Sorry what was the question?

Oh...yes of course,if she left you and went back thats obviously going to affect you,it would most people.Sleep loss will be a main one and it sucks probably the most Razz

yeah, its not like we split up... its just she lives in brasil and i live in england.. we met here in england like 3 years ago.. and been together for nearly 2 years... and this year in june i went to brasil for nearly 3 months... and spending every day, 24 hours for 3 months.. and then being back home and waking up and she isnot there... it really has F**ked me up alot... i never had my anxiety problems once when i was with her in brasil.. but now where not together... i just am going thru so so so much... I HATE the feeling of feeling like i am not in control... like the drowsnyness and dreamyish feelings... just hate it so much

aha!!!mykul,i have exactly the same symptoms as u.sounds 2 me like u have GAD (generalised anxiety disorder) as opposed 2 social phobia.i should be able 2 help u a lil bit.the whole part about thinking there's something's wrong with u & thinkin u're mental or thinkin weird disturbing thoughts is normal,so don't worry about it all. the dreaminess is also normal,partly because of lack of sleep & also due 2 the anxiety.it can make u feel detached from reality completely,even tho u can acknowledge everything around u.with struggling 2 sleep,well,do some exercise for start.playing sport rly helps (releasing endorphines etc. & making u phsyically tired). also,if ur mum/dad doesn't already kno u have anxiety,tell them.it helps just having ur parents kno if no1 else,cos they will (hopefully) support u.ask ur mum/dad 2 get u sum st. john's wort (natural relief from depression) & also ask them 2 get some kind of natural anxiolytic remedy like seredin (a mixture of kava kava,valerian,passion flower & sum other funky stuff,that all help anxiety & brighten ur mood) or just get kava kava (its the most effective 1) seredin u can only buy online i think,but kava kava u can probably get in a health store.if u have a chinese herbal medicine kinda store near u go there as well,as they're natural remedies r quite gd.

wow that took a while,i just hope it helps.if u more questions about dealing with anxiety (not social anxiety,as i don't have that) then add me 2 msn.my email address is quicksilvershadow@hotmail.com

yeah reading that really has helped me.. Well made me feel better in my self knowing that it really is just anxiety.. And yeah i have heard of the St john wartz herbal thing... Which i will get soon.. My friend actually uses it and he has told me it is alittle expensive.. But if it helps me.. then yeah i would pay what ever hehe... Also, my mum does know about my anxiety problem.. and she suffers also from it, along with some of her brothers and sisters... so i defently think my anxiety is herreditary.. which sucks lol, i just wish i didnt have it... But i have delt with it once... i just gotta find it in my self to over come it again...
But thanks for the reply! also i added ya on to my msn... so i will probably speak to ya soon on there =))

I realised that after i was diagnosed with anxiety, I start to worry about my health too. Like if i would contract any illness like heart attacks and so on ..and again it add to my pile of worries ..
