Re: rough time
@outlanderyou can ask for help hun, you know I will always try and help you or at least be here with you.
Just take a few deep breaths. Can you tell me which 2 emotions are the most prominant at the moment? Lets start slowly

Re: rough time
Its everything. I cant get my anxiety under control. Its making mr rather irrational. The more upset i get the worse the physical pain gets and then it just makes things worse. I cant get any of it under control. Its just trigger after trigger and my pop saying he has a headache and mum saying my sister has a stomach ache has those thoughts of what is wrong. Something is wrong.
Too many thoughts. My head feels like its going to explode.
I tried a shower but it made things worse because it takes me forever to get dressed and is a struggle sending my anxiety all over the place and into a panic attack. It just wont stop

Re: rough time
Ok @outlander just try and take some deep breaths hun. Remember we sometimes think the worse and it turns out to be nothing at all.
Perhaps try to simplify your thoughts
Can you just keep repeating a few simple sentences in your head such as"
I am at home in my room
Everything will be ok
My feelings will pass.

Re: rough time
Its making me feel rather sick @Snowie
Ive been trying to distract from it by music reading or phone games but it just seems to keep going round and round.
Ive asked pop a few times if hes okand he said yea its gone but why wont my brain let it go! Its stressing me out that my brain keeps telling me theres something wrong and what if it comes back. Same as asking mum. No temps nothing else just an upset stomach. I keep saying mum knows what shes doing she will be fine but my head just wont listen. It just keeps accumlating the thoughts.

Re: rough time
@outlanderhugs hun, sounds like you have tried a few things.....
When you have felt like this before, what have you done in the past to get through it?

Re: rough time
Its hasnt been this bad before. Not to this extent. Usually if i ask and pops ok i can let it go but its not stopping. Same as sister i cant just seem to accept ok shes abit off but will be ok. My thoughts wont stop and i dont know why. When it wasnt this bad i could let it go and the anxiety would ease and i could go back to reading or something. I dont know what to do when its like this. @Snowie i dont know what else to try besides what ive already done....
I feel so horrible,your trying to help and i appreciate it but i also feel its pushing you away with my anxiety 😞

Re: rough time
@outlanderhun don't fell terrible, you are not pushing me away.
Sometimes it is trial and error when we are distressed. Sometimes it is just about trying something and moving onto the next thing. I know how frustrating that can be too, when things we have done in the past are not working now.
Can you write yourself a script? That is something you read to yourself over and over again to try and help with the anxiety. I use them a lot, to the point where I know my script's of by heart now.
Or do you think you need to talk to someone over the phone?
