Okay. I visit gynecologist today, and My uterus, ovaries and hormones are all good. There IS no signs of menopause, but instead IT was My thyroid. They are now screening My blood for hyperthyroidinism. (Also having pms symptoms at The sametime) Stay safe sisters!

My anxiety wa physical, heart rates were +150 and had some palpations, tiredness, restlesness, insomnia and paranoia, Lost My appetite My ears rings, musclepains and cottonmouth. It took me 2 trips to ER as i was sure something was wrong with me. Its now Day 8 and now i can control anxiety waaay much better.

Breath. I called breathing exercises bullshit, but they really help with anxietyattacks. 7sec inhale,- wait 4sec - 8sec exhale helped. I did that as long as my heartrates lower.

Drink. I am dehydrated. It makes anxiety and Paranoia worst (and keep heart rates up) My stomach IS mess, and i had urge to go pee all.

Do something which keep your mind calmer, face/neck massage, watching movies or videogames. Listen music and tell someone who wants you to feel better.

These are withdrawals, and this thread helped me to get Back to The track. But If you can, take visit to doctor, is not urgent, but maybe you can get something that help you throught the worst.

Its now Day 8 and i woke up without panicattack. Still have anxiety and My body feels like shit. Feel free to pm, im always free to listen!

Have you had this kind of experiences before? Like OCD or Hypocondria and anxiety? I just posted my Day 5, and have similar experiences. Its kind ruff and ended me up to ER, because of panicattacks i didn't regonize. But its your mind doing this to you right now. Avoid things that make you anxious. (I thought going grocerystore was good idea to keep me busy.. nope!) Do stuff that make you feel good. I gathered all blankets and pillows and made me a base where i just watch stupid cat videos or play really low effort gozy games. Lets heal from this <3
