Constant Anxiety


21 years ago 0 12 logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo 0
Hi--I am new to this site. I came across it because I have ben struggling with GAD for a year now. At first it was all panic attacks & I ended up in countless ERs. Now I have constant anxiety that lasts much longer than a typical attack. I am certain the doctors have missed something. My family & friends think I am nuts. At times, so do I. I have always been well in control & this all scares me b/c right now I cant even identiofy why I am anxious yet I have felt faint, had my heart race, been dizzy, had bubble-like feeling in chest--(not all at once)--since 6am today. I try to tell myself it is nothing, but that is so hard. I do not want to take my ativan b/c it makes me drowsy & I have to work 3 more hours. Does anyone else have these constant feelings that do not go away after 10-30 mins? And that change constantly?
