Default I think I am going insane, Please HELP!?

I have been feeling really really wierd lately. I am struggling with anxiety mixed with depression. I feel really out of it, like dizzy, floating along and just plain wierd. I have been taking nerve pills called atarax whenever I feel a panic attack or just really nervous before it starts. But for the past few days, I feel terrified that I am going insane, I am terrified of dying. I am now afraid to lay down at night to go to sleep because I fear a panic attack and think that I hear things. Am I just overreacting or is there something serious here? Plus, my chest has been very painful, I feel like someone is pushing on it. Is it gas, something simple? I just need answers, I need reassurance that I'm okay. I know no one is probally a doctor, but please help me. I need somethings to think or do to help me relax. I am 20 years old and a female by the way, if that helps explain the chest problems or whatever else. Thanks everyone!!!

this is anxiety and alot of people go thru it,its the way you feel when you have an anxiety attack.also,Atarax is not the best med.for you,sounds like.talk to your doctor and get something else.like xanax or klonopin.and go talk to a counselor to help you get your feelings out,talk to your friends,parents,anyone.

have your doctor check your thyroid,it can do this to you.i had it.you're not going insane,even if it feels like it sometime.all your symptoms sound like anxiety.i'm a nurse.

You have just perfectly described all of the symptoms of a panic attack: chest pain, dizzy, fear or losing control or going crazy, fear of heart attack etc etc.



The best solution for panic disorder is to get on an antidepressant because they are not addictive and they PREVENT the attacks.



Where as atarax or xanax and the like treat the attack after it started..and they are addictive. Most ppl take an anti depressant and have the xanax as a back up which is seldom ever needed. Also some counselling. So get back to the fam doc and tell him you want comprhensive treatment for panic disorder and get started on it.



You are not going crazy; panic disorder just makes you feel like you are. You need some seratonin!

It sounds like you just have really bad anxiety. I suffer from this to, and even when theres nothing wrong, I get these butterflies in my stomach that start to grow over nothing. I try to cope with things like watching tv or movies, playing video games, hanging out with friends. Unfortunately when those things end the anxiety comes back almost imediately. Its a horrible feeling. And then I get the same anxiety you do over things like why my chest hurts or not breathing if I go to sleep. I am far from crazy lol. But I think you need to talk to your doctor about a different medication. Some medications can make symptoms worse. There are other things that may be able to help you better.

Will add more later just wanted to say something now try not to worry.........Everything you ve said has an explanation...add later gotta go now....



To add a spiritual dimension to this,the pain in your chest could be your heart chakra opening if it is in the middle of your chest,if on left hand side it could be just anxiety,its seems for some reason your sensitive at the moment,and picking alot of stuff up,if you hear noises this could be spirit try not to worry they cant harm you,I hear them alot also,

You could be becoming psychic .....sorry thought this was religion and spirituality

sounds like u have panic disorder. to put your mind at ease go to the dr and get tests done and eliminate some of the things your fearing. get a complete blood work up done. go to a heart dr get and echo, ekg done, get a chest x-ray done and a head ct. it will help to diganose any problems. after u get results that noting is wrong u can deal easier with your anxiety and panic less bc youll know for sure you are healthy. also ask for xanax for your nerves. take it with caution bc its addicting but works great to calm. good luck!
