HI IM a 27 year old male who for the last few days have been different.

It start a couple days ago i had a bad panick attack but I knew i wasnt going to die even if it felt like it.

Well the next day my chest hurt and i had heart burn and thought i was scared still from my attack. another day passes I cough up some blood and got real Anxiety cause my grandpa died 2 years ago and thats how it started. he spit up some blood and 7 days later cancer in his heart and he died. Well i goto the er and everything checked out (x-rays,blood work) I have little high Anxiety and by that i worry to much about things some times. The doc gave me a script for alprazolam(10 pills @0.5mg) well i feel they work alittle but i dont like to take pills. when i take one at night i fall asleep for a couple hours(2-4 hours) then wake up and cant go back to sleep.

Last night i tried not to take a pill cause i had little Anxiety and thought i would be able to fall asleep with out a pill. well I had trouble cause i got Anxiety bad trying to sleep so i then took a pill a couple hours after trying and the pill worked but i slep for about 2 and a half hours and woke up and later puked(not food but i guess acid/spit)

I guess my question is I have lower back pain,back spazms(between the shoulder blades)my hands and feet sweat,my neck feels stiff and warm,also i dont know how describe this but i get a warm sensation from my temples to my neck. is this really Anxiety and Stress? I feel i get my heart burn taken care of and get some good nights sleep along with eatting right ill be fine. I have read the net and scared my self thinking i got Bi-polar-Anxiety

does it take time some times for Anxiety to go down back to normal after being scared to death of having something? i heathy otherwise and dont feel depress but feel this could depress me.

sorry if thats alot to read but any comments would be great.

would it be stress since i can go out? i dont avoid people and i have been able to leave my house and do my chors. Can you get anxity for aweek or two and calm back down?

I think you should go to the Doctors, even if nothing wrong, it will be reassuring.

LEt us know how you get on.

thanxs i will, I go 3:30 today. I honestly am tired from not sleeping good for days. Also i think if i eat ill be ok too. but ill keep you posted

hi again just to let people know what happen with me is i do suffer from little more then norm anxiety but not disable kind. I went to my doc and what we came up with is some Buspan(15mg) I start low and work my way to one at night and morning. plus i set up some consuling(spelled wrong) too. Im sure hope this works but i feel loads better talking to a doc already.

One thing i will say is dont read up into anxiety to much or you may become worse then you were!!

Peace out and i wish everyone good health:)

I'm sure the meds will help. But it does take time. It took me about 2 months to feel a difference in my mood.

You will feel better though

keep us posted :)

my big thing is i cant sleep. I was fine intill i tryed to sleep last night and kept having anxiety attacks. My legs seem to bug me alot and when i try to sleep and i get the warm sensation in my head. not being able to sleep is messing with me and i took a xanax and i dont think it help but for me to fall sleep but for all of hour or two.

Hi Tizzle: I know how you feel about the whole falling asleep thing. Sometimes I get into bed and start wondering if I am going to have a hard time falling asleep! It's like this vicious cycle. I actually cause my self to almost have a panic attack, worrying if I will have one. I usually take xanax at that point.

I'm on .05mgs too. My psych prescribed them for up to 2x/day. If I'm having anxiety during the day and come to the realization that I can't control the anx on my own, I take 1 pill. That usually does the trick for me. But at night for some reason, when I have those falling asleep worries, it takes 2 pills for me to stay asleep for 6-8 hours.

Now, I worked this all out w/my psyciatrist first. I never just take extra or anything without discussing it w/him and getting his OK. But, maybe once you start building up consistant levels of the Buspar, you won't have this problem anymore. It takes several weeks for a lot of meds to start working at their full potential. If your doc hasn't given you an idea of how long for Buspar, just ask. I'm sure he'd be happy to answer any questions you have.

Good luck and know that you are among millions who suffer from anxiety, depression etc. The HealthBoards are a great place to get much needed support and advice. So keep posting! cmpgirl
