Anyone else relate to: when your not having anxiety feeling so confident in your ability to deal with (anxiety) until it actually comes back and your strugggggling. Had a few good days this week and felt amazing, got back to being myself. Then today felt like the anxiety was in control.
Yesss!! I deal with this as well. I’ve read that this is normal. Your brain is wired anxiously after dealing with anxiety for a good amount of time. You just have to remember rewriting your brain is a process and it takes time. Relapses will happen it’s just making sure you can hone your ability to recognize it when it’s happening, and having a healthy plan to not spiral downward.
Yes, it’s a rapid cycle, I think mine depends on my thought process and the climate meaning if it’s sunny and hot I don’t do very well unless I’m actively doing something, however if I anticipate the next day or things that are to come then I’m back at square one, that’s the GAD because it creates excessive worry, so the mind brings in intrusive thoughts and overtakes you.
Yes yes yes for years kept it under control then 4 years ago while living in Arizona got dehydrated went into Affib ended up in ICU for 2 days I’m good now but that brought up all those old anxiety triggers then got better again and about a month ago got Covid even after having all my vaccines and booster had 3 family members die from it a year ago and wasn’t too sick with it but the anxiety has me feeling as though I can never get enough air been to ER lungs good some days it’s good but the minute I think about it bam can’t breathe I can feel my muscles tight in diaphragm but can’t get them to loosen even taking my Ativan damn anxiety
how is your blood oxygen level when you feel you can’t breathe? I struggle with dyspnea since getting long Covid as well. My Blood oxygen is always fine and I have to make sure I don’t hyperventilate when I get this feeling of not being able to get a good breath. There have been studies that show some peoples lungs might not function as well after getting Covid. They need a special MRI with xenon gas to be able to see it though.
My oxygen levels show good I didn’t even have a bad case of Covid mostly headache and head cold thank you for the input though will mention to my Dr at next visit
