I think a lot of people really have no clue how emotional pain like anxiety, panic attacks, depression, ect truly effects the body.
I had the panic attack to end all panic attacks last weekend and even though I was in the arms of my boyfriend I could not calm down. The shaking, trauma and pain went deep into my stomach and still hasnt cleared up. I feel so exhausted and held back as I can barely eat, and when I do actually feel hungry (sharp hunger pain which is different than regular stress pain. Ive had too much experience with stomach issues.) I get "full" so quickly im eating maybe a quarter of what I should be.
I always wonder what its like to be "normal".
To not get freaked out by new surroundings or even just starting to panic for no real reason. Its like my body just responds to a certain amount of stress and its tactic for handling a lot of it is to just shut down and spike my stomach acid levels.
Im still trying to recover and while its more comfortable at home it doesnt just "go away".
Its very disconcerning to know that I will have this the rest of my life..

I for one certainly do know how anxiety takes its toll on the body, especially when it comes to eating habits, at 20 years of age i've yet to break the 60kg mark, no matter how much progress I make when i eat, exersize.. all it takes is one episode to drag me back to square one..
I went to my first fur meet last weekend, wanted to try and make some friends and get involved in the community a little more.. end result was hiding away 90% of the time and going for drives around the block to compose myself before i freaked out, i made little contacts and am still drained from it all days later, but i'm determined to bite the bullit at the next one, no matter how daunting it is.
It is indeed exhausting, i couldn't agree more, but you do eventually get back up again, and even if its for a little while, you try and enjoy every moment you can.
Being normal is boring from what i hear, being you is always better :p Even if we are a little broken, its what makes us who we are, and if we can try and put our pieces back together bit by bit, we may just reach that dim light at the end of the tunnel one day. Untill then, and i know its alot easier said than done, have hope and feel better soon :)

Thank you for your comment it is very true you learn to cope and not every day is going to be a struggle.
Mainly im just tired of feeling so sick! Lol!
Baby steps. Trying to test the water before submerging yourself in a new environment is always so hard but It can also be rewarding. i just have to discover my triggers and know when to pop a pill amd walk away for a few minutes to calm down. Thats the hard part. @@
