ive been having anxiety for the past 7 years and im only 22 years old its taking over my life when i say that i mean its bad i live on oahu which is a small island i live on the west side and i have anxiety of driving out of here!!! which is where everything is malls,clubs,nice restraunts everything, i always pay attention to my breathing and it ends up making me anxious before i go somewhere i check myself like how is my breathing if i cant take a nice deep breath anxiety starts ill try again and from there my anxiety worsens its like a natural thing my body does already i breath funny and its hard to stop my chest end up tight im all anxcious
i cant concentrate it worser than it sounds, the only way i calm myself is distract myself by doing somthing which makes me not focous on my breathing but takes a while. but it happens over and over everyday.i like to be near a hospital i feal safe it also calms me down sometimes i sit in my car in front of the ER until i feel better....weird i know...im currently on celexa ive tried zoloft,paxil,lexapro nothing helps i actually regret going on the meds cause i cant get off i tried to but withdraws are major dizzzy ...
im ashamed if my problem dont really say anything to people i dont go out with friends because i feal like what if i get my anxiety so shame.. i just wish it will go away
