anxious when alone

I have a fear of being alone too. I try very hard to avoid being home alone..drive alone..go to the store alone etc. Where I live we have a free crisis hotline that has operators 24 hours a day. You can call them for anythig mental health related. When I'm alone and panicking and it gets really bad, I call them and it helps me feel not so alone. You could try finding out if the area you live in has a similar program.

I'm 22 weeks pregnant and I have been having really uneasy feelings when I'm out in public. I feel really anxious that someone is going to harm me and I won't be able to get away or protect myself like I would if I wasn't pregnant. It's gotten to the point I don't like going places alone. I know this is strange but I'm wondering if anyone else feeling this way?

Are you anxious when you talk ?

I just came back from another HIV test and wonder if I should be calm or worried. I am really anxious! Comments welcome.

You are not alone in having these symptoms. Personally, I gave up on trying to read a book, write narratives, work on geneology, do research, tackle big projects, etc. After putting the postage stamps on the left side of the envelope several times, I now make a point of getting them on the right side of the envelope. I take extra care when driving so I do not pass my turn-off (still happens sometimes). I try to pay attention and I write everything down.

I always feel like people are talking about me and get anxious is there something wrong with me and then I have other days where I get really angry and start yelling? do I need meds?

It's always hard when we have become anxious about something to really get a good picture of it. You are hyper focused on your heart beat-- there is a really good chance it is not doing what you think it is doing. Some people have palpitations and anxiety can cause this.

Does anyone else feel anxious after not having had an ultrasound for a while? I had my last ultrasound at 8 weeks (I'm about 10 weeks now), and everything looked good, but I don't think I'll have another until I'm 12 weeks. I just wish I could see the baby more often and confirm everything's going well. I'm not having many symptoms so that makes me more anxious too.

I lost my dad to lung cancer 8 years ago and the thought of me ever getting cancer scares me. it drives me insane. when i was little i used to always think i would die at the age of 40 because thats when my dad passed away. i remember waking up in the middle of the night telling my mom please dont die. i have major problems, and fears. i am constantly thinking about what disease i might have at the moment. i was just recently dizzy 24.7 i had to get an mri done which showed nothing is wrong.

I feel the same way n I'm 35 weeks always home alone just waiting to have him so frustrating

I am 33 weeks tomorrow and feel the same way! But I also realize I better get as much rest and enjoy the alone time with my husband as I can now! Haha This is our first and I can't wait to finally meet her though!

Does anyone have a panic attack when they are alone and you're in unfamiliar surroundings? You want to run but there's no where to run. I've tried meditation but it doesn't work like i had hoped. I try to stay focus but i feel like i'm out of my body.

s more of a random 1 night stand sort of thing, make sure the condom goes on when the clothing goes off, not just wait until actual penetration to put it on. just proper condom use alone greatly reduces your risk of a std. also if you are this anxiety ridden about std's, you should only be giving and receiving protected oral sex too if you aren't aware of a partners std status. hope that helps!

So I'm 39+1 with my first, and I'm getting really anxious and fed up. I want my Princess here so much! I've been sat at home on maternity leave for 4 weeks, and I don't want to wait any longer. I've been getting a few pains, but nothing significant. No show or anything, and starting to get really upset now. Any idea how to calm myself down? Thanks guys.

It comes and goes, but i find if iam am focused on other things, its not there. When i am alone and dwelling here it comes. Thankfully that is not too often. Just hang in there, this disease and the meds to tx it are more than any one person should have to deal with.

I am so anxious today. It is day 8. Is that normal? I feel like I am going to turn inside out. I am a little dizzy too ( aside from my normal dizzy).

It's So scary.

relax and take advantage of your next few weeksto gi to movies, out to dinner,see friends, enjy time alone with your partner, etc and get as much sleep as possible... in 4 short weeks, your life's gonna change forever (not bad, just changed forever) enjoy the kast few weeks.

Lately I have become very anxious whenever I am left alone, and I am even scared sometimes to be left alone. I still live at home, but I am fairly independent and usually enjoy time alone. I have dealt with depression before and I am scared that I am going to go through it again. I also cry a lot more than normal, and I am not a very big cryer. I am just overly emotional and very anxious. Any ideas on how to stop these feelings/behaviors?

If you were in a relationship for 20 years and then went straight into this one, I think you're regretting a possibility you may never have really "found" yourself as an individual. As cheesy as it sounds, try being alone for a while and comfortable with yourself. We're all terrified to be alone at times, but we have to know we're safe and can survive that. Make a list of things you want to do on your own and start there.

Thank you all for writing back and it is good to know I am not alone...Good Luck and Blessings to all. I am happy for you Bill that you beat this.WOW. Can you tell me about all you went through? Also what does a biopsy feel like?
