Crisis Anxiety Relief

<< Am I going to get my period soon(Symptoms included)?  Seizures OR Panic Attacks? How Can You Really Tell The Difference? >>

Like 24 hours

Now as a teen I was diagnosed with Generalized Anxiety disorder.

Well I’ve been real nervous and jumpy lately, my stomach has been quezy, and I’ve been dizzy. I’ve been on edge a lot in the last 2 days. And I think I’ve had several small anxiety attacks.

I was fine for a few years but suddenly I’ve been panicky a lot more lately (I’m in my mid 20s now and haven’t been on medication for it in years)

I don’t want to go back to a psychiatrist or therapist and get put back on medicine. I don’t like putting that in my system.

What else can I do is or is finally to the point where I need to see a doc?

My symptoms include: (On and off ofcourse then I go from this to Anxiety attack feeling, to calm for a bit and then it starts all over again. It started last night)

Feelings of apprehension or dread
Trouble concentrating
Feeling tense and jumpy
Irritability
Restlessness
Pounding heart
Sweating
Stomach upset or dizziness
Muscle tension
Headaches
Fatigue

Basically it goes from just being anxious to a full blown anxiety attack, to me being calm (for a short time) and back to being anxious

All of the above are anxiety symptoms….I know this I delt with it before.

And i keep going from being nervous and jumpy to some of the basic Anxiety attack symptoms (not all of these but I have experienced most of them)

Surge of overwhelming panic
Feeling like you’re going to pass out
Hot flashes or chills
Trembling or shaking
Nausea or stomach cramps
Feeling of losing control
Feeling like my heart skips a beat.

How can I get this under control for no I just need to relax.. I’m not even sure what triggered it this time. (Normally I know)

(I also have IBS irratable bowel syndrome and that and anxiety go hand in hand so that make it worse because I’m dealing with both issues at the same time, the more anxious I get the worse the IBS gets)
I don’t see a doctor for anxiety anymore because I got it under control years ago but the last few months its started up again.

And I really don’t want to take any medicines for it
