Does anyone else have an anxiety disorder?

[Anonymous]

I thought mines was much better but I guess I was wrong. Some days I just panic for no reason or I feel attacked when I'm not. Like I thought my mom was trying to verbally attack me and I literally went off. I had a panic attack and literally had to work out to calm down. Has anyone recovered fully from anxiety?

I have one, but in the past three years it has gotten so much better. I still take medication for it, but I haven't had a panic attack again. Mine mainly started in 6th grade when I was yelled at by a teacher (lame, I know) and I passed out. Then I started to fear the panic attack itself, and would get anxiety whenever I felt too warm or light headed since I associated that with a panic attack. The medication has helped a bit, but what I mainly did was teach myself deep breathing exercises to calm down. I still today can get very anxious, but I just remind myself that I'm fine and to breath. A lot of people have anxiety, don't let it control your life.

I can't wait to see a doctor. It's scary cause it worsens around period time and there's nothing I can do. Like right now I feel like crying, and I feel scared. It feels good to know your not alone.

I saw a doctor who prescribed with the meds, but afterwards I saw a therapist once or twice who taught me breathing exercises and how to cope. I highly recommend this! Trust me, I cried a lot and was terrified. I was scared to leave the house because I didn't want to randomly have a panic attack. It will get better :)

I suffer from anxiety/panic disorder and I'll tell you after ten years of medication its got worse and I have weaned myself off them and use meditation and self control technics now. It helped me to learn when I was feeling symptoms come on. Reaching out for help and understanding is the first step you need to take to get control of yourself again.
Everyone's different so I'd look up all the various reasons we get anxiety and how to dealbqith it naturally. Working out always helps. :) good luck.

I've not been diagnosed but I think I have a mild case of social anxiety.
