When your anxiety triggers the most.

Post Reply New Topic

Most of my anxiety happens when I can't communicate what I want to properly. Which happens rarely, so I rarely get anxious.

GA

Being around unfamiliar people in unfamiliar places.

So far no strong majority for Communication as of 12:25 AM PDT on 8/11/2005.
They need 70% or more to win, instead of 2/3 majority.

But so, I am still the only one to select Returning home. Do any of you ever have that feeling you just want to get back to your house about an hour or more away? The chance to lie down, pet your pets, get in the tub, or anything? It's like you can think about it, but it builds up and you really need to get there and then feel unconfortable. As if you aren't gonna make it.

And then for me, comes the body reactions which in turn cause health panic and yowza! Aggrivated anxiety to near panic. I think I mentioned this on top already. I can control it as a passenger, but I wouldn't know anything about it as a driver though. That would give the connection that I don't drive yet.

UGHHHH!! !! !

I'm not sure how I'd answer this. I feel like I'm most anxious when I'm at home, which isn't one of the choices. I am too scared to leave the house because so many people have given me the impression there's nothing worth doing outside of it. In the rare occasions that I decide to leave, I sometimes become emotionally neutral; often I hide being anxious and depressed because I have no reason to show it to anyone.

When I went to Commuity College this past school year, I often hated going home because I did not want to go back there; my parents ruined life there for me and all being at home does is add salt to the wound. Worse yet, I'm getting led to believe that the real world is no better because all the "helpful" people are stupid and useless and don't actually give a fu--they don't really care about my problems.

Oh, who am I kidding, I guess I'm anxious everywhere (including here). So how would I answer the poll question if I'm only supposed to pick one?

I am most anxious near big crowds or atleast where there are alot of loud noises.

Lots of people in a small room is one of the personal nightmares for me.

Crowded Elevators...

My anxiety comes when I am trying to communicate.

health reasons mainly at the moment
and stuff like placement - i guess that would be communication

I pick up really bizzarre worries - when i first went to dr about them he said did I hear voices and referred me 2 a psychiatrist! (but it is just anxiety not schizophrenia)

I figured out to face up 2 my fears and I cant be anxious forever when I was 18. But now it just means my anxiety jumps quicker from one topic 2 the next not goes away completely

Generally speaking, I am afraid of meeting people I know on the street, because then I have to look at them/into their eyes, greet them and (sometimes) have a short conversation.

Nowadays, I do not know why, I am worried that I might get some terminal illness and die young.

Let's see after 12 days. 38 votes, not too shabby. Thanks everyone.

It seems that communication, though a majority, isn't a dominant majority here since it is less than half the votes. Yet I'm still the only one who picked returning home. I know there are many people who freak out while on the road (carsickness, or something) so I feel it as a small surprise or something.

I thought the hypochondria choice would do better since that can really aggravate anxiety to the limits.

But all in all, it looks pretty fair.

Ciao, folks.

Ack, I put down communication, cos that's where big misunderstandings happen. However, for me anxiety is more from the big things like majour uni stuff piling up on me, as well as from little things like sitting in a room with other people in it until their noise and movement drives me to the point of insanity!
