Jazz Flores it can be really claustrophobic can’t it? Try not to feel ‘trapped’ as such, how can you find the positives in this time? Is there a project you’ve wanted to work on? Maybe a new skill you’ve always wanted to learn? Perfect time! I know it’s easier said than done, but just try and stay positive, busy and healthy ♥️♥️♥️
Thank you very much for the reply I’ve developed a really bad case of anxiety over the last few years I’ve been on Cymbalta and a mix of other meds since 2012 for brain damage I suffered in a car accident like nerve pain and other not so fun issues the brain controls lol in a way I know when I’m going to have an episode of a panic attack or anxiety my body goes experiences a weird cold chill and some of those brain zaps And the more I think about this lock down the more I hyperventilate and scares me knowing I have to stay home I appreciate your vids they don’t make me feel so alone and makes me smile so thanx from the bottoms of my heart it’s been so hard to explain what I have to deal with my family and friends they just don’t understand Honestly I’m not afraid of anything I achieved so much and when the doctors said I would never walked or talk again I proved them all wrong and got out of a wheelchair and it gave me a lot of self worth and confidence knowing if you truely put your mind to something there isn’t a lot you can not achieve but the flip side of dealing with this anxiety It is getting to the point where I’m actually scared of it and it is slowly defeating me I’m a very happy person and always in good spirits but its turned me into being afraid to leave my house and it turned me into A complete mess I’m sorry for this big reply I generally don’t talk about things and sorry for putting this on you I’m just going thru a bad time with or without this virus lol god bless Carla x
Jazz Flores no thank you SO much for your long message. A problem shared is a problem halved. It really does sound like you’ve been through a huge amount, and overcome a huge amount, so it’s really important to know that you will overcome this too - try and remember what it felt like when you thought you would never walk again, and then you did it! You overcame what seemed impossible, and you’ll do the same with this anxiety. You just have to keep working on it! Perhaps looking into therapy would be a good idea? There are some great online therapists so you don’t need to leave the house. Also, it’s a long term solution, ‘headspace’ app teaches mindfulness, and it took me a while to get into it, but it helped me so much with my anxiety! Learning not to think about the future or past, be in the present a little more! Xxxx
I have a routine and my service dog and I have one because if her she I wake up take my medince because she reminds and then I take my dog and then I listen to a podcast and then I eat breakfest and have coffee and then I will do a ten mintunes work out and feed my dogs then I feed my cats and scoop the littler box then I get ready for the day do an hour of my skillshare class I will flim a TH-cam video and then I will take my dogs out again then I talk to my grandma everyday to see how there doing
I've had such a bad relapse during covid. I did stop my medication but it coincided with the lockdown which was just awful timing. I was then trying sertraline which was just awful and now I've gone back to 20mg citalopram so I'm waiting for that to kick in. I can't get any enjoyment out of my days atm and I've been running etc :(
FoxyLadyLongLegs11 I’m so sorry to hear this 😔 that does sound like really bad timing, have you made a list of everything you can do that might cheer you up? Nice bath, meditation, reading... whatever might work for you? I know it’s easier said than done!! ❤️❤️❤️
@@speakyourmindm.h5794 I just feel like nothing is working. I just feel in an absolute pit. Maybe I'm expecting too much from the things I'm doing to try and make myself feel better and am let down each time. Reading I've not tried, I just want to get out of my head but the harder you actively try to do that the deeper in you go. I'm going to speak to my GP tomorrow.
Its been a few years. Just found the channel and hope all is well with you!

It’s pretty claustrophobic tbh
Now I feel trapped in my own house and don’t want to go anywhere we havnt been locked in yet here in Australia

And the more I think about this lock down the more I hyperventilate and scares me knowing I have to stay home
I appreciate your vids they don’t make me feel so alone and makes me smile so thanx from the bottoms of my heart it’s been so hard to explain what I have to deal with my family and friends they just don’t understand
Honestly I’m not afraid of anything I achieved so much and when the doctors said I would never walked or talk again I proved them all wrong and got out of a wheelchair and it gave me a lot of self worth and confidence knowing if you truely put your mind to something there isn’t a lot you can not achieve but the flip side of dealing with this anxiety
It is getting to the point where I’m actually scared of it and it is slowly defeating me I’m a very happy person and always in good spirits but its turned me into being afraid to leave my house and it turned me into
A complete mess I’m sorry for this big reply I generally don’t talk about things and sorry for putting this on you I’m just going thru a bad time with or without this virus lol god bless Carla x
