Try to take one day at a time. Just by reading your post you sound like your stressing. You have alot going on. My anxiety does that to yestirday I was a wreck and today Im ok so far but it's morning. Im stressing cause Im moving but I feel good cause my sister might take my puppie if she doesn't then I have to figure out something. I don't like taking medication either for anxiety I try to fight it on my own but sometims I want to take it cause Im sick of living with anxiety. I really want a better life like we all do. Everything will work out for you. I hope your days will get better. If I could I would start my life all over again and start from the beginning.

I have found that our biggest problem is that we beat ourselves up when we have bad days and then start worrying about it and ask that same question over and over, "WHY???" What to do? Just accept it, don't question it, and let it be....we know what it is, and we will ride it out.....try doing this, I find that when you let "it" be your friend, it subsides.....

I too have anxiety/pvc's. And I ALSO have 2 boys!!!! It's them!!!!!! No... just kidding. It's probably just the stress we go through everyday!!!! I mean, I worry alot!!! And, I had a horrible lifestyle growing up. Well, for instance... my children's husband used to beat me and verbally abuse me for 6 years. I was always sad and or mad, and kept it all inside, because I was never really allowed to voice my opinion. After I got the courage to leave him...2 boys later... I started having the anxiety. Feeling hot, not being able to breathe, anxious, etc. Then I developed mild pvc's. Since then (about 2 years ago) it has only gotten worse. The pvc's have become overwhelming. I have 10's of thousands a day, and EVERYDAY!!! I don't really have the anxiety that bad anymore, because I have learned how to overcome it for the most part. Taking a walk, a warm bath, listening to music... or even calling my mother who has it too seems to always help to bring me back to "normal". However...It is always easier said than done. Just try and hang in there, and know that you are not alone. Oh.... eating lightly, and not much carbs, and caffeine helps too. Try to avoid breads, pastas, caffeine. Also... someone gave me the idea to take a vitamin every day. Ya know what... remember those Flinstones vitamins we used to take as kids? Try em. They're fun and taste good. Good Luck, and keep in touch! ;)

Mine are pvc's, and I have only been taking half of a quarter of xanax which helps me a little bit. But, it's back in an hour or so. If I take a quarter, then it makes me feel too tired, and I have actually even passed out at my desk. lol! Does the ativan help with your pvc's?

I am always having flushes, it is a sure sign out Anxiety. Sometimes it feels like someone has poured a hot cup of water on my face. Just keep telling yourself its anxiety and eventually it`ll go away.
