Anxiety and Death **UPDATE** Post #12

[cassidy22]

Have you considered therapy or grief counseling? You might also be dealing with unresolved emotions from loss in your life. You may not need to jump to meds, but having someone to talk to who is trained in understanding what you are going through (and able to know if you would benefit from meds or not) We can't diagnose you here, but having someone to talk to that might help point you in to either why you are having these anxieties, or how you can divert those energies into something beneficial.

I get this weird "feelings" or hunches too. Quite often, actually. Some of us just do and some don't. We all have our set of characteristics and talents etc that makes us unique.
Just a quick interesting story: my mom visited her uncle at work many years ago. He was working for an airline and he showed her a new Boeing the airline just bought, took her into the plane etc. She told me the moment she stepped into the plane she knew that it was going to crash. She told her uncle, who dismissed it, it was a brand new plane!
It crashed. First flight.
Getting these feelings are not easy to deal with, especially when you have an experience like my mom did...
But hang in there, stay strong. You are not alone.

Thanks guys.
If this is a "gift" I reckon Im happy to have it.

Maybe people do medicate our gifts because we are scared of them and dont know how to control them

It might be a gift,but it sounds like a panic attack. My husband started having them and he described an overwhelming feeling that he was going to die. I would go to the doctor. My husband doesn't take any medication, just avoided things that would trigger it and mental excercises. While he was in the hospital an aide told him she started having them after her daughter was in a horrible car crash.

Your body reacts to stress, and everyones reaction is different.
