Serious ANXIETY/PANIC disorder. Im 14. HELPP

I've been stressing out a lot this year.

Which caused me to believe that i had 'scabies' when I woke up one morning to feel as if tiny bugs were crawling all over me. I thought i was gonna go insane. I kept "self-diagnosing' myself with one infection after another, after another. This happened for about a month. After i started to feel more calm due to like tree oil baths, creams, etc. the crawling sensations stopped. I noticed that anytime i felt irritated, annoyed, mad, sad, stressed i start to feel a little bit of crawling/tingly sensations and pinpricks, chills, goosebumps, rashes, and trouble breathing. Even people yelling or even my own thoughts gives me those feelings for no reason.

I also get very light headed, dizzy and lose my train of thought very easily now. AND 3 people in my family do have LUPUS (all females: my 2 aunts and my cousins).

I've been starting to freak out about every single thing lately. (ex: what are all these lines on my palms?!? how come it looks like this?!)



I'm not a person for meds. I just want to know how i can control this. I also suffer from agoraphobia as well.

and paresthesia.

I used to feel the same way. Please take this into consideration. It worked for me, although I am not you.

I had overwhelming anxiety. It turned out to be my use of Splenda. Yup Splenda. How could something that taste so good, be so bad?

I like to say sucralose, not Splenda, because that is what Splenda is. And it is in a lot of stuff. Sadly, the package doesn't have to say Splenda or diet to have sucralose in it. You have to read labels. So, you might be using it and don't even know it!

Sucralose is poison. It ruined five years of my life. I had a laundry list of medical problems while taking it, including overwhelming anxiety, depression, mood swings, insomnia, gastrointestinal issues and more.

Go ahead, google: anxiety splenda or anxiety sucralose or insomnia splenda or insomnia sucralose

The slogan, "Made from sugar..." is very misleading. Splenda might be made from sugar, but it is far from sugar. The resulting chemical is an organochloride (chlorocarbon). Organochlorides are typically poisons.

carbon monoxide - made from oxygen so its like a breath of fresh air

I was 14 when my anxiety started. I'm not gonna lie. Its been a bumpy road, but it does get better! Every person that has Anxiety/Panic has different symptoms and deals with it in there own way. Sometimes my throat would feel like it was closing, my limbs would feel tingly, alot of things was going on. There is a book that I recently found that helped me ALOT. "Panic to Power" by Lucinda Bassett. For real, you should check it out. Good luck. BTW. It does get better!

u might not likemeds.....but sounds like you should take them for a while.............

First, talk to your parents. Tell them what is happening, if you're afraid to tell them then tell a teacher or your doctor, because your anxiety sounds pretty severe. You also could have something underlying which is causing the crawly sensation, probably not scabies but it could be something else. Who knows, but you need to tell someone.

Seek professional help, you don't have to take meds if you don't want to, and sometimes talking to someone who is impartial is great help. You also will get a real diagnosis instead of a self made one.

For control, you already seem to know your triggers, which can help. Maybe you need some behavioral therapy, it's really hard to tell.
