fear

Avatar f tn t know your spiritual background, but whatever it is, that is a good place to start talking to him about it. Speak to him about (your belief) of what happens after death and that it is a natural process of life. He is old enough to begin to understand these things and I think that if you take the mystery and fear out of it, he may not worry so much.
Avatar f tn It sounds like you're genuinely interested in your father's psychology. If you're wondering whether your father had a "fear" of penetrating you, perhaps the only way to find out would be to ask your father himself, and even then he's not likely to know the answer (let alone his therapist, if he ever had one). It seems likely that your father may have been afraid of or angry about other things, however, and that this is why he abused you by penetrating you digitally.
Avatar f tn I never planned for a c-section but I had one. I was terrified when I got the news that my daughters life was in danger because the cord was wrapped around her neck and would squeeze with every contraction. All I could think about was getting her out alive. I was awake for the entire surgery, but I got through it just fine. The recovery is worse than the actual surgery...it pregnant with my second baby now and I'm just as scared about giving birth as I was 5 years ago!
1318351 tn?1313381421 i kind of scared myself, told my daughter something was wrong she asked about the gummie bears and took them out of my purse and ate about 3 of them and believe it or not the dizziness passed the shade went up and i was fine. I am not saying that this is your situation i am just tossing out what happened to me and it worked and it actually made sense after i thought about it...i love my heart doc....i think he's seen everything.
Avatar n tn the sadness, the crying, all of it. what I also am experiencing is fear. not fear of anything specific, just a sense of fear throughout my mind and body. theres nothing I am afraid of. is just an unexplained fear of nothing, a symptom of deep depression?
Avatar f tn I agree with Gofio. Talk to a doc about this. A really good idea is to make notes of when these different feelings happen. Do this for about a week so then when you go see the pdoc you have something to show them versus just verbally explaining. And try to be as descriptive as possible. Do you sweat, are you fearful, are you agitated, do you wring your hands, do you cry, are you angry, are you frustrated, self critical, etc. and for how long.
Avatar m tn First, a doctor said that the heart beat and the feelings i had had were because of stress and tiredness, because i used to stay up at night in front of the computer, I used to stay up even till morning, especially in the summer time. Now, i don't usually go to bed later then 12:30, i try to eat better, exercise daily and all that. I do spend a fair amout of time in front of the computer though.
460185 tn?1326077772 I tend to withdraw instead. The fear of judgement and rejection is still there, along with the fears of being perceived as an attention-getter, even after being in this Forum since March 2008. Using "I" in so many sentences also bothers me. I've been feeling a sense of dread for over a week now. I feel disconnected and unfocused, my thoughts aren't clear and am unable to articulate what I want to say. Sometimes this happens before an emotional crash.
766068 tn?1237587833 But it means stepping out of your comfort zone. It is far from easy. Facing up to the things you fear most of all. But I always suggest you do it bit by bit. Not a mad dash or anything like that. That can set you back if you fall flat on your face. You go that little bit further each time. Adapting to the feelings it brings with it. Getting comfortable with the feelings. And trust me it will hit you hard at first. Enough to make you want to run back home.
Avatar m tn I have an addiction specalist i attend a free one to one session on the abuse i sufered. But everytime i talk about either one i seem to think about drugs or abuse the rest of the week.Is this me healing ? When im at my meetings i am happy to talk about either. Both my councolors think this is why i used drugs to numb out all those bad feelings. Now i feel again not always good but i do have feelings.
Avatar f tn At night when i think about it i often dont think about ways to die such as being hit by a car or death by illness, nor do i even think about the process of dying. What i mostly think about is disapearing from this world forever, being swallowed by infanite darkness, and being so easily forgotten by this ever-moving world. The fear of no longer existing haunts me in nights depriving me of sleep and giving me only uncontrollable shuddering in the darkness.Is there anyway to escape this fear?
Avatar f tn It is most likely just the wds talking. It does weird things to the mind. Makes you over think and stress. Do you know what you are afraid of?
363281 tn?1643235611 I just copied a list of all anxiety symptoms, you will be amazed.
925572 tn?1246540031 mixed feelings and i do not know what to do with myself ,,,,,,,,,but i am sick of talking and even people around me do not take it any more ,,why do i have to pout my depression upon someone,?
Avatar f tn Using is just a symptom of what is really going on with us. The fear of the unknown is scary but the fear of what the pills really do to us is by far worse. There isnt a happy ending if we continue to use. That is a guarantee..........
1564025 tn?1302034758 Writing is a way of expressing your feelings. It never was silly to express ones feelings through a different way. Not everyone can just talk it all out. Some people need a different way because as i said before holding in things is never good and it makes it hareder to deal with. I am glad to have helped you.
Avatar f tn If this sounds like some of the symptoms you have talk to your Dr and see if you can do some counseling. Take care of yourself with some of the tips given on websites like eating healthy, exercising, doing things that make you feel accomplished, and talking to friends. All helpful tips even if you do not have prenatal depression...
Avatar n tn After my 1st panic attack that was one of the symptoms I had to deal with for about 4-5 days. fortunately, it went away for awhile until I got my 2nd panic attack. As of right now im currently dealing with this symptom. I went out last night with friends(first time i go out since i started having panic attacks) and it totally freaked me out because everything looked so unreal, at one point I almost got a panic attack from being so freaked out.

Avatar f tn How about talking to your doctor about anxiety and OCD? That would be a logical place to start in order to make this better.
Avatar f tn What is going on with your romantic problems could be your mind telling you not to love again for fear of them leaving...even though your father didn't leave of his choice. medication might be need during the short term to give you some breathing room while you figure all this out. but that's up to you.
Avatar f tn so my boyfriend and I broke up a couple days ago and I just can't stop stressing about it...I'm due on July 10th and I'm scared to go thru the rest of my pregnancy alone especially labor :( I hate the thought of my baby girl not having a daddy.. I wish I could go back in time I feel so lonely :( im only 18...
Avatar f tn fear of pain and things going awry; excitement for obvious reasons; and guilt because this was a hard-earned pregnancy and I feel bad for allowing myself to consider any emotion save for joy. But when push comes to shove (pun intended), I am terrified of labor and delivery. Talk to any seasoned mom, and they will brag about enduring the most intense pain, days of never-ending labor and gruesome things like the dreaded episiotomy.
Avatar m tn How many people do you think that we could get to go Cold Turkey if we told them that it would most likely be the most trying and difficult thing that they ever attempt? I had a total parachute failure one time - - that was uncomfortable. I had a hat shot off my head by a very determined individual. That was uncomfortable. Dude tried to stick bayonet/knife through my throat one time. That was uncomfortable. The withdrawals? They were inconvenient at best. Fear will kill you.....
Avatar m tn Well I am not Gay but I have a cousin that is and she is very cool about answering all of my questions about it. We grew up together and I never knew she was gay so when she came out and told me I had a lot of questions. Well she told me that she has always known she was gay... she said she has never been attracted to men. She never had boyfriends and I always wondered why bcus she was always so pretty.
Avatar f tn My psychiatrist told me yesterday to stop watching the news and do things that keep my mind off of it and she said there is no way my thoughts have causes these bad happenings in the world. But, it is not enough, I think I am going to hell. I have even thought about talking with a priest or going to confession, it's that bad and I am not even a religious person. Anyone out there can help me? I am so frightened what will happen to me when I die.
