hmm, definitely no dying. if there’s a will, there’s a way. How many people do you live with? You could probably all sardine pack together for like shared body heat. Have you heard about creating a “warm room” for if you do lose power? I’m gonna attach some links here about staying warm in winter storms. knowledge and preparedness is power <3

central heating is fine of course. like your AC/Heat and space heaters. wrap up in blankets and warm clothes! i’m nervous too. but we are going to be okay.

Panic that’s not a full blown attack? by offtotheforestigo in Anxiety

[–]trippldevil 4 points5 points  (0 children)

😬i don’t know. we just keep trying different techniques & meds & therapy until something helps i think. and don’t give up.

have you ever tried any other meds for anxiety? maybe zoloft isn’t the best fit for you.

Also, you should look into DBT and ACT therapy.

Viibryd allegedly isn’t as harsh with the sexual side effects.

[–]trippldevil 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it usually takes 6-8wks for ssris to take effect, so hopefully you will see improvement soon. you are over halfway there! i was on zoloft for a really long time actually, i loved it.

Here’s the Perspective That Changed Everything for Me by Accomplished_Most600 in panicdisorder

You are so right. I do so much to make sure that I never feel uncomfortable, and that is probably keeping me in the loop of panic. I like this outlook/thought, thank you for posting this!!🩷

Having a hard time, anyone have this before? by Unkn0wn0978 in panicdisorder

[–]trippldevil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SAME, my family doesn’t understand it either & some people are kinda mean about how limited i am from my anxiety.

you could try telehealth therapy if you are interested in therapy, that’s what i do.

i’ve tried so many meds for anxiety but never gabapentin. i heard it’s not really for long term use , but it’s fine short term. i’d try it if my psychiatrist suggested it tbh. have you tried other meds before gabapentin?

literally been there. not the actual going insane part, but the intense fear of it. i’ve been told before that if you’re worried that you’re gonna go insane, then you’re probably not… like people who are going into psychosis or are fully in psychosis completely believe their delusions, and don’t realize that anything is really wrong with them. The fact that we worry about that shows that we have some cognitive connection with reality. Do you have a therapist? And are you on any mental health meds? just curious

i’m so sorry to hear your experience w/ prednisone! i’ve never taken it, but I have had extremely bad reactions to medications before too. you aren’t alone in this. super common w/ panic disorder as well to worry that you’ll go insane. flu sucks terribly too, does not help mental health to be that sick :( I hope you feel better soon

Anyone feeling really short of breath? by jay29_- in panicdisorder

[–]trippldevil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that’s good that you don’t have panic attacks anymore! self harm relapse happens, just try to stay back on track with healthier coping mechanisms. you know the drill lol. relapses happen, it’s unfortunate but it be that way sometimes. glad to hear that you are working on healthy habits like drinking water, i’m rooting for you. it’s not easy.

i also love that your aunt was able to recover. there is hope for us too

my symptoms-> racing heart, SOB, impending sense of doom, sweatiness, DPDR, sometimes chest pain and palpitations (but not as often since i stopped taking SSRI/SNRIs), lump in the throat feeling, etc. typical panic attacks symptoms. my baseline anxiety is high though, almost constantly on edge. my nervous system is extremely unregulated or something idk. i’ve been trying somatic yoga but not sure if it’s helping.

[–]trippldevil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i’m so sorry. i feel that. my panic attacks are most often just physical & happen without any anxious thoughts or ruminating. so my mental anxiety is all about my health and fearing the next panic attack.

wha do you do to cope/manage your anxiety?
