Having something accessible like a heartrate meter. Use your pointer and middle finger and feel on the underside of the side of your chin. Find a beat and that is your pulse, while walking you can count how many times that beats in 30 seconds multiply by 2 and that is your heart rate.
If true or false, Then false.
Well, as someone who lives with an anxiety disorder, these are some of the things I deal with on a daily basis:
- stuttering (it gets worse the more panicked I get)
- Panic attacks. These are not necessarily obvious, but it really depends on the person. They can include, inability to catch your breath, shaking/trembling/teeth chattering, feeling closed in, being frozen/unable to move, heart hammering, being unable to think straight, etc. etc.)
- inability to catch your breath (while sometimes this only occurs during legit panic attacks, for me it tends to happen more often. As I really forget to breathe in thinking about everything else.)
- overthinking (seriously, the "what ifs" are endless. "The 'what ifs' will kill me")
- fear of decision making (Making decisions terrifies me. "What if i make the wrong decision?" "what if everyone hates me then?")
- paranoia ("who's behind me?" "what are they talking about?" "They hate me?" sitting with my back to an open space & or a door terrifies me!)
- overwhelmed ("SO MUCH TO DO!" "I CANT DO THIS!" "NOT ENOUGH TIME!")
- wishing you could just be normal and not worry!
but the truth is EVERYONE WORRIES, PANICS, IS AFRAID SOMETIMES! its just that people like me have more acute and constant terrors and anxieties.
& WHAT IS NORMAL ANYWAY?
i hope this helped! :)
Answer:
Anyone can get PTSD at any age. This includes war veterans and survivors of physical and sexual assault, abuse, accidents, disasters and many other traumatic events. Not everyone with PTSD has been through a dangerous event. Some people get PTSD after a friend or family member experiences danger or harm. You can go to therapy, or workout, and do other physical aspects to forget the pain the person went through.
