I think I have anxiety issues. I will list some things to help you decide. I think alot about my future, what I'm going to do, what I'm going to become and sometimes I think to much about it and I realize I have no clue what I want to do and I'd cry because I think I am going to get nowhere in life, sometimes I get mad at myself for being three pounds over my normal weight. But I don't really know what anxiety attacks are which is the reason I am asking this question, to see if someone can explain to the fullest amount what they are. What the anxiety attacks are, uh, so famous people you know of that has them and how it's affecting their life (I only say famous because I would know them, as well. "Oh, my best bud Jimmy.." I wouldn't know him) I believe Alex Gaskarth has attacks. Uh, yea. Please fill me in, that'd be great! Thanks!
Anxiety attacks are physical.
Anxiety attacks are your body's reaction to a perceived threat.
They're brought on by external stimuli.
An anxiety attack is to anxiety as orgasm is to sex. During a panic attack, you feel an overwhelmingly intense surge of panic. You feel like you're losing control of yourself, like you're going to die or faint. The rapid heart palpitations, chest pain and difficulty breathing experienced during anxiety attacks makes some people think they're having a heart attack. Sudden hot or cold sensations are common. You feel like nothing can be real, or like you're watching a movie. You shake uncontrollably and feel sick to your stomach. Many people vomit.
There are lots of different types of anxiety disorders. You can decide better than I can which one fits you best.
Talking with a therapist can help you determine which anxiety disorder you have. I suffered with a debilitating anxiety disorder for the past three years of my life, but I started seeing a therapist and I haven't gotten an anxiety attack since.
Johnny Depp has an anxiety disorder. So do Oprah and Joan Rivers. You're definitely not alone.
I know how it feels to be anxious all the time or have a panic attack. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. It's great that you can admit you think you have some issues. That takes more courage than I had a couple of years ago.
I hope everything works out.
