  • I wrote this piece a few months ago when I tried to explain to somebody how it feels inside my head. I was diagnosed with depression, anxiety and ADHD over a year ago and every day is different story. In hopes to wrap my head around the feelings inside my brain- I thought I'd open it up for you all. You are not alone.
    If you or somebody you know is dealing with something too much for them to handle alone, talk to somebody:

      Gen Moi I’m late on this lol. That’s exactly what it feels like for me. I’ll start panicking over things that are months or even years away. No matter how much time I have to prepare myself for something, or how insignificant/significant the situation could be, my thoughts swarm in my head and I can’t control them. It’s like a sudden fear that grips at your whole body; your heart rate going so loud that you can’t hear over it. Your senses on alert. Numbness in certain parts of the body could happen; for me it being my tongue goes numb and dry. You feel like you’re almost choking when you speak so you end up stuttering like a madman. Your whole body just instantly tenses up to the point where it can be almost painful. Your hands and feet may start to tingle and sweat like hell. You feel like everyone in the room is focusing on you even when that’s not the case. Or like you’re doing something entirely wrong/ different than everyone else and being judged negatively for it, even when that’s also not the case. Unfortunately, this is something that can’t be controlled.

      Yes! I remember I had really bad anxiety before I was diagnosed, me and my family were in a dark alley way and I just thought that someone would drive by and shoot them. So many thoughts played in my head “what are you gonna do when they’re gone?” “Will you live with your aunt?” “How are you gonna protect yourself so that you dont get shot?” “You’re in a different part of the world, how will you communicate to the police?” To the point where I curled up on the bottom of the car to avoid getting hit by the bullet and started crying. It was so awful, and while my family members were just in the front seat, neither of them knew what happened to me that day.
      I think the worst part about it all is obviously that it never happened.

      @Clarissa im so sorry for the paim u r going through my love.
      So firstly, its okay not to be okay my love, we all are perfectly flawed humans that WE ARE SUPPOSED TO BE. So plsssssssss dont be tooooooo hard on urself.
      Why r u mad at urself? Is it, by any chance, ur mistake? My love its okay, u r not alone. We all are here for u, tho we cant feel the intensity of ur anxiety but we can try our best to help you.
      Ohhhh that hits hard... But u know what? Im crazy in that state and its okay. I scream, i dance and sing in the shower, i drink water, i talk to myself loudly and try to lecture myself to understand my feelings amd stop these feels, i play games and play music on speakers. Sometimes i even tackle it by just sitting and taking deep breathe and feeling my heart beating fast. I just get busy in something loud and something that makes me feel like i matter and that i exist im not dead or invisible that how it feels right? I go in front of birds and any living thing and when they see me and fly or something i try to make myself understand that, see u exist they can see u. U matter, u r important and that they can see u. I know its hard love. But only heroes like u can deal it and still be here till this day. Remember only the ones fighting get tired and not the ones who have already given up. Im proud of you hero!! Stay strong!! More power to you! ❤️❤️❤️👏👏💪👍🤗
      And yes my love, U DO NOT BURDEN ANYONE. Whoever talks to u about it is fated to meet u and its ur fate that is trying to help you. U r a human amd u need to vent ur emotions. Its just those toxic people who dont want to listen to anything. Trust me my luv, ive been talking to someone since a month already and i dont mind at all. Feel free to text me anytime you feel that way. Pls dont hesitate. Im not like school teachers. 😜

      It feels like I'm being attacked, and you want to defend yourself but no one is actually harming me. But it feels like I'm being stabbed over and over again in my brain and you just want it to stop, so I start thinking of how to defend myself how to make it stop, meanwhile my brain is still being attacked, feels like I'm drowning but I'm on land. Feels like I'm already dead, or on the verge of death, that it's already to late for me. Like I have fallen down a well and I know I'm not coming back out, just I haven't hit bottom yet. That no matter what I do it's to late. My mind races a million miles in every direction meanwhile I know my body is standing still, stuck frozen in time.

      twenty one pirates Praying to God and Jesus Christ helped me a lot with my anxiety. One day I prayed to God and told him how I was feeling and now I can actually see him working on me. I was feeling very anxious and depressed and ever since I put my faith and trust in God he has been healing me. I'm not joking. Praying to God can truly help. People seem to forget this but we are spiritual beings at the end of the day. When we are feeling negative things like anxiety, depression, insecurity, loneliness, etc. it is because our soul needs help and improvement and the only way to get that is to pray to the Lord Jesus Christ. Even if you don't believe in God, just pray to God, he loves everyone he will show you signs that he is in fact real. You just have to put your trust in him and he can help you.

