anxiety control freak
Can anyone explain to me about panic attacks and anxiety issues?
I have a friend who i have been talking to on YM and we were talking very friendly these past 2 weeks and she said she enjoyed talking to me , but all of a sudden (and this has happened 3-4 times before) she just all of a sudden freaks out by something i say and shuts down her email account and blocks me from her YM .
She has told me about her anxiety and depression and how she suffers from it from time to time and she just shut off communication with me again , told me that i was a creep who had no respect for women and that i was trying to control and manipulate her, and i dont think this is at all warrented behaviour as i have been very friendly with her these past 2 weeks.
And she has , i think blocked me from her YM account and her email , yet again for the 4 th time, i do believe in 3 months.
Thanks.
Can anyone explain what exactly causes anxiety and depression and paranoia like this?
My partner has been suffering from anxiety and panick attacks for the past five years that caused him to become agoraphobic…Its usually a shock or something that has happened that brings them on even if its not something she thinks about constantly it may be something that lies subconscieously in her mind and triggers this state.
My partner used to shut everyone out and when he was really bad would stay in the bedroom for days with bad panick attacks and tell everyone to stay away.
he found it hard to have ppl round-even the doctor and still does,it can just come on likeyou say and they just want to shut all communication down and be left alone.
My partner is better than he was-he isnt bedridden from it anymore,the only way he got better was by NOT taking the tablets(they made matters worse),setting goals to confront his fears and prove to himself there was nothing to panick about.
It may be something you said,but most likeley is not if she suffers in the same way my partner did.
Just be understanding and supportive,send an email saying you are there for her if she needs help just contact you…you appreciate she may want a bit of spaceto herself so you wont pester her…you’ll just reply when she contacts first.
Mood swings and lack of communication are a common effect of this condition so I wouldnt take it personally.
Good Luck I know how hard it is.
