? Melody asked:


I heard there are a few. Is it the drug itself or does something make you want to eat more?

How do you handle anxiety attacks?

August 30th, 2010

Freckles asked:


Lately, I have been having anxiety attacks a lot. I know the cause. My mind is on overload. I am thinking about stuff that needs to get done, appointments that need to made and kept and all kinds of stuff. For the past month I just can’t seem to clear my mind and I find myself unable to catch my breath, heart racing, light headed and sick to my stomach. I can’t be a bundle of nerves anymore.
What can I do?

Can daily anxiety get so bad you get migraines from it?

August 28th, 2010

polojesse asked:


I have been living with anxiety my whole life it seems. Over the last couple years it has caused me to have muscle tension/pain in my shoulders and now my neck as well. Since April I have headaches/migraines. I stopped working and some days I have to stay on my couch the whole day because of how the pain has gotten. I am getting health insurance next month but I just wanted to know if anyone has had this extreme physical pain from anxiety or is it possibly something else?

Left arm pain and numbness accompanying fast heart rate (anxiety and exercise)?

August 28th, 2010

Jake D asked:


On 4 occasions I have experienced this intensely. Usually when anxiety is occuring.. with a fast heart rate. Once it happened after I ran up 7 flights of stairs. I do not do any cardiovascular workouts so this is alot for me and causes a very fast heart rate.. When this occurs I can feel my artery by my shoulder pulsating very powerfully, there is also pain/discomfort in this area.. I went to the hospital after this happened the second time and was given a chest xray and a EKG and the results were negative. I am planning on seeing my doctor and having a stress test done with a cardiologist. In the mean time, does anyone have any idea what is causing this?? Thanks.
I am 22 years old..
my arms and legs fall asleep quite often and quite easily.. Poor circulation?? related?
