I've just had lunch with my work colleagues and it was so hard for me to just seat with them at the table, eat my lunch and have normal conversation. I was very anxious going to lunch as I knew the canteen will be packed and certain people I know make me anxious from the way they look at me or talk to me. I feel like they can tell how I'm feeling or they may even thinking stupid or crazy because I tend to be quite when I'm anxious as I can't manage a conversation and avoid being confronted with questions or even sometimes avoid meeting people in the hall or out on the smoking patio as I would have to speak to them. I don't always feel like this and can be very chatty and normally I always was and it would take me ages to finish my lunch but these days I'm the fastest as I kind of hurry up to get it over and done with, have a cigarette after and go back to my desk. Today I just feel kind of dizzy and unable to concentrate, I feel like I'm going to faint or go crazy. I know you've all heard this before or even experienced it and I just hope it's only anxiety and nothing else. When I get a relief from m anxiety I feel like being re born, suddenly I'd feel happy and enjoy those moments but while I'm anxious I also get scared and frustrated and snappy. I just had to vent this out and hope that I'll be ok in a few minutes.

Hello Sany, When I read this I just had to comment to you. I understand your feelings quite well as my ocd started with panic attacks...scared, anxious feelings and crazy disturbing thoughts. This was many, many years ago when I was 35. I'd had a few times of mild anxiety before but never anything disabling like ocd. I went for a long time before I was diagnosed and really thought I was going insane. When I finally got on Zoloft, it was like the butterflies that constantly fluttered in my stomach just stopped. It was such a good feeling although it didn't stop the many rituals that I'd accumulated. It just eased things up a whole lot so I could function pretty well in everyday Life. It wasn't until after one on one Behavior therapy with a great psychologist that I was able to get release from these rituals and most of the bad thoughts. I would say 99% release. I have discontinued the zoloft and mostly am still ok. I have a few things bothering me since I had surgery this past summer but if it gets any worse I will go back on the zoloft. I never want to be like I was again! You take heart, take care of yourself and those sweet babes. Thanks for being here and being my friend. Hugz, Mary

Hey Sany,hope you get to feeling better soon,no doubt you will as this is ocd and is back and forth like that.I think the same way about people when I am all anxious,oh they think I am dumb or stupid or crazy.You know what though when people act like that with me or they say something wrong I dont give it much thought.So I dont think anything your doing is making them think that about you other then maybe she is shy or upset today.*huggs*

I know exactly how you are feeling.  It is your anxiety, it makes you feel like you are going to lose control/go crazy.  Rest assured, you will not lose it.  I am so sorry you are feeling this way, but it will pass.  I have been feeling like this for a few days now, it is a horrible feeling.  Hang in there.  Try to take some slow breaths and close your eyes and try to clear your mind.  I am here if you need to talk.  Your Friend, Jezz

I'm so sorry you're having to deal with this. This is just anxiety, and it will go away, just like it always has before. I know it's sucks right now, but the happy times we return soon, so just hang in there!
