Hello everyone,

Lately my anxiety has entered something new for me. I have constant fears of passing out and dying. I wake up in the middle of the night thinking about going to the hospital. It seems as if these feelings are with me nonstop lately. From the minute I wake up to the minute I go to bed. I don't even want to be left alone for the fear of needing help. I am only 32 years old and I feel so hopeless. I feel as if I am in a dream and can't control my thoughts and my physical pain. Anyone have any advice. I am scared of taking meRAB as I have in the past and even felt worse. Any advice I would REALLY appreciate.
 
hey, you are not alone. those are my two biggest fears as well.i also tried meRAB. they made me even worse.now i dont go anywhere but strait to work and back. when did this all start for you? did anything that you are aware of trigger it?
 
That does help knowing i am not alone. I haven't even been able to go to work lately as well. I really feel i can't be left alone. I appreciate hearing your story as well. How are you now. I hope things are getting better for you. It is a hard struggle and I hope one day I can return to 'normal'. You as well! Take c=good care of yourself, and everyone else is well...
 
i feel the same way sometimes. i get terrified when my hubby goes to work and im alone. I had to take time off of work too. have you ever tried a benzo like xanax,ativan, etc...? They do help you to relax and you dont have to take them long term. I suffered terribly until i found out about xanax. sometimes i would just take a small piece enough to calm me down because they can make you sleepy. well i hope you feel better soon!!!
 
well im still anxious quite a bit of the time.i just avoid the situations that bring on anxiety, however sometimes just sittin at home doin nothing brings it on.when im anxious i move around and find things to distract me(which is typically cleaning). i really hope to be back to normal. i was the one that loved hitting up the mall of america and being in fashion shows.now is a different story. one big thing is understanding what is going on inside your body when you are anxious.how a simple thought can produce all these symptoms is just amazing.
