Have you always had these symptoms or the like and it was called something else? I have been labeled and have labeled myself so many things trying to figure out what my deal is, among them, ADD, LD, Social Anxiety, Depression and plain old Anxiety. Anxiety does seem to run in my family a bit on my mothers side and my mother herself is a bit OCD and of a Hypochondriac, no more then a bit. I don’t know if I’ve learned this disorder or if it is a biological thing. I’ve also recently found out that my biological father thinks he’s bi-polar, see why I feel crazy.
I’m just sharing my story and feelings, I guess so that you will share yours, it helps to not feel so alone, I know I’m not but it feels that way at times, this is one of those times, lol.
When I’m in an uncomfortable situation, my heart starts racing, and I get really hot all over. I hear buzzing and i can’t see right, everything looks scattered and I can’t think clearly. Sometimes I feel like I will throw up.
I’m a nice guy, that’s not too bad looking, yet i have been without a lasting relationship in such a long time. and because of that, because i have been shot down so hard many times before, because of my mental ailments that are inherited. i shrink each time i hear one of those deep love songs. it kills me inside.
i hope to god i am not sounding like some nerdy pervo creep, but i have to let this out, before it too, destroys me.
I take Byetta 5, glipizide 10 twice a day, actos 30 once a day…
I had a freaky panic attack yesterday, the only thing new in my life is the byetta.
I stopped driving on the freeway about 6 year ago. I was hit by a semi-truck in 1995 while going over a bridge and the accident totaled my car. I was fine until late 2000, early 2001. I learned how to drive in 1994 and I drove on the freeway up until 6 years ago. One day I was driving and started to panic. It would go away and then it could come back the next week. Before you knew it I was panicking every single day. The strange thing is that it was specific to a certain area on the freeway. After I got past that area I was fine. Months later I was no longer able to drive on the freeway at all. When I did try I would stop right in the middle of moving traffic, turn on my hazard lights and freeze up. Now, I get nervous when driving on 2-3 lane highways (not freeways). Sometimes I get nervous driving down a normal street. I refuse to take medicine for this.
Have you ever experienced this or do you think it will go away eventually? I think it’s a mind thing.
