Hi there everyone, this is Sam. I recently registered on this site and i thought that i would start to open up to all of you about my health issues that are troubling me.

So a bit about myself, i am male, from England and am in my 20's and have started to have a issue for about one year.

I hope some people can read this and advise me what problems i have and solutions to how i could gently stop them

I started feeling extremely panicky and anxious about a year ago. This happened out of the blue and i cannot see a reason why my body started acting this way. There has been no negative life events that i feel triggered my anxiety.

I am unsure whether i have either an anxiety disorder or panic disorder mixed with depression. I would describe it as 70% anxiety and 30% low mood depression.

In terms of my symptoms i do have several:

1) Physical symptoms:

Trembling
Dry mouth
Talking Fast
Hyperalert
Shallow breathing
Fast Heartbeat

Oversleeping
Overeating
Not very Social because of anxiety

2) Mental symptoms -
Thinking rapidly
Feeling stressed continuously
Sometimes can concentrate on a singly activity and distracted

Low mood
No energy mentally even after sleep
Having low ambition due to low mood and fear

So then these are my symptoms i have had for the last year. I have tried solving them myself but they seem to have got worse over the last year.

I am unsure what to do as they do not seem to go away and seem to come up no matter if i am inside the house, outside shopping etc, whether i am alone or with people.

There seems to be a permanent anxious state as soon as i wake up but this gets increased if i go outside

What advice can people here give me to find the root of the problem as i am having trouble dealing with this issue of mine.

I hope you can help me start of on this journey of self improvement so i can live a normal life and do the things that normal people do.

I look forward to your responses and will answer as honestly as i can to any questions you may have about my feelings.

Thanks
Sam
