hi ive read up on all the anxiety symptoms which i have quite a few but does anyone feel sick on a daily basis, i cant put a exact description on this feeling. ive had hundreds of test it seems, dr's say im fine? ive tried all sorts of meds, antianxiety, ad's ect...i always feel like im in a fog, i seem to always have this overwhelmed mental feeling like a horrible intense worry feeling if that makes sense? its worst at work, ive been out for a week. i cant seem to shake it. my thearpist is not much help, i exercise 3 times a week, eat ok, sleep is so so, i seem to dream alot, "every night"not nitemares but just wacky senseless dreams that wake me at times but i return to sleep. i hate feeling like this with no answers. i started back on lexapro/klonopin again. i feel like at times its a loosing battle but i try to keep my head up with hopes of feeling better. my thearpist thinks its my job? ive asked to be fired so i can draw some benifets, its so hard to work being soo tired and feeling so bad, boss says just get well!! he thinks depression and anxiety can be cured overnite with a pill ect.... i wish!! we have very little mental professionals in our area, i see a state provided one, like i said there not much help. there are better ones in the next town but my ins doesnt cover them, all prices are the same from $375-400 per visit" thats seeing the dr as well as the thearpist" there charges are seperate. it sucks

yup.. i fee like im dying everyday.. ive been out of work and been bed ridden for over a year now.. i wish i could help , but i cant even help myself... pray to god and ask for help.. do things u enjoy and be around people u love.. hope u feel better... take care...

yes. and for me it use to be just heart palps, chest pains, but lately its been feeling lightheaded, spaced out, waves of panic and hot/cold flashes ALL day and all night before i fall asleep.. do you get this? i feel nauseous and even have the chills/ i mean, it really feels like i'm dying. i have had T"ONS of tests too, dr. says i'm perfect.. i have a great relationship with my doc, she knows how i feel. i guess the meds arent working. i'm on celexa 20mg. i hate this, i just want the feelings to go away.. does this sound like anything you deal with? i'm terrified of passing out.. Amanda

me to...that is my biggest fear
i get lightheaded all the time
i got checked for anemia...im fine and my thyroid is fine
only thing really left is my blood sugar...
but im thinking its anxiety...
right do you feel spacy sometimes...like not confused but just i dont know...its hard to be in the moment your in at times

i feel the same, waves of panic for no reason, the spacey feeling is the hardest. no matter what i do i cant get my mind clear from my problems, i know thats part of my problem "excessive worry" but there are days few and far between i wake up and feel normal and do my best to enjoy it, whats weird about those days its like my problem never existed but its short lived. maybe i put myself in these modes of thought somehow. most of the time i wake up and tell if its going to be a good day or a bad day, dont ask how i know? i wasnt always like this not for 28 years anyway, like paranoid girl stated with the palps, mine began with that, then i awakened one morning 5 years ago getting ready for work and i thought i was having a heart attack, i was shaking, weak , short of breath , tingly all over. went to the ER my first panic attack! that was the start of my cycle. i have not felt right since, although i no longer have those episodes, i face much more now depression/anxiety. im putting a strain on my wife and little girl. i feel so bad i cant be the father or husband they soo much deserve to have, all i do is complain about me! it really sucks to the fullest. i do try to get involved with them but its like im not really there,almost like im pretending to show interest because im not me, the one who at one time was always on the go, happy, loving, enjoyed work and most of all life in general, ive made a complete 180 of who i was 5 years ago

feeling spacy is probably derealisation which is common from anxiety, I had it for years
strange dreams are common from antidepressants and some other meds, just lie back and enjoy them

worry can be dealt with separately, several good self help books on overcoming worry are available, just follow their advice

whatever relaxes the body also relaxes the mind, try massage, hot tubs jacuzzis

exercise is good but needs to be done in a relaxed way with no excess muscle tension
you are lucky your boss understands, many dont :eek:
