I need help...

Taylor511040 January 18th, 2023

I feel like I am nervous all the time, regardless on what I try to do to stop it... Peer relationships at school and at home have been stressing me out and so have my schoolwork and chores. I have also have things happen to my family. My mom lost her job, my grandma is going to pass away, etc... I'm even just nervous trying to tell this to you right now, it's a little hard to breathe.

@empatheticpie It turns out I already took the test apparently. I mean, I do remember taking it. But it was like... 3AM in the morning when I did it because I couldn't sleep.

@Taylor51104 Hi Taylor. You are not alone and trust me you will not always feel this way. I just went through it again and it always passes. Sometimes with help of medication. Have you thought about talking to a therapist/counselor/psychologist? I just starting seeing one again for the first time in 7 years and it helps. I’m reading some anxiety book: 10 best-ever anxiety management techniques and Feeling Good. What about exercise? I walk everyday and it really does help. I used to think it was BS but not now

@CDK1972 I have tried to see a therapist but my parents don't really seem to care at all. And yes I do take a walk almost everyday but I still am super stressed.

@Taylor51104 Hi Taylor. I would recommend the top 10 anxiety techniques book I’m reading that I mentioned in my lady thread. What about maybe some meds to take the edge off or awhile?

Hi Taylor,

Your post is very honest and brave. It sounds like you’re saying you are truly overwhelmed with anxiety due to stressful situations that impact you and others. Sometimes even just talking about it helps.

Hi Taylor,
































































You mentioned it's a little hard to breathe. Have you looked up panic attacks? It took me years to realize that's what I was experiencing bc I had always lived my life with anxiety as my response. I'm new here, but believe I saw a thread on panic attacks and ways to deal with them that might be helpful to you if you can't access therapy right now. It's very difficult when others in your life don't or won't recognize how debilitating this is. What coping mechanisms have you tried? Hang in there.

@kifaru Do you think I could talk to you maybe at sometimes? I could really use the comfort... And no, I don't think I could be having a panic attack. I'm usually nervous all the time and my nervousness can spike up a little bit, making it hard to breathe a little.
