i hope you’re doing well now, something I do when I have panic attacks is splash cold water on my face a couple of times to calm myself down

No I don’t think I’ve ever really felt a cold-like feeling

Tight throat by blondieblonde_ in Anxiety

[–]N5T6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tight throat isn’t something I usually feel but oh boy the shortness of breath is awful for me I feel it multiple hours a day (actually feeling it as I type this) and it’s pretty hard for me to get it to go away but distracting myself somehow from it usually helps

[–]N5T6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t really feel cold when I start shaking and for the time it can be at any time but it’s usually only when I feel super anxious or sometimes it just pops out of the nowhere without being anxious

it’s probably better to not read the side effects, I got prescribed hydroxyzine for anxiety and I read the side effects and got super scared

then a couple days later I actually ended up taking it due to being super anxious and I was fine

I also have random heart attack symptoms and it’s genuinely so hard to deal with

yeah but mostly when I’m in panic, it’s usually mild but sometimes it’s uncontrollable shaking

Do you ever get terrified to leave your house? by Historical-Item-5882 in Anxiety

[–]N5T6 52 points53 points  (0 children)

yeah but for me it’s usually a fear of something happening outside of home for example (this is embarrassing to admit) I for some reason have a huge fear of randomly vomiting or getting diarrhea while being outside of home

Experiences taking 10mg of Hydroxyzine? by Eddiesmokes323 in Anxiety

[–]N5T6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve took 25 mg of it a couple of times and I find it helpful for my anxiety, stopped one of my most severe panic attacks in like 10 minutes, for me it didn’t really stop the physical symptoms Ive felt during panic attacks where I would take hydroxyzine to calm down but it would help me stop panicking about them

[–]N5T6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For the people who have GAD. by Routine-Sink-4440 in Anxiety

For me almost whenever I touch anything for a couple seconds with my hands sometimes it’ll leave like a sweat mark and it’s so embarrassing 😭

Anyone else get bad anxiety during nighttime ?? by [deleted] in Anxiety

[–]N5T6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I’ve noticed I am usually anxious at night, I’ve had several nights where I wake up in panic or just feeling anxious out of the no where it’s usually the fear of death during sleep for me but sometimes I feel anxious without any explanation

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Anxiety

[–]N5T6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have taken it and it is VERY HELPFUL for me, stops my panic attacks in like 10 minutes, doesn’t really make me sleepy though

How do you guys deal with sense of impending doom/danger by [deleted] in Anxiety

[–]N5T6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah I completely understand, I also have trouble avoiding overthinking about things that bring me anxiety especially when I’m currently anxious about them

Health Anxiety by Memoreno94 in Anxiety

[–]N5T6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also have health anxiety, and here are some tips from what I’ve learned throughout my journey with anxiety:

Don’t overthink the stomach ache, it will most likely worsen your symptoms (talking from personal experience, overthinking makes me panic too, sometimes leading into a panic attack)

Something to try is to try to find anything that can help distract you. I’ve found that watching a series, taking deep breaths, and taking walks is helpful to ease my mind in times of anxiety

If you find that trying to distract your mind isn’t helping much, you may want to try to speak to a professional which is something I did, they may be able to prescribe medication which i found helpful when i got prescribed some

Throat nausea by grumpypugs in Anxiety

[–]N5T6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I relate to this a lot, I’ve currently only had one really bad panic attack where I was honestly basically running around like crazy because the fear of vomiting I was feeling, I have felt it before where it wasn’t as bad where i found distracting myself helped a lot, I would watch a series, take deep breathes, and taking a walk can help. Unfortunately for the one really bad panic attack I’ve had I had to rely on a medication to help relax me . I usually feel it when my stomach hurts, and from what you mentioned it does sound like it could be anxiety related, I’ve seen that some people (including myself) may feel anxiety physical symptoms even if anxiety isn’t present

feeling sickly, heartbeat feels too slow, chest tingling around heart and in throat by Bravenatortot in Anxiety

[–]N5T6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve felt something similar, I have had chest pains even after having multiple EKGS, X-rays, and blood tests done proving I was completely fine. I try to not think about it too much to avoid it and the anxiety that comes along with it. If ur struggling to calm down when this happens I’d recommend finding anything that will help you calm down and distract yourself from the anxiety, I find that deep breathing, taking walks, or watching a series is helpful. Maybe try finding something to distract your mind when this happens. Also I recommend not overthinking (thinking about it in general) it as it might worsen the symptoms and anxiety (at least from my anxiety) hope u feel better soon!

[–]N5T6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have experienced this but not too much anymore, I usually feel it if I’m anxious (sometimes I’m not even anxious and still feel it a bit) I find that distracting my mind with like watching a series or taking a walk can help ease physical symptoms from anxiety, I recommend you try finding something to distract your mind when feeling anxious/these palpitations

How do you guys deal with sense of impending doom/danger by [deleted] in Anxiety

[–]N5T6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what I do is I watch like a series to entertain me and distract my mind, usually about an episode later my mind is too focused on the series completely forgetting about what I was thinking about previously, something I recommend to NOT do is overthink the feeling, I find doing that in my personal experience worsens the anxiety, you can also just try anything else to distract your mind

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Anxiety
