Just not getting better.

For two weeks now I have had intense anxiety. I mean I can't eat and when I think about food I gag. When I try to eat something I gag while eating it. I try to nap and I wake up every 5 minutes with my heart beating out of my chest. Everything around me doesn't seem real. My mind won't stop racing with what if's and such. I've been crying and just a damn mess. Every muscle hurts from being so tense and not being able to get out of bed for almost 2 weeks. Why am I feeling so much anxiety and adrenaline? It cant be normal. I swear its a brain tumor or something. I just don't understand because sometimes this happens and I recover in a week and its over. This time I keep thinking it's not anxiety and im going crazy and going to lose my mind. I barely talk to anyone I live with as im so damn anxious. I'm scared to go to the doctor or leave my house. I've barely eating anything in the past week but maybe a sandwich and some apple sauce once a day. My throat always feels like its closing. I can't seem to convince myself that this is just anxiety but it feels like its not and it's going to last forever until I go crazy. Ugh. I HATE this.

Sounds exactly like me 5 years ago - couldn't eat  - scared of everything - scared of the sun going down, could not leave the house - total anxiety and paranoia.  It started right after i had 3 mercury fillings removed from my mouth, got tingling electrical shocks in my neck, severe lethargy - then doc gave me 3 rounds of antibiotics - then the nightmare started - like awake in a nightmare - lasted for years - praying to God all the time to heal me -  i finally found a book that explained everything - Medical Medium by Anthony William.  I had Epstein Barr and Shingles viruses dormant in my organs but the heavy metals and antibiotics are a favored food of these viruses.  Stage 4 of Epstein Barr is anxiety through the roof, dizziness, fatigue, tinnitus, fibromyalgia, muscle pain, joint pain, tingling, numbness, eye floaters, insomnia, esophageal spasms (throat closing), chest pain and tightness, asthma caused by EBV inflaming the vagus nerve.  Heart palpitations, result from build up of EBV poisonous corpses inn the mitral valve.  You can recover by taking a few steps.  1. Heavy metal detox smoothie (cilantro, wild blueberries, banana, spirulina, barley grass powder, dulse flakes)  Just get what you can.  2. do not eat foods the feed viruses: eggs, dairy, mercury laden fish.  3. Eat super foods papaya, mango, sweet potato, wild blueberries, spinach, celery juice, parsley, cilantro, organic apples and pears, potatoes.  4. Eat very little meat - the liver is already clogged and battled the virus - and any type of meat fat bogs it down even more.  Get the book and it will explain everything.

You do know of course that just because you think this is what you had doesn't mean the person posting has this, it's highly unlikely the poster or anyone else on here does have this, and you're just adding anxiety.  It's enough to tell the person to seek professional help, but we really can't diagnose over the internet nor can you diagnose yourself by reading a book that pretends to explain everything.  I'm glad it helped you, but you're the only you.  The poster is the only her.  And potatoes a super food?  This is a food nobody should eat very often.  There are tons of very healthy foods out there.  Some that you mention can be healthy or quite unhealthy, such as dulse -- if harvested in polluted places, which most of it is, it's quite deadly.  If harvested in clean places, it's quite beneficial.  To the poster:  don't worry, it's highly unlikely this is something else to add to your list.  But do seek help.

If you don't get help you'll never know, will you?  Get help.  Find out if something's physically wrong, then get into therapy.  The longer you wait the worse it will get -- avoidance feeds on itself.  I know this is easy to say, and I'm no better at doing it than anyone else, but if you stay where you are you will stay where you are.

I have no appetite due to awful anxiety and probably have eaten a sandwich and some apple sauce a day for about 4 days or more. I'm just not hungry. When my anxiety is bad I can try to eat and gag. I just force it. I'm afraid i'm going to die from not eating. All I can think about it food and how i'm not hungry and there's something wrong with me. I know it's my anxiety but I just can't bring myself to eat. WIll my body shut down? I don't need another thing to worry about and this food thing is number one. I'll see food on tv and picture myself eating it and feel gaggy. It's really bad during an panic attack. My anxiety has been awful for 2 weeks now and my eating habits were usually a meal and a snack per day but now I struggle to eat and I only eat bland foods because i'm afraid that if I eat something heavy (even though im not hungry for it) i''l have a loose stool as that happens when I eat something light for a day or two and I associate loose stools with vomiting which is my greatest fear. Will I ever be hungry again? Is not eating making my anxiety and panic attacks worse? God my life is all anxiety and worrying. I literally can think about like a burger and then worry that im not hungry abouut it or it will make me go to the bathroom. I swear I should be locked up for worrying about basic human functions? How long can my body do this? I'm scared and under alot of stress.
