Answer 1

omg i have this too in fact i was about to post a question similar to that. Im 16 and i feel this on edge anxious feeling throughout the day too, it started a couple months ago then returned like a week ago. My stomach always feels like its sinking a little and i feel a slight shakiness through me, kinda panicky like you said, and its totally taking away my appetite. You should see what is troubling you. For me, I cant quite distinguish it but it may be that im socially anxious or insecure and am having very low self-esteem. Try progressive muscle relaxation before you go to bed, I find that calms me down, or if you cant fall asleep take something like Valerian, an herbal supplement, it works very well. Also try abdominal breathing, practice it everyday if you are not used to it, and you will get the hang of it and it will help you. Try to stop negative thinking that come across your mind because they can be contributing to your anxiety. Try to get out of your head and just observe your thoughts, dont focus on your anxiety, be passive and recognize that they are only thoughts. Yes teen years can be tough, i know how you feel. Hope you feel better soon.

Yes you should consult a physician and or psychiatrist. Sounds like anxiety disorder. For sleep please read this. It saved my sanity!!

Hello, just wanted to let you know of a miracle pill that puts you to sleep, available over the counter, is actually very very beneficial for your health, the health of your brain and is only 3 bucks!! I had trouble falling asleep for years. I would lay in bed, and think and think and think for hours before I could fall asleep. It was literally driving me crazy!! I had tried every over the counter sleeping pill on the market and nothing helped. I turned to Nyquil and that did the trick. I had been drinking Nyquil almost every night to go to sleep until I stumbled upon this miracle sanity saving nutritional supplement named MELATONIN. And you can buy it at any GNC health food store. I advocate GNC because the melatonin they use goes through 85 different quality checks before its bottled. Buy the sublingual melatonin. The kind that dissolves underneath your tongue tastes like cherries and it’s good for you!! If you have any questions before you buy it the sales associate at GNC should be able to answer any questions you have. It comes in 1 mg, I take 2 right before bed. The only side effects are weird dreams for the first two nights if any at all. Should be taken at regular bedtimes in the evening.
God Bless
P.S. after you try it and it works don’t forget to tell others about it. You could be saving someone else’s Sanity

Answer 3

I used to get anxiety and panic too. Doctors prescribed Xanax for me, but I knew that drugs are not the answer; they only mask the symptom. I now have a degree in Ayuvedic medicine, and I cured myself of panic and anxiety without drugs of any kind.

Ayurveda teaches that anxiety is caused by "Excess Vata," a certain type of energy. Read the book "Vital Energy" by Dr. David Simon for more info on this. Ask a bookstore to order it for you. As I said, I cured myself of severe anxiety with Ayurveda.

The thing that helped me the most:
Listen to a CD of chanting monks, Enya, or any music you find very relaxing. Lie down, close your eyes, and listen on headphones. While you're doing that, take long, slow deep breaths, through your nose. Your breathing is very important. This sounds so simple, but I'm telling you, those chanting monks brought me down from many an attack!! They're the best!! Enya too.

While you're lying there doing the deep breathing and listening to the relaxing music, tell yourself: "Its (the feeling or symptom) going away, the feeling is passing, let it pass, you're fine, you're fine, everything is fine..." It is very important what you say to yourself; you have to learn to talk yourself down out of that state.

To prevent anxiety:
Completely eliminate all sugar and caffeine from your diet. This is rule number one.
Exercise regularly, yoga is great for anxiety.
Eat regularly, warm, nourishing foods like soups, oatmeal, etc. Forget salads and ice cream, all cold stuff. Do not drink cold beverages either. Drink hot herbal tea.
There is alot more info on dietary recommendations in the book, and other lifestyle recommendations as well.

You can overcome it; I had it very, very bad, and I'm fine now. Ayurvedic treatment is excellent for anxiety. Read Dr. Simon's book and take my advice, you will overcome it. Don't let anybody tell you you need Xanax or any other drug; you don't need it. You can email me if you want.

Answer 4

See a doctor hun! I had the same feelings when I was about 17 and it turned out to be anxiety attacks! I was put on Lorazepam and it actually helped. I ended up "growing" out of it and you might too! Just bring this up to your doctor or mother. Dont put it off hun, the sooner the better! Good luck!!

Answer 5

See a doctor!!!!! You could be having panic attacks,or depression.
Both of these can cause sleep loss. You really should see a doctor,and if they put you on medication, make sure you ask for one that does not make you gain weight.

Answer 6

some people go through these things with puberty and this may be a contributing factor but see a doctor and check signals with him. some antidepressants may be in order.i am not a doctor and can advise you no further.good luck.
