Anxiety Disorders Support Group

Have to see new Doctor to day been up all night feel very sick been trying to get out of this all morning. I am shaking sick to my stomach and crying. Ive tried breathing and relaxtion tape I need help. I keep talking to myself to get out of it. I am so scared.

I really hope things get better for you. It's good to realize you need help though! Sometimes reaching out for help is the best thing you can do...if things get so bad that they're completely overwhelming. If you have a friend or family member that you can at least share with how bad you're feeling...that sometimes helps a little too.

I've been there and I know how scary it is. Don't isolate yourself too much. Call the dr as your first step and they may be able to recommend a therapist or someone to talk to. Hang in there, hon. I know how scary it can be.

Hi Charlie.

First - welcome to the anxiety group....I am so confused whether I have even welcomed you before.

Second, you hang in there. ....... We will help you over this.......

....sit down and take a nice deep breath.

....now think of something beautiful.

....now start to breathe regularly.....count each part of your breath first -

........in , 1 2 3 4 5 6

........ Hold your breath for 1 2 3 4 5 6

........out, 1 2 3 4 5 6

And repeat that slow breath .......repeat for 10 breaths at a time....

If you still feel anxious ......repeat breathing again.....

I you have any meds available .....take one pill to help you to deal with this.

If no meds, call your family doctor and ask for something for anxiety and depression.

Hugs, Raoul

Hi Charlie

It might be a good thing for the Dr. to actually see you at your worst. it get's the point across much faster..

This is your anxiety making you sick!

You will get through this you will be okay.

Good luck at your appt, let us know how it goes.

Thank you so much for your help and support. Went to doctor he is a very good listener. He is willing to work with me. He put me back on my ativan and prozac. I go back to see him in 2 months. This Doctor might be a keeper. LOL Thanks it means alot to me.
