more of a concern.. less of a question. please read :)
new to the site... experience anxiety and depression often... also diagnosed ADHD *** well so I am not sure if they are related? ... anyways.. I have just been getting this odd feeling lately that I am just going to die.. I am not suicidal in ANY form but It's constantly in the back of my head.. does this happen to any else?
Yep, we all have that. My theory is that when we release to many catecholamine without an obvious threat our minds try to find something wrong, or anything that could cause that response, hence the irrational thinking and vague symtpoms.
The going to die business might well be a panic attack. Have you had your adrenals checked?
Anxiety is most certainly related to ADHD. If you were diagnosed with ADHD then it is no surprise that you are noticing symptoms of a similar nature-- nervousness, mood swings, compulsiveness, obsessiveness, etc.
I want to clarify that ADHD cannot technically be "diagnosed" because it is not an illness or medical issue any more than anxiety is. Both are better defined as tendencies or habits in attempt to control things that you feel you cannot.
ADHD can most certainly be controlled or "let go" without medication. It is just a matter of defining the triggers of your anxiety and learning strategies to cope.
If you need any tips for this, send me a message and I'd be glad to share!
