Hi Julie, Where do you live? Is it possible for you to look into subsidized health programs or free clinics where you can work with a doctor or therapist? The feelings you describe seem fairly intense and it may be something for you to consider to seek a therapist or even some mild medication to help you through your anxiety. You have been through a lot and I thank you for showing the courage to share your story and reaching out for support. Please post here as often as you need to. There is a lot of support and comfort offered here and as you work through the program you will learn a lot about yourself and how to manage some of the negative thought patterns you are experiencing. Good luck, Faryal, Health Educator

Hi,

Thanks for those kind words, but going to my doctor is not an option, if it was just me, no bills, family or anything I'm sure that it would be best for me to go to some centre for a while but such as life not possible. I hope that with people like you I can get on with my life and stop my feelings of helpleness, impending death and wanting to harm myself at times.

Still trying to figure out why I feel the way I do, I mean I can be happy chatty on the outside but feel really low on the inside and want to cry.

Hope to speak to you soon

Julie

Hi Julie

You have been through some very terrible things in your life. You are a survivor and show great courage by coming here and sharing your story with us. You are obviously strong willed and that will help you on this road..

Have you talked to your doctor about your feelings? Depression and anxiety often go hand in hand especially after trauma.

Hello Everyone,

My name is Julie and this is a big step for me. For as long as I can remember I have felt low but able to hide my feelings from family/friends and husband. I usually have my attacks when I am alone, I feel like my heart is going to race out of my chest, I feel dizzy and fight hard to keep a grip on reality. At times I feel like it's not really me as if I am in some dream and in a daze.

My story is nothing unusual, I was raped when I was 17 and have been sexually assualted several times, I have been attacked and tried to be dragged away and my sister tried several times to commite sucide befoe eventually being successful.

Even by writing this down I can feel myself becoming faint and my heart is racing. Still woke this morning having cried in my sleep.

Sorry to have laid this down just wanted to let you know where I am at.

Julie
