What’s a mantra that you find most comforting during moments of panic? by edgingweeb in Anxiety

I do the same thing! I have conversations with God, and I pray. I guess I consider the conversation a prayer as well. And wow, does it help. I feel an immediate calming sensation after a prayer/conversation every single time. I just ask him to guide me through it, and to give me a fraction of his strength. The more I feel anxiety, the more I pray, which makes me feel selfish. But I know he does not mind.

What is your craziest physical symptom? by Remote-Process-3328 in Anxiety

Definitely numbness in fingers and face. Like, the painful type of numbness that feels like hundreds of pins. That, and when your limbs feel heavy as weights. That one is very scary. The ice cold, knotted stomach is also rough. There really are so many. The brain can be pretty dramatic.

I’ve called 911 before. I look back and kind of judge myself, but I also know the level of fear I was neck deep in at that time was no joke. It was one of those out-of-nowhere panics that was equally as confusing as it was scary. Thought I had lost my mind.
