Constant Anxiety and Dissociation: Need Suggestions

Personally, I've had to run through so many SSRI's and SNRI's, had an allergic reaction to Abilify too! The journey to find meds that are suited for your needs can be a long, tiring experience. The best advice I can give as far as that goes, is to be 100% transparent with your doctors. I'm finally on some meds that I think help, buuut I still find myself in a disassociative state really often when my feelings become overwhelming, particularly anxiety/panic. I've been practicing separating myself from my thoughts so that I can sort of remind myself, "hey!! Your feelings can't hurt you. You're safe with your feelings, even uncomfortable ones." Sometimes when I start to freak out about tummy aches, heart flutters, dizziness etc I remind myself again "your body is doing what it is supposed to do. You're NOT IN DANGER!" It seems a little silly at first but when my brain is reeling with scary, irrational thoughts and I feel close to shutting down completely, it actually helps a lot to simplify things! Finally - I recommend out-doing your anxiety. Heart is racing? Hyperventilating? Pace around, be loud, breathe as heavy as you can! Ultimately I find it to be very comforting that I am far stronger than the anxiety that plagues me 💪
