I think I have extreme anxiety

[wobblywobbly]

For about a year now I've been in blind panic every day over something even so little as have I burned dinner.

I do not have panic attacks but I get panic rushes? Like at the school run I feel a rush of panic I don't have full blown panic attacks but I get panicked and it's like a rush over my entire body.

I feel nervous all the time like I'm looking over my shoulder for something bad to happen.

I struggle to ever feel happy in the moment or at ease

I panic over small or big things to the point I can't sleep, barely eat

Is there anything that will honestly help me. I know it's all in my head and nothing is the end of the world but for the half an hour- hour of fixation I have on that thing that's thrown me into panic I cannot escape it. It's only getting worse as I get older

The only tablets/"medication"(?) I take is the contraceptive pill and from what I've seen this doesn't cause this kind of anxiety.

My social skills are gone almost I can just manage but everyone in my street can tell I'm a mess. They keep me at arms distance for how awkward I am.
I really really miss before I felt like this and was so socially awkward I couldn't even make friends/ keep friends.

Have you spoken to your doctor about antidepressants or changing them if you're on them already?
I also find propranolol helps with those really stressy times too.
You shouldn't be living at this heightened state incessantly, you definitely need some more support.
Good luck

Sorry, just seen you're not on a/d's

Do speak to your dr.
Thyroid issues, low iron or low B12 can all make you feel like this, as can Peri menopause. I’m not saying it’s any of those things, you could just have developed anxiety, but the dr should always rule out other easily treatable causes too.
