Hi Sherry,

I agree with lostone, the stuff you describe is just like my anxiety attacks, spot on.

It is quite correct to say that it is 'all anxiety'. We go to doctors, have all sorts of checks, but in the end it's anxiety that is upsetting us. The odd thing is that often people with severe physical illnesses don't feel as bad as we do; they can be quite relaxed and cheerful!

Over time, I have got used to anxiety, and can live a reasonable life, albeit a quiet one. I have read that anxiety disorders can go away, or sometimes they just lurk. if we can push through it, there is a life to be lived, and it can be quite a good one

This is a good place to share; hope you stick around.

Cheers, M
