You need a boot in the butt. A few years ago I remember doing CPR on a 28 year female who died from crystal meth. Life is very precious and it is a gift. She won't have any tomorrows. The top, of her head was sawed off for an autopsy with a v-cut on each side and she was eviscerated. Then they weighed her organs. She is rotting in a grave today. Just another day in an ER. Do you want this to be you? Visit a medical Examiner's office and ask them to let you watch to see your end if you don't straighten out. The person who introduced to to crystal meth deserves a fate I can't put into words on this board. You need to find faith in yourself and faith in the life force. You have been entrusted with a vessel for the most precious of human commodities - the human soul. You have value as a person and value as a life form. You have the work of the life-force to do. Go on "Google" and look of "Marcus Aurelius" and "Meditations". Read it. Good luck.
Hi, I am a lot like you. I'm a young female and I have a lot of anxiety about my health. It started out as being anxiety over heart problems, like is my pulse too low or high, is my heart skipping beats, etc. It has gone from that to worrying over whether my blood pressure is too low (I have low BP too) and if I will collapse and die. I now am having the dizziness/lightheadedness thing, too. To make it worse, I am 7 months pregnant and can't figure out if it's just pregnancy symptoms or anxiety. I have had a lifelong problem with anxiety and panic attacks. I would go to therapy and get medication if I were you - therapy has really helped me though I'm not 100% better. I hope you feel better soon and hang in there!
THANKS, I DO NEED TO CALM DOWN. WELL I WENT TO THE DOCTOR TODAY BECAUSE I HAD A PAP LAST WEEK AND HE TOLD ME THAT MY RED BLOOD COUNT IS 3.98. SLIGHTLY LOW. BUT MY HGB IS 12.7 IM TRYING NOT TO LOOK INTO IT. WELL LL JUST TAKE IT ONE DAY AT A TIME.
I would start writing a journal. Try not to worry so much - I know it is hard not to obsess about stuff but that is what you are doing. You should try to get some counseling. Myabe prozac is not teh right drug for you. I tried it and it made me lightheaded.
Good luck
OH YEAH, I HAVE HAD COUNSELING BUT I STOPPED GOING. I THINK IM GOING TO GO BACK AND REALLY MAKE AN EFFORT TO STOP THINKING SO NEGATIVELY.
calm down---it kind of sounds as though you stress an worry about a lot of things----axiety does play a huge rolr in that also some depression could be a result of all of this----take your symptoms one at a time and see where they lead you----look at the net for symptoms of axiety, depression, stress, etc. Stress can do strange things to you that you do not even realize it is doing----I know first hand-----so take a deep breath, calm down and see a doctor and have your symptoms out and ready to get your answers!
I think you need to go back for cognitive therapy, your anxiety is really acting up. consider medication also for your anxiety.
