Anyone else on here going through what I am??

**blackSS01** · 07-24-2008, 01:59 PM

Well long story short, I guess I was diagnosed with Anxiety disorder and get BAD Panic attacks. They prescribed Lorazepam but I don't want to take it because I would like to fight through this FUCKING BULLSHIT with out meds. Plus it doesn't work that well. I just don't get it, by this time next year, I will be debt free. I have a good amount of savings, a decent job, everythings going great with the GF, I have 2 cars one a dd and them my maro. I use to be Military and have been overseas but that was years ago. I try to tell myself that I am healthy (been checked out by 3 doctors). When I get them, I can hardly breathe whichs makes me FREAK out, it almost feels like I am dying. I am starting to get depressed about this shit, I am too young and it good health to have this going on. I have felt like crap all day, this shit SUCKS BALLS. I just don't get why this is happening to me,

thats tough man, but it will all work out, you got things goin for you

**blackSS01** · 07-24-2008, 02:04 PM

Thats what I mean, I know i have things going for me. I just dropped all my unemployment weight, I dropped 28 lbs in 3 months. I am now back to my healthy 5'9" 140 lbs. Everything keeps getting better but I keep feeling worse. I am not terribly depressed but don't want to get to the point of suicide or any of that bullshit. I just want to be able to enjoy life. I am seriously going

just quit worring about it, take the ss out for a drive, fuck your gf and call in sick to work.......... everythings good

**blackSS01** · 07-24-2008, 02:09 PM

I am trying, but it is extremely hard when I am having to take deep breathes to get air. Freaks me out, and is almost impossible. I am going to fuck her tonight and work is a breeze so I am not worried about that tonight, maybe I will drive the maro to work to blow off steam..

**LS1FirehawkWS6** · 07-24-2008, 02:11 PM

I've got a severe case of social anxiety. If I'm in/around a large group of people I don't know, I get stressed. I agree with you 100% about doin' it drug free. The hardest part is to get motivated. I found a website that gives me little "tasks" to complete to slowly ween myself back into mainstream society

Try numerous things, one of them has GOT to work.

P.S.- Havin' a caring g/f helps.... a lot.

Not quite the same problem, but I am cynical now.

Thinking about talking to my doctor for some meds.

asthma?

**blackSS01** · 07-24-2008, 02:42 PM

I was tested for ashma (spell?) and according to all 3 doctors, I am in great shape, heart, lungs, everything is mint. I don't get it. I take vitamins, and walk about 20 miles a week. Believe it or not, it was worse when I exercised, which is suppose to help anxiety. I

Mind control, if you think your ill then your ill , think not then your not.
Just learn mind control,

i think asthma has to do with the esophagus or something swelling up so you dont get as much air

**blackSS01** · 07-24-2008, 03:04 PM

Thanks for the replies guys. Thanks for the link. I will try it out. The mind I have been told, can be your worst enemy. And mine wants to fuck my life over.

And hope you get better Mr. Luos and your little girl gets better. In my prayers.

I found that Paxil has helped me a great deal with all types of anxiety stuff

Pills are not the answer, Mind Control

**Crimson Sin** · 07-24-2008, 03:18 PM

A positive mental attitude, while extremely important.. won't rectify a chemical imbalance. Not knowing more about you, it's impossible to recommend a solution. A good support group could help. It sure helped me when I lost all my family in a two year span.. I would just LOSE it, for seemingly no reason whatsoever. Anxiety is a real issue in America. Research it. It has ten or so steps. Including diabetes, all sorts of medical issues. Last stage is death. It can be situational or chemical (imbalance due to some gland not producing the hormone/or chemical) it's supposed to. I still get attacks, and it's been 20 years.. But thought training ( you can reteach yourself to think/react in new ways) and a loving wife have certainly decreased my need to freak out or hurt people (yeah

for a time I had overwhelming urges to lash out and hurt others.. Not a good thing at all ) and I haven't had a blackout in near 15 years. I did the medical thing for years too, but they either left me foggy, or worse. One pill had me with no sex drive whatsoever.. heh my wife threw them away on me

She's a good girl

**Neo** · 07-24-2008, 04:24 PM

I got panic attacks when I was little and i had to teach myself to work through them...Fucking sucked and I wasn't stressed or anything. Everything got a lot faster and my breathing was all fucked up, and i had arrhythmia too. Not cool.

I got one again like a month ago after like 7 years without them...Weirded me out but it was okay cuz i knew what i was doing.

Seriously, think about getting a CAT scan. It's most likely a chemical imbalance. Mental strength only goes so far. The reason you get anxiety attacks is most likely because something's not quite right with your body.

**98 Stang Killer** · 07-24-2008, 05:12 PM

yeah i had the same problem couple yrs back i didnt wanna have to take the meds as well, you just have to learn when you feel one coming on to talk yourself out of them tell yourself your fine and nothing is wrong keep doing that and try to think of something good thats how i cope with mine without meds

**310stanger** · 07-24-2008, 05:20 PM

depression is a bitch. the worst is when people tell you to cheer up, like its that easy. You can't tell someone to not be depressed, when they are.

**blackSS01** · 07-24-2008, 05:20 PM

Thanks guys for all the help. Maybe I should get a cat scan, but I think I am going to try some mental strengthening first and see if I can't over come it. I am willing to try almost anything at this point. It is complete bullshit, fucking horrible. Sometimes I feel like my lungs are done and I am going to pass out and die.
