My Anxiety

Hi,

For over a year now I have been suffering from nausea from the moment I wake up to the moment I go back to sleep, sometimes I can't even sleep because of it. It's awful, especially for someone who fears throwing up. This fear has stopped me from doing day-to-day activities and just being myself. Last year, summer, it got even worse to the point where I didn't want to leave the house or eat. I also experienced cold sweats and dizziness. Therefore I decided to see a doctor about it, I had numerous tests and I've been put on different medications. Until we realized that it was anxiety, I had been prescribed beta blockers and also started to see a therapist, and it has been helping for a while until I came close to my exams at University and I feel like death again, feeling like I'm going to throw up, got the hot and cold sweats, dizziness, headache, my heart playing up. you name it its there.

I don't know what else to try! I'm trying hard not to let this take over me but its honestly horrible and I feel like I'm going to die any day. Because of how serious it seems to me, I also worry that it may not be just anxiety, maybe I have something else like cancer or something! I try not to think too deep into it but I honestly don't know what else to do with myself.

I was wondering if any of you have any ideas of what I can try to get rid of this anxiety, or if in your opinion this is anxiety. What can I do! Please help me, I will try anything.


Kind regards,
Nat
