Anyone have this?

Hey, I'm 18 and I think this is connected to Anxiety but everything feels so Dreamy and I feel Weird ALL THE TIME for the last 3 weeks. I have lost my appetite and I have been having constant racing thoughts. I seem to make any little thing be a big threatening problem. I've went to the ER twice cause I'm just NOT MYSELF. I'm just constantly scared and it's sometimes hard to sleep because of Too many thoughts at night even sometimes weird irrelevant thoughts? And sometimes I just get sad about it and cry. If anyone knows something about this please let me know and if anyone knows how to get rid of it let me know. Thank you

Yes, unfortunately I suffered for too many years w/ the same thing before I received treatment for anxiety.  From my experience, going to the ER accomplishes nothing regarding treatment for anxiety, depression, or panic attacks, imo.

Do yourself a huge favor, go see a doctor as soon as you can, describe your experiences, and ask for help. The process is relatively simple, and you will probably be surprised at how much of a relief it is to be able to speak w/ a doctor (mental health professional). Due to my own fear and ignorance about anxiety, I put off seeking help for so long because I was afraid of being judged (one of my many reasons for not going sooner). I've tried both medication and therapy; they can make a positive difference in your life, but it isn't instantaneous. It takes a little time and definitely some personal work to get on track, but it is certainly worth the effort.  When it comes to medication and therapy, everyone is a little different ~ over time you'll figure out what works best for you...

So, the good news is: there is help out there  :)  Make an appointment to speak with a doctor soon.
Good Luck
