  • 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.

      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.

      Dorks MSP for some reason this made me laugh. Like literally. The " stop having a seizure" is the part that seems funny to because its absurd) i agree with you, but as a person who suffers from GAD i kinda tell people to calm down. even though i understand from experience that this is absurd to tell this, but actually thats exactly what you need to do, i learned it in a way that i got to the point that i didnt care already if i "live or die" and after that breaking point i steadily getting better, also AD are a helping hand. 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.

Also honey, the mind doesn't know the difference between reality and imagination. Be Positive and DESTROY the negativity. Youre only in the state youre in cause youre already saying negative things about everything. Honestly did you even say one positive thing in this video. 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.

    "Most of the time there is no problem, there is no life or death situation, there is no rhyme or reason, there is just feelings and I'm feeling them all at once." This describes me so much. Half the time when I'm having an anxiety attack, I KNOW that there's no reason for it but it's happening anyway. Particularly social anxiety. I'm not going to die while telling the person at the counter that I have a hair or dentist appointment but I will think about it for hours beforehand and it's terrifying for NO reason.

      +earthtoterra i need help, i'm know thay i've had anexity attack, especally in middleschool going into high school but, to be honest i've tried so hard to forget all of that ibarley remeber how i felt, i think i just had pure anexity, to the point where it was almost a panik attack ( i hope this makes sense) but everything is better now, and i though that my anexity attacks where gone, but then i got one in the middle of class and i didnt know what was going on untill i got home and realised what it was. i don't know why it came back, and i dont know what to do about it

    • @Terragiggles
      @Terragiggles Před 8 lety +6

      +love456music Sometimes things get so stressful in life that the body needs a way to express it. Usually when I'm having anxiety, I like to take a nap because it makes my breathing remain even and I usually feel like I'm in a better headspace than beforehand. You can also talk to your parents and/or doctor about how you're feeling and they will help you.

    -Overthinking too much
    -Sad thoughts
    -I feel like people talk about me when there actually not
    -Some good days
    -I smile but deep down I’m sad.
    -Can’t stand still in a desk I gotta move around or I’ll feel uncomfortable.
    -Sometimes i feel insecure about myself.

    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.

Being scared over practically everything, fidgeting, worrying about what other people think of you. Just know you are good enough and you aren’t alone. You are smart, beautiful, and amazing. Life is really tough but you are doing so so well! Keep holding on. For a while I feel like no one understood me and I didn’t want to get help, but once I did, it got so much better!!! You are all amazing humans!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
