Anxiety Forum

[raychel]

Hey, I am new to this site and just trying to find people to relate to. I suffered really bad anxiety that started after some of my family members passed away. It has been two years that I have been batteling this anxiety and a few months ago I thought I finally had it beat. Then all of a sudden it's back and I feel incapable of functioning. I guess I am just trying to get it out. Everyone around me is really worn out from dealing with my constant panic and always worrying. I just don't know why it's back and I am really stressed out. I do have a lot going on but i am so scared something bad is going to happen to me. I also am supposed to be going on vacation in 2 weeks and i am terrified to fly and be out of my element but I think in the long run it may help to conquer the fear. Maybe that is triggering me. sorry to unload so much. Can anyone relate??

I totally can relate (as probably everyone else here), but the thing to remember is to never give up. I am constantly afraid of panicking in different situations, but to fix that is that I throw myself head first into the situation (and I dont get an attack) because you are only fearing fear itself. Just don't let one bad incident control your life. You sound like a strong person and I know you will pull through just fine...just believe in yourself.

Also, try an exercise activity like yoga because it helps you cleanse your mind and your body.

Thank you. Yoga might not be a bad idea. For some reason though i seem to start to panic when I try to exercise.
