Nervous Lately

[Outdoorsman37]

I'm not sure why, but my anxiety has been bad the last couple of days. I also feel sick from it like stomach issues, feeling warm, shaking, and trouble staying asleep. I get times where it isn't bad and then it flares up again. I feel so exhausted from all of this.

Outdoorsman37, it would be good to figure out why your anxiety has gotten bad for the last couple of days.

Being able to have good insight about why you feel the way you do can be a real plus, I think.

I'm just concerned about having trouble sleeping with hypnagogic hallucinations. Plus I'm feeling down at times too.

Same! My anxiety has been through the roof with the same as you as far as shaking, feeling warm, stomach feeling weird, can't sleep and also feeling depressed. Usually I just have a normal amount of anxiety, but over the past months I could tell something different was happening. I had the same episode about 15 years ago and it lasted way too long. Hopefully not so long this time, but I know its depression mixed with anxiety right now.

I hope you find a way to feel better quickly. It totally sucks.

i can totally relate to you but i haven't had any problem sleeping apart from those really bad moments. there have been many times where i was so tired of it all and wanting to give up and die (not actually. i just wanted the pain to go away). thank god i didn't give up as the pain would be around longer making me feel worse. Sometimes i would question why god did this to me but i realized that it molded me into a stronger person and has brought me closer to a lot of things such as gratitude and looking for inspirational quotes and taught me how to better take care of my mental health . Something that has worked for me is i search for inspirational quotes- sometime make them myself!, write them down and put them up on my wall. in that way, when you are feeling down and ready to give you can look on your wall. also what i do is i write down all my achievements. doing things out of your comfort zone. i also have a reward chart. whenever i get a certain amount of stars i get a reward which is great! i found this quote that says "those who imprison themselves by here mood will never see change". basically if you stay in bed the whole time, things will get harder an will not gain anything from it. we are allowed to have days where we don't make any progress at all but it is important that we don't have those days too often.

Sorry to hear you're feeling this way. I've been struggling for awhile now. Every day it's anxiety and feeling down at times. Last night wasn't as bad, but I had trouble staying asleep. Now this morning I feel anxious again. I'm not sure what's causing all of this. I've visited my PCP and also had a mental health assessment. My medical tests came back normal and they felt it was stress. I was hoping I'd be feeling better by now. I've tried everything like exercise, spending time in nature, eating better, etc. to try and get over this. I think part of my stress is struggling with sleep related hallucinations. I even mentioned this during my mental health assessment and they didn't seem concerned. Maybe I need to get a second opinion.

Deal with the triggers.
