    It’s all because of the anxiety. I can’t do anything except sit there and freak out, wonder if it’ll get better, or if it’ll get worse. I hate my brain

    I'm so sorry to hear that! I fainted or had my blood pressure to drop way down since I got T, and it sucks :/
    Do you enjoy cooking? That was one of the first activities I noticed would distract me from my T. And maybe it would help you become hungrier? Just an idea ☺️
    But drinking water is very important and it will help you a lot, so pay attention to that, really!

    @RainbowCat cat is correct with everything said above ^^^^ distraction from the anxiety/T and plenty of water is always good :) plus salt helps POTS.

    Yo @PennyCat, I don't really like talking about it all that much, but I also suffer from something like this. The good news is, I haven't suffered an episode of it in a couple of years now, since me and the beast inside my ears came to an understanding.

    Also @RainbowCat and @Strawberryblonde are right, even if you're anxious, water is always good. In fact, I drink tonnes of the stuff when I'm feeling anxious; pretty much always makes me feel better. Also, just stop worrying so much. There are so many people here who have been through all this and made it through okay, stop thinking you're special and different, lol.

    @PennyCat what is your living situation girly? Are you by yourself? Are you close to family? Always good to be with or surround yourself with someone or family to get you through. I am so grateful not only to have my husband, but I have stayed with my parents for change of scenery and to just feel calm and safe. I really hope you have someone like that!

    There’s no advice I can give you that the others haven’t already given. I understand fully where you’re currently at. You do need to find some valuable distraction, I hope you feel better soon @PennyCat

    @Damocles I appreciate your responses. The tough love doesn’t usually work on me, I’m a bit too sensitive for it :P And I really wish I could stop worrying, but unfortunately I can’t, that’s why I’m doing an outpatient program right now. But I am trying! Maybe I’ll treat myself to a pizza on Friday :)

    @ErikaS Thankfully I’m not by myself, I’m at home with my parents, although I am alone a lot of the time. It really is nice to have that support, I’m glad we both have it!

    Woah-ho @PennyCat, you think this is me serving up TOUGH love?

    Let me tell you now, what you're receiving from me here, is LOVE love.

    Lord Almighty Jesus! Pray hope I don't have to dish out the TOUGH love at any point! https://bit.ly/3HFJ2CB
