This is so sad. I understand the anxiety part, but I was fortunate to get help when I needed it. As an adult I have been so blessed to find a church that takes care of its people, and we have Celebrate Recovery for everyone. We’ve had one program that is in need of help, but it’s tough to get someone to volunteer full time. All-in-all I’ve had a very positive experience. Our pastor is so very caring and will stop to pray with you right now. You seem that way too. Thanks for sharing this.
Answering the question you asked: i have a generalised anxiety disorder and if i have a panic attack the first thing i will do is calling someone who i am very close to like my parents, my sister or a good friend because talking exactly about what i am feeling helps me to put it into perspective.
if your looking for tips on how to cope with this madness, hear if from a person here with 2 mental disorders.... get sober at all costs, do something you like to do on a regular basis, work on your diet, and stop giving into pills and other falacies that are taught by social media..churches and media authorities will not save you
Sorry I'm late to this but as someone who has suffered with a decade long addiction until 8 months ago and severe anxiety (which led to the addiction) both since 15 years old I believe I can offer some insight here. Firstly, you need to listen to this song in the context of someone in withdrawal who is drug seeking. this is why at first his attitude towards the psychologist and pastor seems harsh, because it is. But when you feel that unwell which intensifies every negative thought, physical feeling and emotion you have the only thing you want is the drug that can make it stop. But as I learned myself, that only intensifies the cycle. You see the only person trying to help you as an enemy as in that moment they are the ones standing between you and the drug of choice, and thus relief of withdrawal. The anxiety of that withdrawal literally makes you act out and you would risk everything to quell those feelings. This is not to excuse those who commit horrific crimes in order to get their fix by victimising others, but it lends a little bit of reasoning to why those who feel they have nothing to lose do these things. Thankfully i never stooped that low but i have taken medication from people who needed it more than me for selfish purposes and am extremely regretful and embarrassed that I could even think about doing that. There has also been times where in a state of withdrawal I've thought about taking Heroin because I couldn't get my hands on opiates. I have deceptively told doctors I had chronic pain when i didn't in order to get a prescription, and i've also attempted suicide multiple times in order to make the withdrawals stop for good. Most of this caused by the anxiety of uncertainty of how I get out of that situation and seeing death as the easiest way. Also when you ask what happens to me when I have anxiety, a heck of a lot is to do with dopamine and overstimulated dopamine receptors which cause you to have a total lack of motivation to seek the things that would give a normal person the correct dopamine hit that reinforces that seeking behavior. Dopamine is often seen as a reward chemical but in nature it is not supposed to be, it's supposed to be the neurotransmitter that reinforces positive behavior like hunting or foraging for food. water, procreating, social bonding etc. the end result should be the reward and dopamine should be the motivator to get the end result. But our modern lives, overexposure to digital/social media, porn, junk food, gambling, drugs, even shopping all give us too much dopamine in the wrong context and throw everything else off sync causing addiction as you need to seek more and more to get the same level of reward. Addiction can be summed up like this: Addiction is a progressive narrowing of the things that bring you happiness, in all cases of addiction. If you engage in any of these behaviours too often without abstaining for a decent length of time and just being bored, you will become less and less entertained and happy. You need periods of unhappiness to maintain periods of happiness. You need periods of discomfort to feel comfort. Just like you need periods of disruption to feel peace. This is arguably one of the most important things people need to know who are unhappy and binge on media for example. This happens to everyone in some form. As for what happens to me, I tend to withdraw completely from society and seeing anyone else because my thoughts get in the way of actually doing anything. I convince myself i won't enjoy my time with others and don't have the motivation to do so, even though I know I do when I'm actually already with people. Yet every single day before I have to do anything socially (shopping, meeting friends, working, even things as trivial as going to the post box even or answering my front door, phone, even reading texts or seeing my family) I'm overcome with negative thoughts and I really don't understand how to stop it. I always listen to music when I'm outside but even that has become a trigger for anxiety more than it helps because I've done it for so long and accidentally conditioned myself, to this day. Im free of the drugs but im still riddled with anxiety that stems from PTSD from getting attacked so much as a teenager. Also sorry this is so long I went on a tangent, but it's imperative to know this to understand this song, and thus anxiety and addiction, even if you didn't know you were suffering from addiction.
Well when I am anxious I usually laugh to not cry about it others have it worse after all so yeah even if some be thinking I am a creep or some if I am laughing I am breaking apart inside I am trying to fix myself yet I mostly can’t still I am walking and living my life. Sometimes I count or just close my eyes to just focus on myself for once. To close off every stress or problems of my daily life
I've been threw alot n tryed therapy n they blamed me. For things that happened when I was 5 like I wad saposta know better. So I gave up. Never got on drugs I just learned to hide behind a smile n a happy personality Even tho I died inside over 30 yrs ago

I absolutely love the fact that you are so open and the fact that you don't judge a person trying to seek your help ... Amazing

Thanks for sharing this with us. There are many churches and ministers who are doing it right. Thanks 🙏🏾
Some drugs will help, but I find that sunshine, exercise, and a purpose go along with it.

HiRez and Jimmy Levy ♥️... great song... faith over fear...,👍
Drinking and yeah I know it’s not the best but that’s how I cope😑