    Okay I'll try to explain what my anxiety feels like:
    - uncomfortable around anyone, even my family because I feel like I have to pretend
    - get nervous about everything, even going out to the street
    - overthink EVERYTHING and in case I have to interact with someone I practice for hours in case I mess up
    - worrying about the future 24/7
    - horrible sleeping schedule because I feel I'm losing time
    - getting flustered about minimal situations if that requires other person seeing me
    - not feeling connected with my body and out of control
    - sudden feeling of dying or wanting to run away
    - difficult to breath or concentrate
    - get stuck thinking one word or phrase for hours
    - never feeling like I'm prepared enough, talking about daily tasks

      This is exactly how I felt my whole life. I used to think that everybody lived that way, that this was the regular setting for a human being, I didn't know this was anxiety, let alone what anxiety was. I thought I was abnormal for feeling the way I felt, that I was weak, I hated to feel this way, I always wondered how other people could deal with the stress, the sweaty palms, the awkwardness, the stomach ache...but I was alone in that hell. Nobody could get me or my reactions to certain settings. I felt so out of place and lonely in my madness. I still do and I still hide my anxiety, to everybody else I'm that moody but otherwise normal girl but underneath that I'm still feeling like I am in danger, I still grit my teeth and contract my muscles so I don t fidget out of anxiousness. It's tiresome. And I come off as crazy.

If you can see a Psychiatrist this may help. Sometimes Schizophrenia can cause some people to HEAR Voices. It is a Chemical Imbalance in the Brain at times. Or maybe just Anxiety. Ask the Psychiatrist. They have Medication that can Stop this. Hope you feel better.

Tell Your Parents about the Bullying. I was picked on and Bullied almost Daily from 6th to 8th Grade. I did have some Great True Friend's. And I had a Blast when I was Young hanging out with my Best Friend After School. I tried to Ignore the Bullying but it was Hard at times. Luckily I Graduated Grade School and had the Coolest Friend's in High School. Once I grew More Attractive looking with No More Braces then I got More Popular. It is Very SAD how People Judge Us from the way we look or the way that we Dress or who are Good Friend's sre. Make Gopd Friend's, the ones the Bullies pick on. If you get 10 Friend's or even 1 who goes through that you will Not feel So one. Try to be Happy with Yourself despite the Bullies. Be Nice to them even though their Not Nice..A few might get Nice. Sorry you go through that.

Not the way those Boys see you. Look how Jesus Christ see's you. You sounds Nice and Intellegent. I was like You at your age. You sound Nice. Stay Sweet!! Pick Good Friend's and leave the School Building with them. Always have your Ride Home Planned out ahead. Keep your Cell phone with You at All times and keep Your Cell phone charged. Stay sweet..Your Intellegent. I like your Views. You Respect Womem and your Cool. You remind Me of You when I was Your age.

I think the best words to hear while in a panic/anxiety attack is "im with you. Im here to help you get through it. I'll protect you and make sure you are going to be fine" as panic attack is basically flee or fight kind of situation.. its really soothing to hear that there's some one to take care of you.

      SOMYA SINGH it can get better with medication and cognitive behavioral therapy. You learn coping tools to cut it off when it’s happening and to get over the episode a little quicker. My therapist actually talked me through one today. Instead of going through all the stages of it she helped me stop it 2 minutes in. My panic attacks usually last 10 minutes or more. I would suggest seeing a therapist. I didn’t when I was a teen and now I’m a semi functioning adult with terrible mental health. Getting better though!

      I hate that my own parents yell at me for "cowering" when they ask a simple question.
      It's not a conscious thought to flinch away, it's a reaction. Why do you have to scold and yell and beat me, or confine me to my room or a tiny little chair, as if punishing me is going to make me get better? It's only made it worse. I'm terrified of even _looking_ at my stepfather now, lest I've done some tiny thing wrong and he calls it out like it's life or death.
      My only source of comfort is ranting to strangers who couldn't care less, because at least then my parents can't yell at me for not telling them how I feel when I get yelled at.

Thrash metal has also proven to destroy these negative thoughts. Also life has duality, stay balanced good and bad are the same thing , just at opposite ends of the spectrum. Get it you guys! Everything I have written so far is just positive thinking, have nothing to do with anxiety, You guys give us ANXIETY! What do you think about that! AHHHH I Feel better now. Brahmacharya - Conservation of Sexual energy also destroys negative thinking before it erupts into an anxiety type action.Fangster

      And www.natural-stress-relief.com/ It is literally the cure for anxiety disorders, the media has hidden it from you because there is no profit in a cure. I never suffered from severe anxiety but my friend who had a social anxiety disorder turned into a completely different person 2 - 3 weeks later, he now has a girlfriend, when he never had a girlfriend for the whole 20 years he's been alive for.

    This is so accurate! I can relate to this video to the very core. I have anxiety since half of my life and it has made me feel guilty for everything i do. I don't leave home, i don't enjoy the world outside because i know if i do it'll end up feeling like I've done a crime. I find it hard to breathe and my ears and face turn red when i have a panic attack. I'm learning to overcome my anxiety but when i have an attack it lasts for days and sometimes months! It's really hard. I can only have hope that one day it'll all be over and I'll enjoy my life as i did when i was a child.
