Ohh...:( I bet being away from home might have something to do with it. Yikes :( I am sorry that you are feeling this way; maybe there is something else you can take to take the edge off? I hope that you start feeling better! *hugs*  |

Do you have anything that makes you sleep? Perhaps you should take something and just go to bed for the evening. I go through anxiety problems too and sometimes 'escape' is the best course of action for me.  |

odd angle but you are with a friend this weekend, is there any chance that your increased anxiety is from an energy other than your own?  |

That is possible. But if you do continue to feel that way you should really go back to the doctor to let them know. I hope things get better!!*HUGS* TarheelGirl  |

Oh wow I don't know.... is there anything stressing you out or making you uncomfortable? Something you're worried about? It could be the fact you're away from home... that could do it. Maybe you should find something to do that usually makes you happy, something that takes off some of the stress? I wish I knew what to tell you that could help! I think being away from home would do it to me though. Hope you feel better!  |

wow, now you do sound like me when you said, " I'm thinking too much" Gee I thought i was the ONLY one that did that. I mean I have to keep busy, on usm, writing books, cleaning house, reading ANYTHING to keep my mind from thinking. I even have to take something each night to help me fall to sleep as I CANT STAND to lie in bed with the lights off as then I think, and when I do, its about every horrible, terrible things that has happened or could happen. Praise God I'm off my meds now during the day, as well, hehehe I keep busy. I take some benyadral at night perhaps you could try that.  |

Which is exactly why I think you need sleep so you can sleep off some of the anxiety instead of dwelling on it. But you know what works for you, so please don't think I am criticizing, I was just trying to help. |

I hate when I feel like what you are talking about. I ahve been feeling that way for the past few weeks and its now just turned into dep depression. I don't want to talk t anyone, I don't want to answer the phone, I don't want to go to work. I just want to curl up in a ball and disappear. *sigh* I guess I need to take my medication as well. |

WEll, I just put a post up about how I always all my life have felt inferior, perhaps that is one reason. Oh yeah, and have panic attacks from hell. When I was going through a really rough time a few years back, I drank everyday for three years, JUST so I wouldnt have to think. I've curbed this habit for the most part, yes I have a beer now and then as it does relax me. But it was to the point that If anything happened to make me tense, I reached for the bottle. It took me five years to kick it. But I dont worry about me, I go nuts about everyone else tho. Yea, me too, I like to have control, but have none. I feel as I do know what will happen when we die and there fore that doesnt bother me at all. DEATH does, the getting from here to there, lol, but not being dead. Does that make sense? I always wonder how scary or painfull it might be. But at least the complusive disorder I had has gone away. I swear I would look at my pills, read the name on the bottle, take the pill out of the bottle go to the sink and get a glass of water. Put the pill almost to my mouth and then think, DID I GET THE RIGHT ONE?? So then I would go back over to my pills, undo all the bottles, check again, ok, right one, go to the water, put the pill in my mouth and then spit it out again, and check it ONE MORE TIME. LOL I cant believe I really use to be that bad. BUT after almost dying from an allergic reaction, I'm scared of medications and WONT take them unless I've taken them before, and sometimes not even then without having to talk myself into it for a week. LOL YEP I'm strange. |
