just another day

Another day goes by and you hope for the best at not having a panic or anxiety attack. Woops you feel one coming one and try to relax and do breathing exercises but that doesn't work. As my daughter is taking her afternoon nap it hit me. The racing heart, nervousness, jumpy and very anxious. I tried everything to get it to stop. Finally after an hour of this nastiness it slowly started to subside. By the time my daughter woke up from her nap it had mostly gone away. I was still a little shaky and sick to my stomach. I have days that are so nasty with my nerves that I can't even eat. If I try and force myself to eat something I feel like I'm gonna be sick. I used to weigh a good 120, now I am down to 90 and feel just miserable. I get sickof the comments made to me that i'm to skinny, I look anorexic, oh and my daughters fathers favorite "YOU HAVE NO BUTT". My meds helped with my weight gain in the past but since I had my daughter last year I lost everything and i'm trying so hard to gain the weight back. When my weight was up I felt good and didn't hardley have any panic or anxiety attacks. Since my weight is down to low it's like an everyday nightmare. Some attacks are so bad my meds don't help at all. Has anyone else had this problem with the weight and all.

Yes, I lost alot of weight last year because I could hardly stomach any food. I too got sick of the skinny comments, but I think people thought they were being kind! I try to eat small amounts more frequently, seems to work.

~I've personally had the same problem but the opposite direction. I've gained alot of weight b/c of meds, I'm getting to the point where my attacks are so bad and last so long that the medication isn't helping and I just feel absolutely sick to my stomach...for me no matter how queasy I am, my solution to make it feel better is to put food in it. The only suggestion I can make to you is to make peace with your body, so what if you "have no butt" I'm sure you have beautiful hair. Try to focus on something you can love about yourself one thing at a time, I think you'll see that slowly you'll get more comfortable with yourself and the panic will subside. Best of luck to you....perhaps you could have an "affair" with chocolate cake, seems to keep my butt large and in charge :zzz
