hi
I'm 15 year-old girl , always thinkin of death. I'm all day long anxious and scared. Today while I was in the bus I was thinking if I get a heart attack and I die in front of people (even though I'm healthy) so I wanted to throw up.I got off the bus then after a while I felt dizziness and that made me feel more anxious and scared. After all that I started having annoying feelings and moods and that made me more and more anxious. Moreover I always jump to the worst conclusion which is I'm dying. Do I have anxiety disorder or what? I hope your answers can help me.

Im no shrink, but having been a teenage girl, I would be inclined to say you are going through hormonal freakout. on the surface it sounds like panic attacks and anxiety disorder with mild hypochondria, but it may be due to hormonal fluctuations brought on by puberty. Im kinda going through the same thing backwards, because of pre-menopause...those hormones will mess with your head, for sure... if u feel at all suicidal or have feelings of hurting yourself, i highly recommend you see a health care professional and get evaluated, in case there is another cause....im sure you are asking folks here because you are afraid someone might think you are crazy, but its not crazy, and you shouldnt be afraid to ask for help from the people who care about you.

There are only two kinds of things that can happen to you in this world; those you can have an effect on, and those which you cannot. It is a waste of time to worry about things you cannot change. Live your life taking the normal precautions and don't waste time being afraid. If you cannot follow these directions, get yourself some help so that dwelling on fear doesn't become a habit which it hard to break. And always remember that there are people out here who love you just the way you are. So don't worry!

Hi sweetie,
I think you do have a major anxiety or panic disorder. Your symptoms sound a lot like mine. I would get a headache at 15 years old and swear I had a brain tumor!
Please talk to your parents or another adult you trust about this. You should seek help from a psychiatrist. He/she can give you medication that WILL make you feel a lot less anxious. Good luck!!!!

Talk to yur guidance counselor. Yur school district probably has a psychologist on staff who will meet with you confidentialy. Sounds like Generalized anxiety d/o but only a licensed psychiatrist can diagnose. Good Luck!

Yes, it's anxiety disorder. Google it or go to the site that someone else mentioned and check out the symptoms listed against what you are experiencing. It's treatable with medication and/or cognitive behavior therapy. Good luck.

hmmm you are 15, lots of social/peer pressure in your life i preassume. I really hope you can go see a doctor or atleast talk to you mom if you are close to her? If not then talk to someone you are really close to and maybe they can help you out and help you figure out why you think of dying all the time?
goodluck..
