Feeling anxiety again, it's stupid how much I let it dictate what I do or how I feel

You should be okay.

Is it GAD or something specific that you're anxious about?

I don't have GAD but I can get so anxious sometimes without any apparent reason, and it's really bad am trembling like a jelly, hard to breathe, hands sweating, heart beating so fast, dizzy, that's all i can describe for now

I would think you'd be fine with that. I'm sorry you are so anxious.

with everyone posting their ages it reminded me of the thread some time ago where we listed a number of things about ourselves. someone should resurrect it if they can remember when it was. it'd be good to learn about all the new people we have here now.

Okay.

Breathe in for 5 seconds, hold it for 5 seconds, breathe out for 5 seconds through partially-closed lips (like blowing out a candle). Keep doing that.

Say to yourself "Let go."

I hope this helps.
Thanks for this!

Hi guys I haven't been feeling great so haven't been around. Stuck between worlds atm. Had my depot yesterday so the world is holding its breath waiting for the plunge.
I need to build a life worth being in so my mind doesn't escape to my other reality. I don't believe medication is enough.
I'm going to organise my life. Maybe looking for a job isn't right for me right now as that's what sent me over the edge, but I need to do something. Before this came over me again I would spend as much time asleep as possible to avoid having nothing to do. That's not healthy. I need to fill my time with things to do.
Combat against lack of motivation and social withdrawal.
I'm just in my own world. I need to bridge the gap between me and reality. Fully commit to this world. Then my mind won't need to flee back to the other dimension.

I'm very anxious too, and worrying about everything. I'm scared. I have to go out for an appointment at 1:00 which is so hard to time without a car. It's freezing rain here today and I'm so scared.

I don't think it's wrong...some mom's never change from their PJs so they can do the same....

Took two xanax last night (.5mg in total) and DING I was wide awake at about 3am when it wore off. Does anyone else have that problem? It had to have been the xanax wearing off as lately I've been sleeping through the night and that's the only thing that changed.
