Anxiety Disorder?

Question

I've always had mild anxiety. But recently it's gotten a lot worse, and today it's been so bad that I'm missing out on family events because I physically can't get out of bed. I've already had 2 panic attacks today as well. Is this anxiety disorder, or is it just playing up at the moment?

Answer

I have anxiety disorder and I would say that if it's stopping you from your life then yes it's beyond just a panic attack or two. Read the book D.A.R.E. It's life changing! Also medication can be incredibly beneficial for this. consider seeing your doctor.

Answer

Talking to a therapist helped me with my anxiety. If you are physically incapable of leaving your bed you should try and seek professional help. I was diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder and I'm glad I was because I thought there was something wrong with me and I just didn't know why. But now I can learn about my disorder and know what to do in certain situations if I feel like I'm about to have a panic attack or an "episode" I prefer to call it.  It also helps me figure out how to deal with certain issues in my relationships with others.

Answer

I usually take meds for my anxiety, but I stopped due to pregnancy. I literally stay away from everyone. I'm just around my fiance and parents . cause anything can trigger the attacks. I find myself playing computer games to distract and calm me down ..
