Bad anxiety
I have really bad anxiety…I’m 26 years old now and I never been in relationship or went on a date because of the anxiety.. I didn’t go to highschool because I was having really bad anxiety like I my stomach would felt so sick and I felt nauseous and wanted to vomit and I had to go to toilet to cry it out.. now Im close with a guy and that feeling is there again. We livein different country and he wants to fly to my country to see me but that makes me anxious its been days like I woke up in the morning and feeling all of that, my stomach hurts bad, my heart beats fast, and I want to vomit, I even lost appetite, how do I make myself calm?
is there anything you enjoy doing or hobbies you used to that helped free your mind? I sometimes listen to asmr sound effects to chill me out.
I write out what's bothering me, I used to go for walks but now I stop and play a game and feel better. I hope you'll find a method that works for you soon
So sorry about your anxiety, your emotion is reacting to the new thoughts of feelings around it. You need some therapy to put your thoughts on control. For example you may need to focus some of your thoughts towards your job or something else.
Maybe you could focus on what you want your life to look like in a year or two from now and slowly let your mind adjust to the changes.
It sounds really exhausting to deal with those physical symptoms every day. Anxiety can make your body react in such intense ways, and that can be really frightening. I'm really glad you shared what you're going through here—you shouldn't have to face it alone.
I would write I would journal I would go for a walk and talk to people dating is not easy but if you make it work it will and you do better and you be able to work things out with the man your getting close to.
