HELLO, I AM NEW TO THE FORUM, HOWEVER I HAVE BEEN READING FOR ABOUT A MONTH. I WANTED TO SEE IF THIS WAS THE RIGHT PLACE FOR ME. I WILL TELL YOU A LITTLE ABOUT MY LIFE SO FAR. I HAVE HAD ANXIETY ALL OF MY LIFE. I HAVE HAD NO ILLNESS AND YET HAVE HAD NUMEROUS ILLNESSES.IF YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN.IT STARTED WHEN I WAS 9 AND NOW I AM 33 IN COUSELING, AND CANNOT TAKE ANY DRUGS AS THE SYMTOMS ARE WORSE. i HAD HAD TROUBLE BREATHING OR CHEST HEAVINESS FOR 1 YR. I AM TRYING A WORKBOOK FROM MY COUNSELOR CALLEDMASTERY OF YOUR ANXIETY AND WORRY. I AM ONLY ON CHAPTER 2. I AM EXTREMELY AFRAID TO DIE. HAVE NO IDEA WHY. I CAN SAY ALL DAY LONG ENJOY WHAT YOU HAVE LIVE EVERY DAY AS IF IT YOUR LAST, HOWEVER I DO LIVE THAT WAY, IT'S JUST IN THE NEGATIVE LIGHT IN STEAD OF THE POSITIVE. I AM GLAD TO SEE A FORUM THAT CAN HELP PEOPLE FEEL COMFORTABLE TO SAY EXACTLY HOW THEY FEEL. I FEEL LIKE I KNOW SOME OF YOU SO WELL ALREADY. AND FOR THE FUNNY THAT SUZIQ STATED HOW HILARIOUS. I OFTEN FEEL LIKE WHAT IF THAT HAPPENED. WHEN WE DID GET THERE NO ONE WOULD TALK BECAUSE WE WERE TO NERVOUS THAT WE WOULD FREAK OUT, OR STAY SOMETHING STUPID.THERE IS SO MUCH TO SAY SO LITTLE SPACE THANKS FOR LISTENING.

I am also new to the forum.I just started having anxiety attacks last month.The last couple months has been crazy stress, a miscarrage of twins a death of mother and a sucide out side my work place in the parking lot.The Dr. says it was the sucide that pushed me over the edge.I felt like I was going insaine.I got to the point where I would not leave my home,because I thought if I did I would have a panick attack.I have done some research on it and cognitive therapy helps, even just the stuff I have looked up on the net. Also the vitimin B complex has also really helped.I am now suposto start counseling.I find that paositve thinking (brain washing myself) that everything is going to be O.K really helped.I aslo have to learn how to re-program my brain to get all the nasty thoughts out that are in my unconcious mind some I did'nt even know where there.Try the cognitive therapy I have only been doing it for about a week and an able to pick my son up from school and go out.Hope soon I will be well enough to go back to work. Try to think positive and good luck its mind over matter.
