I’m very overwhelmed anxiety been through the roof
I'm sorry to hear that you're feeling this way. It's completely understandable to feel overwhelmed and anxious, especially during challenging times. Try deep breathing exercises to calm your nervous system. Inhale deeply through your nose for a count of four, hold for a count of four, and exhale through your mouth for a count of four. Repeat this several times. Engaging in physical activities, whether it's a walk, yoga, or any form of exercise, can help to release built-up tension and improve your mood. Practices like mindfulness or meditation can help you stay grounded and reduce anxious thoughts by focusing on the present moment. Reducing caffeine and sugar intake can lower anxiety levels, as these can exacerbate feelings of nervousness. If possible, limit your exposure to stressors in your life, whether it's work-related stress, social media, or other pressures. Seek professional help if your anxiety feels unmanageable. Remember to be kind to yourself during this time. It's okay to seek help and take breaks when you need them.
@Amara Thank you I’m feeling a little better today I am a first time mom to a eight month old daughter so it could be postpartum depression. I’m not exactly sure
@Amara I be trying to hold it together but sometimes I just be wanting to break down and I don’t like bothering people with my problems so I’m the type of person that just holds everything in so I’m just a big ball of emotions
I'm really sorry to hear that, Eva. Just know we're here for you and if there's anything we can do specifically to help let us know!
@OCD Helping Hand Thank you I really appreciate that
I was doing so great for about a month, ups and downs. Now I’m riddled with anxiety. I’m trying to push through, I’ve been cooking and doing other things that make me feel productive. I had Covid like two weeks ago, felt better for 3 days (exhausted though) and boom I get hit with strep throat. My anxiety is through the roof, rejection sensitivity is all I know right now. Ruminating turned up to max volume that I keep having to slam down. I’m feeling pretty hopeless and lonely. I feel scared and full of shame. My body hurts and my throat is killing me. I’m so exhausted. I feel like I’m on 1% I just needed to vent a bit but if anyone has any advice I’d appreciate it so much
If anyone is free I really need to talk. I’m panicking
So my OCD got that bad to the point where I’m barely having ocd and my body is stuck in stress, I can’t sleep, my mind is soo loud and my chest hurts and my vains are popping out and I feel like my body is shutting down what do I do ☹️ I don’t even feel like I am here I can’t focus on anything I’m always zoned out
