I'm a 1* year old female who suffers from severe anxiety.

I have always had a problem with my worries. I alway worry about everyone else and myself. After this past year i had a run-in with ecstacy. This has made the problem so much worse and no one my age understands. I have told my mom about this but nothing has taken place of what she has spoken of. I never sleep, I can never sleep away from home, I have a shortness of breath hit me out of no where. My heart races, i feel like im dying and no one understands they just look at me like i'm stupid and i feel like i need help. I also get these feelings like i am going to go insane and i am going to do something stupid and its hard to calm myself down... after these ''attacks'' i am getting it follows with depression. All i do is dwell, and wish i was the old me who never worried. I also get these weird feelings in my head, like there is a tight band strapped on my head or the back of my head will get tingly and pop... I have done breathing out of a bag, deap breaths. I guess my case is much more severe then using these mild, temporary actions of relief. I always have something on my mind BUT when i'm not thinking about my anxiety i'm perfectly fine. Someone help me :(

I am so sorry you have to suffer from this, you are so young hun. I suffer from the same symtoms and then some. I can't really give good advice because I am having a hard time myself with the same thing. But I do know you should talk again with your mother, get counsling, maybe at school there is a counsler? They can get you going on medications to help you. Just keep your head up and hang in there, I know how hard it gets, but remember you aren't alone, and if ever need to talk we are here!!! ;)

I'm sorry you are feeling so bad at such a young age. My first bout of anxiety started about 17 years old. I was afraid to leave house. Constant headaches . I was convinced I had a brain tumor. Please talk to a counselor or your family doctor. A short course of medicine may help you or verbalizing your anxiety to someone you trust can help also. I used anti- anxiety meds on/off for short periods of time in the last 20 years. Sometimes they are necessary to get through the rought times.
Good Luck. Hope you feel better.
