I think I am going insane, Please HELP!?!


Question:

I think I am going insane, Please HELP!?

I have been feeling really really wierd lately. I am struggling with anxiety mixed with depression. I feel really out of it, like dizzy, floating along and just plain wierd. I have been taking nerve pills called atarax whenever I feel a panic attack or just really nervous before it starts. But for the past few days, I feel terrified that I am going insane, I am terrified of dying. I am now afraid to lay down at night to go to sleep because I fear a panic attack and think that I hear things. Am I just overreacting or is there something serious here? Plus, my chest has been very painful, I feel like someone is pushing on it. Is it gas, something simple? I just need answers, I need reassurance that I'm okay. I know no one is probally a doctor, but please help me. I need somethings to think or do to help me relax. I am 20 years old and a female by the way, if that helps explain the chest problems or whatever else. Thanks everyone!!!

My vision seems a little blurry too at times, kinda like my eyes are really tired, but I am not tired at all.


Answers:

this is anxiety and alot of people go thru it,its the way you feel when you have an anxiety attack.also,Atarax is not the best med.for you,sounds like.talk to your doctor and get something else.like xanax or klonopin.and go talk to a counselor to help you get your feelings out,talk to your friends,parents,anyone.
have your doctor check your thyroid,it can do this to you.i had it.you're not going insane,even if it feels like it sometime.all your symptoms sound like anxiety.i'm a nurse.
