Does depression make you feel like your dying?!


Question: Does depression make you feel like your dying?
Why do I always feel like I'm going to die? I have a lot of stress & I have depression & axiety.

Answers:

Medication is not always the answer, especially self-medicating with a potent and potentially harmful drug.

The feeling of impending doom, or like you're going to die, is a very big symptom of anxiety. I would ask you to see your doctor about these symptoms, especially if they are troubling you. In the mean time, I would try any relaxation techniques that you have been taught, such as deep breathing and distraction, when you get this feeling.

I am a medical student in the UK.



Hi Aaron. Yes, it absolutely can. I had a really bad panic attack last night, and i thought for sure i was having a heart attack. Stress can do a lot of damage to your body. I get really bad chest pains, and stomach pains from it. It can cause headaches also. I have felt like i was dying many times ( even went to the ER a couple times for it ). You have to find something that helps relieve it, or it can cause you to have a lot of other health issues. Take care.
