Does anyone ever experience a uneasy feeling?
Hi!I was just wandering if any of you experience this uneasy feeling?It's like something is dragging me down.I feel it both mentally and physically.I just can't pinpoint what it is.It feels very uncomfortable.I could not even explain it to my DR. if I had to.Does anyone know what I'm talking about?Am I really losing my mind?Please someone help!
Have you tried listening to your cd that's called "feel better fast". It's in the last session of cd's. It's says on there "pinpointing the emotion & constructing the self dialogue to feel better fast!
I don't think your losing your mind. If your like me, you probably feel like no one understand's. That's how I am feeling. keep fighting! It's hard but coming on here and listening to my tapes helps alot.
Take care of yourself

Hi fear not,
I'm not sure if this is the feeling you are having or not but when upset or stressed or someone has dumped on me I get a real heavy feeling in the pit of my stomach and seems to overwhelm my body right up into that tightness across my chest.I have always said that my stomach feels like there's an old big wool sock in it. It's so hard as you said to describe it. It just gives a sense to me of doom, something bad is going to happen or has already happened as mentioned at the start of my post. I actually have it now and I realy despise it. I know I can control it now much better than before. It's all part of the body symptoms and how I/we react or think about something that triggers it. I started to feel it last night right after my husband brought something up about a topic I don't like to talk about. I was able to shut it off but it came back this morning and it will pass as soon as my mind is on something else. The forum and relaxation cd is great therapy for me and has always been.
Let me know if this is similar to the feelings you get.
Wishing all a good day!

Hi Monty's mom.
I know this feeling you are talking about.
It seems to be my worst physical symptom. I hate it, its always a pit in my stomach and it happens every day, numerous times. This has happened to me for years now. I try to stop it but its almost impossible.
I am currently taking prozac and every morning like clockwork I get this restless, nervous feeling in my stomach which I believe is an added side effect and this is another reason why meds suck! This was a symptom of my anxiety before and now its even worse! The prozac isin't even helping, is this a known fact for anxiety? This is my 2nd try with a drug and I am about to give up. I'm sick of putting my eggs in one basket- prescription drugs. I can't wait to get my program in the mail.
I liked your post and its good to know someone else has this stomach feeling.

Hi monty'smom!Yes that is somewhat the feeling.In my case I feel a hollow feeling like I'm lost and just existing.I feel despair.I feel like I'm dying and I don't know what from.It's like I have all these feelings and so many more and I don't know how to let them go.I'm a Christian so I do know better than to let these feelings take over.My family is drowning me with negativity.Every time I build myself up,we know how hard that is to do with this condition.I work very hard on it.My husband and daughters fill my mind,heart,and soul with severe negative hurtful things.I know that I myself cannot change them.I try and not let it get to me but my husband is very powerful!!He has all control over me because I have this anxiety problem.It's hard to have to kiss up to someone like that just so they don't throw you out of the house or threaten not to keep buying you're meds that you just can't stop cold turkey.I forgive him because that is what God wants but I really don't think he's going to change.He's been this way for 12 out of the 13 years that we've been married.Please I need all the prayers I can get.I have hope which is the most important thing.Please pray that I will know what love really feels like.It is the true healing.I'm in desperate need to feel loved.Take care and God bless!
Yes, I had it nearly everyday all day for over a month - I thought I was losing my mind! I also couldn't stop crying for no reason. I went to the dr. - was diagnosed with depression and generalized anxiety disorder. I was put on Lexapro and I feel that the medication has helped tremendously. I was pretty much housebound and didn't want to see anybody or talk to anybody. It was like all of a sudden I woke up one day and somebody had died, but nothing about my life had changed. I attribute my feeling this way to a lifetime of anxiety, then followed by severe depression. I always had problems with PMS, but then even that wouldn't go away. I have listened to a few of the tapes and they seem pretty good - a lot of work though. I am hoping to get off meds is why I ordered the program.

This is so hard to read and is just so very sad.
There are so many things going on within your life that sits so badly with me. I can't even put my thoughts in this post.
I will just say this: You MUST FEEL LOVE FOR YOURSELF, FROM INSIDE, YOU NEED TO WORK HARD ON SELF ESTEEM, SELF RESPECT, AND NOT LIVE IN FEAR EVERYDAY. ONLY THEN WILL YOU BEGIN TO FEEL BETTER.WHAT YOU ARE TELLING US IS THAT YOU ARE A VICTIM IN YOUR OWN HOME. READ YOUR WORDS AGAIN AND AGAIN AND BE HONEST WITH YOURSELF ABOUT HOW YOU FEEL WHEN YOU READ THEM.
Have you finished this program??
If you havn't you really need to and if you have then please do it again for your own sake.
We can't change others that's true but we can stop letting others mistreat us and scare us. I just can't get into this anymore than I have..I wish I could.
My Heart and many prayers for guidance in the right direction go out to you.
GOD BLESS & KEEP YOU SAFE

Hi fear out!! When i read your word's it's obveisse( I know I spell this wor wrong) to me that you are not treating well about the people who are closest to you and that is so sad. I think you must get strong and fight to feel well and then decide what to do with rest of your life. I've been in nearly the same situation I think. In one of my relationship my husband took control over me and wanted me to feel anxiety and week beacause then he have the power to run my life, he didn't treat me kind. I will pray for you and I hope you soon feel stronger so you can live a good life.

I've been getting that feeling every morning for about a month now. You've described it perfectly. When they first started, I was able to go out for a walk and that seemed to help. Now, I'm nervous when I go out for a walk. I still manage to sometimes, but not nearly as much as I used to. I hate feeling this way. I woke up this morning telling myself that I was going to do everything in my power to be happy, but 30 minutes into it, that "sock in the stomach" kicked in. I'm on tape 2 now. I hope that either it goes away, or I can learn to deal with it.
