Do I have anxiety disorder?!
Question: Do I have anxiety disorder?
- Sometimes I feel like people can read my mind and it makes change my thoughts.
- I always avoid assembly and crowded places, because my anxiety gets really bad and I start to shake.
- I always sit at the back of the bus because siting in front of people makes me nervous and when I constantly think of it, I start to shake.
- sometimes I feel like the bus is going to get bombed so I get off.
- I hyperventilate alot, I was even rushed to hospital at 11:00am coz I felt like I couldn't breath and the doctor checked me for any allergies and found None, so he said I was just hyperventilating.
- I feel like people are out to get me.
- I always wash the things I use to eat with or drink with again coz I just feel like their dirty.
- I feel like I'm been watched when I go out, so I avoid it. I even feel like I'm even being watched in my house.
- Most nights I feel like I'm going to die.
- Whenever I get ill, like stomach pains, chest pains etc I feel like I have a life threatening disease.
- I never open my bedroom curtains, I feel like people can see me and I don't like having the lights on coz I feel exposed and that people can see me.
- whenever I hear someone laugh, I always think they're laughing at me. I also feel like I smell or look bad when people look at me.
- I can get so anxious when I'm out that I start to feel like I'm breathing loudly and I try to control and by doing that I get really breathless.
- I constantly feel like my life is going to end soon, I feel like I'm not meant to live for long.
I hate feeling like this, this just started 2 years ago and it just seem to get worse. It affects my life and I find it so hard to talk to someone about it. I've tried countless of times to tell my mum the first time I told her she shouted at me, telling me it's not a joke because one of my aunties has schizophrenia. There are so many things I want to do but can't in end I just end up running away or avoiding things that will trigger my anxiety. I cry on my own and sometimes I just feel like ending my life. I really feel stupid and scared to tell my mum coz I feel like she would be ashamed. I just really wish I could get rid of this, I just wanna be a normal teenager. Do i have anxiety disorder or something else?

Oh yeah. And probably major depression. And...a healthy dose of paranoia, but the paranoia isn't of the schizophrenic variety, because you are open to the possibility that it's just your perception that people are critical or judging you.
Time to see a professional, before it gets even worse, or before you attempt suicide.

It sounds like you have a lot of anxiety. If I were you, I would print out this question and show it to your mum, or at least write down the things you've said here and show it to her.
Your mum might not understand how bad you are feeling and seeing it written down might help her to understand better.
It really does sound like you need to see a doctor for some relief of all this.
Hi, I have a lot of those symptoms too and understand what you're going through. I suffer from anxiety, paranoia and depression and it seems these are what u have as well. I know having these things can seem like a nightmare but they will go away in the end or at least become more managable, if u can, just think that and as positively as u can. It seems your mum got angry as she might be worried about you really and that's her way of responding to it, to shout at you. Maybe it's not the best thing to do to tell her what you feel and make her more worried. You could talk to someone else if there's someone you feel u can trust enough or if not, writing your negative thoughts and feelings in a diary might get some of the stress out of u and hopefully make you feel a bit better. Also, sounds like a weird solution but tidying your room and getting rid of clutter can help reduce ur stress and anxiety as an uncluttered and organised room can make for a more uncluttered and organised mind.
I think the thinking everything is a life threatening illness that u get is part of the anxiety, it makes u into a hypercondriac. I have it as well. There is nothing wrong with u and u aren't ill though, always remember it's the anxiety tricking your brain into thinking u have these serious illnesses. Ignore mean things people say to u, their problem not yours. The obsessive washing is OCD, which I suffer from too, ur mind thinks u have to clean everything obsessively. Remember that it's fine to wash them once only, they will be clean then. The hyperventilating could be panic attacks but nothing more serious.
Remember that no one is out to get you, people are probably concentrating on their own lives too much. Ignore what anyone says to put u down and if u want, try doing scary things so that you will get used to it more and think what's the worst that can happen. I know it's easier said than done though. You can always email me to talk to. All the best of luck. :) x
Wow, I felt that way a few times with a few of yor examples but I have'nt felt that way lately. Just know that you have to live your life, don't let it consome you. Also some of those things aren't just ridiculous they are impossible, I think it will wear off. If not see a doctor.
