anxiety?
cad monkey 208 asked:
I have a problem with nervousness especially when visiting a doctor, my heart starts pounding very hard and my palms start sweating heavily and I usually have the urge of running out on my appointment. It gets worse when they monitor my blood pressure it usually reads dangerously high due to my nervous attacks. I have similar symptoms when I have to public speak or be interviewed for a job. Are these signs of anxiety? Does anybody have similar symptoms I have?

sounds like anxiety or maybe at worse some kind of social disorder. take to your dr about it, or write what u feel and send it to ur dr, have a freind go with u if that helps. there is meds and other ways to keep this undercontrol. i have similar issuses, but not to that degree, well i lie, i get stumble over words on my interviews so i never get hired becouse they think im slow. go fig.

you should see a counselor. they are available at church, through some jobs, schools, etc…this anxiety came from somewhere. when you sit down and talk with a counselor, they will help you get to the root of how this anxiety began and if you are willing to help yourself, the anxiety will be eliminated or totally diminished…it depends on how often you go and the amount of confidence you have in yourself. this can change, don’t fret. you have already made the first step by admitting that this is a problem for you. good luck!

All perfectly normal. Yeah, you get anxious, it’s part of what makes us human. If it bothers you that much, just rationally work this through. Tell yourself the truth; that nothing’s wrong.
Seriously
Everybody gets that. Most people, far worse at some point.
