It's UNBELIEVABLY hard to control your thoughts, it's as if someone is running your mind with the most unthinkable fear, you notice things in your breathing, sitting, surroundings everything you could careless about it. It is terribly hard concentrate on everyday tasks, you can't do it.
It feels like its wrapping itself around your throat, and griping at your stomach, you want to cry, you start breathing heavy, your head is pounding and your hot and sweaty, you want to run out of wherever you are and go in your bed and just rock yourself.
Understanding anxiety disorders
It’s normal to worry and feel tense or scared when under pressure or facing a stressful situation. Anxiety is the body’s natural response to danger, an automatic alarm that goes off when you feel threatened.
In moderation, anxiety isn’t always a bad thing. In fact, anxiety can help you stay alert and focused, spur you to action, and motivate you to solve problems. But when anxiety is constant or overwhelming, when it interferes with your relationships and activities, it stops being functional—that’s when you’ve crossed the line from normal, productive anxiety into the territory of anxiety disorders.
Signs and symptoms of anxiety disorders
Because anxiety disorders are a group of related conditions rather than a single disorder, they can look very different from person to person. One individual may suffer from intense anxiety attacks that strike without warning, while another gets panicky at the thought of mingling at a party. Someone else may struggle with a disabling fear of driving, or uncontrollable, intrusive thoughts. Yet another may live in a constant state of tension, worrying about anything and everything.
Despite their different forms, all anxiety disorders share one major symptom: persistent or severe fear or worry in situations where most people wouldn’t feel threatened.
