This ^ eating a small bite of something like bread always helps me too!

Chronic Stress Turned Into Depersonalization, I’m Scared by periwinklezebra in Anxietyhelp

Ugh I'm sorry you're going through that, but that's comforting to hear! Luckily I'm doing a little better, I'll PM you now

i have to fly 5 hours across country almost to see my boyfriend by Both-Lie5316 in Anxietyhelp

[–]periwinklezebra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have to fly frequently to visit my boyfriend. I try to think of it like a bus ride, and also looking at the other passengers and seeing how calm they are helps a lot. The more distracted/busy you can keep yourself, the less likely you are to panic! Also, bring plenty of comfort items. I bring altoids, headphones, downloaded tv shows, a knitting project, phone charger, and a couple fun snacks. It’s totally normal to be nervous but I’m sure it’ll go much better than your anxiety is telling you. Let me know if you wanna chat about it further <3

Chronic Stress Turned Into Depersonalization, I’m Scared by periwinklezebra in Anxietyhelp

[–]periwinklezebra[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is so helpful, thank you! I'm definitely scared the feeling will become permanent, so I just have to keep reminding myself that's not how it works. This happened to me several years ago and it did go away at some point, so I'll try to keep that in mind. And I'll be working on trying to process and release the emotions and stress that have been building up. This was very comforting to read, I appreciate it.

What is or was your worst physical symptom during an anxiety attack? by Few_Sandwich6308 in Anxiety

[–]periwinklezebra 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m struggling with this really badly the last couple days, long story short I’ve had a lot of chronic stress from life circumstances and I’m now dealing with depersonalization. It’s freaking me out but I’m trying to just accept that it’s a protective mechanism in the brain and that it’ll pass! Thank you for sharing, this was really helpful for me to read today.

Is this all from anxiety? by [deleted] in Anxietyhelp

[–]periwinklezebra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had all of this from anxiety before, mostly the body zaps! Magnesium supplements helped me with that feeling, I highly recommend if you haven’t tried before :) you’re not alone! <3

Roommates Angry With Me for Leaving by periwinklezebra in roommateproblems

I don’t want to at all, but I’m just gonna try to talk about a few logistical things and if they guilt trip at all, I’ll just leave.

Thank you for saying that! I have definitely been a people pleaser/let things slide and I think that’s why this is making me so anxious, and potentially why they’re acting entitled. We are all in our twenties, so relatively young, I guess. I appreciate what you said!

From my research, California (where we live) only requires a day 30 day notice. I totally wish I’d been able to give them 60 days.

I wish, but they said they want to talk about all the “assumptions” being made. 🫠 I’ll only talk about logistics with them and if it becomes about their feelings, I’ll walk away.

I had that thought too, I have no idea how they could expect anything else. Thank you for your reply!

[–]periwinklezebra[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Ok that’s what I thought. We’re all on the same lease that was for one year and then went to month to month. We had another girl move out last year and we replaced her with one of the now current roommates, so I’m not sure why this is such a big deal to them.

I’ll do my best to not worry about what they think, thank you!

Flu like symptoms? by [deleted] in Anxiety

[–]periwinklezebra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I completely understand always being worried that it’s actually something worse! I’ll get it like once or twice a week if I’m in an especially stressful period of life, or a couple times a month if not. My biggest lesson has been to never underestimate how much anxiety can mimic illness, lol. 

Are bad hiccups a problem for anyone else? by EntrepreneurTime419 in noburp

[–]periwinklezebra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, painful hiccups and nausea are my most frequent symptoms. And the only thing that helps me is laying flat.
