stress and physical problems
Posted: 04-06-08 02:10am

I internalize all my anger, I am in like a constant panic attack and a panic state, I really feel I am slowly killing myself, I get pains all over my body and have these bumps, is it possible it could be a blood clot?

If I go on like this and dont get it treated will I eventually kill myself? I was reading on-line how Panic Disorders are tied to cardio vascular disease so I really think it is only a matter of time until I get a heart attack or a stroke


And I have no health Insurance and I had to go to the hospital a few months ago because of a panic attack and I got a $3,000 bill out of that, I called some local clinics and none of them are accepting new patients and I called some psychologists and they want like $75-$120 an hour for a session, and I really dont want to spend that money

Will I eventually kill myself unless I do something?

I would have to say yes in my opinion. Take into consideration that when you are serverly anxious, you whole body tends to tense up using evey muscle you have to spare. Not including the fact of trumendous headaches also.
Now listen, you probably are young and have a lifetime ahead of you. You have a future and goals to make and complete. There is help out there. Some GP's will actually treat you if you tell them you can not afford physiactric help. I am one of the lucky ones. I say no blood clot, so get that out of you mind unless a doctor diagnoses you with one. Anxiety is an all over body problem. Not just you mind. Your mind runs you whole body and soul. If I were you, I would find a GP (or if you have one) and tell your story. I can not see a GP not helping a patient that may need medications. Please, you life is worth more then you will ever know. There are peeps out there that love you. And we are here to do everything we can possibilly do to keep you here with us. You are part of our family now. And we care about you and what happens to you, remember that! Keep us up to date please with your life and what is happening.

With Love,
Carrie

I appologize. But, now you are getting into questions that I know I can not personally answer. I think you need to find someone who can look and talk to you. It is only my opinion but, I think you are driving yourself sick. We are all here to help you. But, that is what doctors are for. To help find a cause and a treatment.

Stress and aniexty will really do a lot to your body...it will eat into your body because your body is not meant to handle that kind of stress and anexity. I think that you should be calling more places around and describing your situation, I mean it can't hurt. I am sure that some places are willing to work with you to help you because that is what they are there for. If you don't get the help that you need then you are going to have some issues with your health. I mean right now I am battling with depression and anexity and I am seeking help which is what I need. They might want to put me on medication for it which I really don't want but I have to get the help that I need. Really just try to keep calling places because I am sure that there are places out there that are willing to help you and work with you. I don't think that you have a blood clot I just think right now that your body is taking over and is just leading you to think these things..leading you to think the worst but unless you are seen by a doctor and diagnosed don't worry about it because that is the kind of things that will eventually end up killing you. So please seek help soon...do the best you can and just try to control your mind the best that you can because what you think really affects your whole entire body.

Im not gonna lie there have been times where i thought i would be dead in a matter of minutes... if you can, imagine there is a hole in your throat and its gushing blood filling up your lungs... I have horrible anxiety/panic attacks that border on hallucinations... Im 19 and my parents are just now getting divorced, all my friends moved away for college and there has never been a more stressful time for me in my life... I get constant pains in my chest and back and im always worrying about something... I too am afraid my condition will end up killing me, because every time i have a panic attack i can feel my pulse through my skull...
