WHAT IS THIS????!!!!

[franceslee]

Ok I've been told I've got anxiety but it's hard for me to accept!  For the past five days I just haven't felt like myself.  I've been nauseated, my lower eyelid twitches,I get dizzish feelings, my face will get flushed for no apparent reason.  Could this all be due to my anxiety??!!  I went to the doctor an she seems to think its just allergies but it's tough for me to except.   Thanks for any help!!  And advice!!

Yes Ive had blood work done a few different times but nothing more.  I'm not on any new mess just the same two that I have been on.  I go to counseling for my anxiety, I'm petrified of medications.....

I am in counseling.  But I'm not able to meet but like every two weeks!  I'm nervous to try medication for anxiety but if I get too hype up I will take benadryl, but that's rare!!  I just hate that I always feel like something is wrong, some days are better than others....

I would like to piggyback on what nursegirl asked.  I ask the same question to many people here in this forum.  Are you able to address and confront your anxiety?  There are many avenues one can take but the most helpful steps I have taken is through counseling.  Both group and individual has helped me tremendously in learning about it and confronting it.

I always have those feelings, you just learn that it's normal and once you calm yourself down it will slowly go away, then even when it comes back it won't be as severe or it may be. You never know bur you DON'T have a serious medical problem, If you did you would know trust me, this is all worry :)

my allergies do that and lack of sleep.

HI again!

It COULD be anxiety!  From what I recall, you've had a thorough medical work up recently, right?  Any new meds?  Your sugars have been decent, so that's not the culprit.  Anything else going on?

What have you been doing to address the anxiety?
