be able to smoke weed thats not even an option now... which yea it shouldnt be, but i wish i can be the person i was when i was able to.. i think about the past every day. and what scares me is what am i going to be like 10 years from now???
You should never be ashamed to seek help or at least looking into the possibility of mental illness. As he said its like any other type of sickness, it just needs treatment. I would definitely go talk to a doctor sooner rather than later. Can't hurt ya know?
yes they are much more to it than just anxiety there is the feelin of depression and feelin like you have lost control of your life.....my mom told me it was like a train coming at you and you was tie to the railway track and knew for certain it was going to run over you..... she even got where motion would cause her to have a panic attack....you will never be like you was before but with medicine you can feel not so trapped but i won't set here and tell you in 10 years you will be fine cause unless you get help you will never live that much longer....
ok all your would have to cover is dr visit and getting meds filled which you can get genric which are alot cheaper...... some dr visit are offer at a discounted price especially at some hospital if you ain't got any insurance
