When I Realized These Physical Sensations Were My Version of Panic Attacks

For so many years I had no idea what they were. It has only been in the last two weeks that I have made the connection of the physical sensations I’ve experienced and how they coincided with anxious times in my life. Everything I ever remember hearing or reading about panic attacks mention shortness of [...]

When I Realized the 'Weirdest Hangover I've Ever Had' Was Actually a Panic Attack

It began as a pretty typical Saturday morning in Boulder, over three years ago. I woke up in my big comfy bed in my sun-drenched condo, feeling like a pile of garbage. Despite leading what I thought was a “healthy” lifestyle, I had a tendency to go to happy hour after work on Fridays and [...]

4 Things You Shouldn’t Say to Someone Having a Panic Attack

This piece was written by Gaby Dunn, a Thought Catalog contributor. Panic attacks send adrenaline all over your body. When I have one, my heart races and my hands shake like someone’s doing brain surgery on me while I’m awake. The rest of my body might shiver or tremble. My arms sometimes feel numb. It [...]

Anxiety 1d

Hi everyone. So I am in a bit tricky situation.
I live in Crystal Lake Illinois. I live with my bf which I want to leave. But I work as a cleaning lady and I don’t really make much. I keep looking for an extra job or something for the weekends. But I don’t have SS so it’s hard to find something. With the money I got it’s not enough to rent something. Not like I can find anything either. I really want to change my situation but I don’t know what else I can do. Is anyone from here live around my area?
Also, im a bit scared to live by myself.. cuz of the panic attacks and anxiety, I feel safer with somebody in the house with me…
I’m really tired of the life I’m living…
Sending you all love and strength.

As promised, here is my favorite tea that helps pain AND helps you sleep!

It is called Lullaby on tealyra.com.

Not bad tasting at all and it helps me so much. The most common tea I have had most often all these years! 🫖☕️🎂

Honey and a splash of cream and I am ready for bed!

My whole life is evidence of this and trust me, I have not had any easiness in life.

My mom asked me 10yrs ago if I felt peace ever since I had had constant pain for 7 years and severe pain my whole life.

I was able to answer with a resounding YES!

Thanks to gospel daily studies, they were the Only thing that helped me control my pain and the anger that comes from being in pain.
When all meds and doctors failed, a but if scripture or hours long study sessions both made my pain into something I could ignore on a big level.

My whole life has benefited so so much all thanks to time set aside for me and our merciful father in heaven to catch up with each other.

I am so indebted to my parents raising me as a Latter-day Saint. ❤️❤️❤️✨️✨️✨️

Such a priceless gift.

My whole body hurts

I just took 2 percocet and I am laying down trying to get comfortable in bed but I'm really not feeling well today. I scratched my scalp too hard and now it's bleeding a little bit. I just wanted one day without a panic attack. But I'm not allowed to have good days. FML

I need a new body. Mine is broken.

Chronic Pain 24/7 4d

Hello

Hello, my names Kenzie and I was recently diagnosed with tietzes syndrome (basically the cartridge around my sternum and ribs is inflamed and can last for years) it’s very hard to manage the pain as it’s a rare disease so no medication has been proven to really help besides over the counter pain reliever. I also suffer from severe health anxiety and it’s been causing me to lose sleep because I’m scared that I’m going to mess up something in my sleep as I have to sleep on my back now. I’ve been waking up in the middle of the night and my body has no intentions on wanting to fall back asleep… it’s just been hard to manage as I live alone and suffer from also passing out because of pain. I have been so lost for the past week… I also want more insight on panic attacks, is it common for wrists to hurt during an episode? Like feel tingly? Any insight would help please… I think what’s happening is my body is waking up from a panic attack about to happen. Is that possible too? Thank you.
