What symptoms do you get or stress about when you have anxiety? Please answer!?
Posted on Sep 28, 2008 under anxiety symptoms |I’m just curious as to what symptoms everyone and anyone with an anxiety disorder gets when they have anxiety. Not just attacks, but just plain anxiety.. Mine include weird feeling in head, my entire body tenses up, shortness of breath, heart palpitations, crying, vision problems, tension headaches, empty feeling in my head.. etc. The list goes on (this is why my anxiety is so hard to get rid off.)
I freak out any time I throw up a lot. I feel like I can’t breath and I start to cry and hyperventilate. Another thing I can’t handle for some reason is coming out of anesthesia. I start to freak out sobbing uncontrollably and can’t breathe. I think anytime I feel out of control with my body I freak out. I’m way scared about going into labor and being alone.

you are mostly nervous and antsy about things not eating right, have you seek counseling or a psychotherapist.

Negative emotions (like sadness, stress, anger, etc.) causes your Serotonin production to be low; when your Serotonin level is low, you are more prone to getting Anxiety, Panic Attacks, Depression, etc.
Medication like Antidepressants (SSRI - Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor) helps to boost Serotonin level.
But there are natural ways to do it without medication. There’s this strange herb called “St John’s Wort” - it is said to be more effective than Prozac. No, it is not for mild depression only and ignore those sayings. In fact, it does help anxiety and panic-attacks as St John’s Wort works like prozac. Other natural ways will be exercise, diet, more exposure to light, etc.
The problem is that, even if your Serotonin is balanced… you have that “learned behavior” in your mind. You need to break that initial cycle to destroy that learned behavior - Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) does this. A technique that you can use without CBT will be Distraction… There are several other techniques to help cope them!
Ok, to use Distraction: Firstly, try to….
