feeling constantly panicicy, even when there is nothing to be panicay about/over

[Anonymous]

Over the last few days, I have felt a constant panic, and it is over things that I know I need not panic about. It is over things that I know will be fine, but I can not shake this constant feeling, mostly phyical, of total panic……

Does anyone else get this, have these??

Used to be like that almost everyday, not so much now. If I sleep, eat protein, take my antidepressant all of that helps. Also selff talk, “yes that is my worst fear, and that is NOT going to happen” can help. I call it my free floating anxiety..cause it is just there. I have used distractions to make them stop, and that may or maynot help…but it is the eating, and meds that have helped the most recently. If I take my Ritalin SR that has stopped the panic too…which I find odd, but reassuring…anything to make the self doubt shut off…you know??

The trick for me was to try something, and then remember what I did, and what happened…usually it came as I thought back about my day..comes in small steps..try something..did it work? Try it again, try something else…I have used a journal too, and that is a good tool…

Hope that gives you something to go on for now…A

Thanks, the two things that I know that help me, even temporary, is getting really into gaming, and watching TV… It helps me to calm down, but it is not really productive….

I am going to make a mental effort to keep track of what works. My only hurdle is, remembering it and or the day…..

I take everyday, and just make it through that day. I really do think that it is a physiological imbalance, or something like that.

Thanks for the help, and I am going to go eat something.
