Absolutely nothing.
I'm arranging an appointment with the doctor today for some therapy and meds though.
Are you on any medications for anxiety? Like paxil, zoloft ect?
If you are on any Meds or any herbal supplement they can also have side effects ,if you are check it out or get them changed.
Drinking will make you feel worse but sometimes that is what happens it momentarily makes you feel better but in fact is making it worse, I think you now have to seek help and go online for people in you area that have Battled some thing similar, sometimes you just cant go it alone.As you said that the funny thing was you have been busy thinking of something else and felt better in one area Tells you keeping your little Brain cells busy ,helps, try not to obsess about minor details, when you find yourself going there ,tell yourself "Stop" and give yourself some positive self talk.Accept you feel like that today but that it will pass and go along with it.
Anxiety can produce unusual symptoms, so can other health problems like hypoglycemia and diabetes, which made me think of that when you said your eye was blurry, but also can be caused from other psychological issues, if I were you I would go to your doctor explain this get a work up done, like some blood work and ask to be referred to a psychiatrist and then go from there. All of your symptoms could be related to anxiety or you could have a few things going on here its hard to say right now. But either way you need to get it worked on cause its hard to live like that. :D Goodluck
Dope (really EXOTIC dope)....Booze....Anxiety....Panic.
Connect the dots.
Are you just curious about others who have what you have? Or do want to actually put a stop to the problems?
If the latter, lose the GP and get to a shrink, and consider what it might be like to let your brain function without the STP you've been putting in the tank. And, yes, it will take time to unscramble THESE eggs.
Good luck.
It's helped significantly. I've went through a severe state of anxiety for the last couple of months with a wealth of symptoms and no treatment. The triage in ER said both anxiety and depression are often caused or intensified by a chemical imbalance in the brain.
I thought my GP was pretty compitent up until things got miles worse. I informed him I knew it would develop to the stage it would get to and all he did was recommend infrequent CBT sessions.
Essentially it's a real relief to know someone actually understands what's happening. I've been petrified it'd develop into psychosis or something a little harder to deal with. I've always been slightly dellusional regarding some beliefs but it's always been under control and it's been nothing serious. Essentially, the panic's blowing everything out of proportion.
The fact that some of these symptoms coincide with my beliefs have kind of made everything go a little off the rails.
The fun thing is alot of the symptoms of anxiety have gone because I've been too busy dealing with this latest episode.
Has anybody else been through anything similar with the unreality? And if so, how hard was it to get through and how did you do it?
I have been drinking excessive amounts of alcohol in recent weeks by the way as a short term relief from anxiety. Just adding that in because it might bear some relevence as to how the symptoms have intensified.
anxiety can cause many weird symtoms. feelings of unreality, like your not real, dizzyness, not being able to think straight and i could go on and on. if your dr. is'nt listening to you then you need to find a different one. it does sound like anxiety but the best thing to do is rule everything else out. if it's not something physical, then you need to see a psyciatrist. anxiety and depression do cause physical problems. your m.d. might not know how to handle this. a psyciatrist can give you therapy and medication if you need it. i hope this helps some. take care. remar
