I’m so freaking stressed out. help

I’m so stressed out. I can never calm myself down at all. I feel constant stress and aggravation. My whole body is tense and it feels like it’s so extreme that it’s in my bones. Whenever I’ve started to calm down, I start to feel panicked. It’s like my mind won’t let me calm down.
I’ve tried telling my mom, but she’s completely insensitive and doesn’t understand at all. She thinks I can just “change my thinking” and stop feeling it. I’ve tried that and it does absolutely nothing.

Every day I feel scared and aggressive. I feel bad because I lash out at my parents a lot when they start raising their voice or picking on me, but it’s not I purpose and I feel bad because I know I should be respectful, but it’s really completely involuntary. I feel angry and like someone is going to try to kill me all the time. I also feel bad because my energy is effecting my dog and making her not listen to me because of my weakness. I need help, but I don’t know what to do. I feel broken.

    Go get somebody, tell them everything you have in your mind whether its been bothering you or not and take a really warm bath. Then go to sleep!

    You could try practicing "mindfullness", see if it helps you cope with your trouble of controlling your anxiety.

    This is me to a T! I'm 22 and I get anxious about what I do or say in fear of getting lectured. My whole body and mind tenses up like crazy. If I am happy one moment I have a fear and superstition that something will go wrong. I'm 90% of the time right and I break down. I definitely know what you're talking about.

    • Same! I can almost predict when something bad is going to happen. Once when I had to leave the house with my parents, I literally knew my cat was going to die, and when we got home he had been hit by a car. I can just sense when the wrong circumstances are lining up. I also stress a lot though about things that never actually happen. I have a constant fear that one day when I’m left home alone, a gang of guys are going to break in and rape me. Whenever my parents leave I either have to get drunk, carry around a knife, or hide under something to feel better.

    Exercising really hard will alleviate most of that. Having sex or masturbating can help. I drink too that helps but causes more problems if done in excess. I don't fuck with benzo's, too many people I know have died from them. Some people smoke pot, I used to but that gives me panic attacks in and of itself.

    I'm like this a lot too. I woke up today anxious as all get out. I don't even want to get out of bed but I have to force myself too.

    I'm sorry you are going through this. I hope you feel better soon. Hang in there.

        No i dont own any stocks in pharma companies.
        I have used benzos for five years on and off, and i have great faith in their ability.
        I have over thousand clonazepams stashed with me at this time.
