A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

this isnt a relationship problem but i need help. i think i have an anxiety disorder or something. then i panic and have a mild panic atrack. its really weird and extremely hard to explain in words, but ill try. okay so sometimes ill feel like its hard to breathe and like i have to take a big breath of air but it doesnt help, the feeling doesnt go away. so i tryto make the feeling go away but it doesnt. i just have to force myself to breathe right. and im certain that its not an actual breathing disorder, ive had it checked before. and i feel dizzy sometimes and i panic and just close my eyes and freak out. also i have a phobia of throwing up. anytime i feel slightly sick i freak out and try to do whatever i can to be okay. this past year i have been avoiding going to my friends houses because im afraid i might be sick there. its horrible and i cant overcome it. its ruining my life. im only 15 and i just want to have a normal teenage life. if someone has any idea what this could be or how

i can overcome it please let me know. all answers are greatly appreciated.

i have been to a therapist before and they were making no progress so i had to stop going because it was a waste of money and it wasnt helping me. i cant talk to anyone i know bexause i'm just not comfortable. there is a lot of stress in my life and i keep my feelings bottled up because i just dont think other people should have to know about or deal with my problems. i trust only one person, my wonderful boyfriend but i still cannot seem to open up about my problems. i dont understand why, and i truely want to tell someone but i dont want to just oprn up and say i have an anxiety disorder due to all the stressful situations in my life, and then talk about them. i dont know, i'm makng progress i guess. thank you for the answer, i truely appreciate it.
