Anxiety all day long

[rybonn]

Does anyone else have anxiety all day long fron the moment they wake to the moment you go to sleep? I have been dealing with this for 2 years now, and have tried medication, meditation, acceptance, therapy ect...i just dont seem to ever get better...i may have a good day or even a week here and there, but mostly constant anxiety. I cry most days, and have zero tolerance for any stress..any one else experiance this, or am i that messed up? Im so afraid ill never get better, and just want my life back!!! Any advice?

Hang in there and just try and think of positive things throughout the day and stay distracted if you can. I know, its easier said than done. I have anxiety from the moment I wake up, but I take Xanax 3 times a day and it seems to help a lot. I can notice when the dose is starting to end and need another :)

One thing you might want to think about is how well are you sleeping? Maybe a standard sleep aid like tylenal PM to help you feel rested and less anxious in the morning. A bad start to the day and set the stage for the rest of the day. Good luck.

Im exactly like you except I've been dealing with constant anxiety going on 4 years now. I don't know what to do about it and honestly I've given up trying a long time ago. Like you said therapy doesn't work because I went to therapy myself. Xanax works but only for a little while. I have extreme symptoms all the time and it never lets up. I can only sympathize about what you're going through.

Yes, I feel exactly the same. In the day time I feel better, but the obsessive thoughts are still there.
When night time hits, the anxiety hits hard. :/

No symptoms as such to worry about, just my brain convincing me that I will die of a heart problem

I deal with the physical symptoms of anxiety all day long. There is usually at least one muscle on my body that aches. I tend to have a constant feeling of tightness in my throat. When I walk to work I always become aware of my breathing along the way, I guess thinking that I am not taking in enough air. Just to name a few...
