Hi, im kind of scared right now and i dont know whats happening
Hey, im not sure if i belong here in this group. I dont have a diagnosis yet, but im scared. The past few days have been very hectic and confusing. I feel like i have a lot of energy, my mind is racing a million miles an hour. My brain is literally buzzing and my pulse has been unusually fast. Sometimes it feels good, like i have so many ideas and can plan and fo so many things at once. Other times it feels like a lot of energy but impossible to focus on any one thing. No matter when i wake up, i cant fall asleep until 4:30/5am because i feel like i can be so productive (but i dont actually get anything done). At first i thought the energy was a good thing, but it feels unsettling and unstable now. I dont know where it came from or whats going on
Hi @Mal7711. This probably goes without saying, but I think it's important to try and calm your mind. I wouldn't try to think too much about anything as thinking about too much all at once can drive anyone crazy. Also, try to practice proper breathing excercises. You can maybe find some good breathing excercise videos to watch online. Talking to people you're close with and whom you'd feel comfortable with is important to, as just having any positive social interactions with people can go a long way in alleviating anxieties. Lastly, I think it's important to reassure to yourself that even though you may not have all the answers now, everything will be alright. Easier said than done, but it truly will help improve your quality of life. And surrounding ourselves with positivity and exposing ourselves to healthy things in life can go a long way in helping us to retain that optimism. Ultimately, hope is like the sun. If you only believe it when you see it, then you'll never make it through the night. Hope this helps! Hang in there buddy. And remember, you're not alone.
So the reason why I'm here is because I've been going through a lot recently not only in my life but in my relationship too and begin a lot of suggestions on therapy and I'm finding that now I'm taking the direction the steps in that direction and where do I go from here?
