Feeling like im dying,tired,headaches,feeling sick

Hi.

I am worried as I think I have the same symptoms. I lay awake til the early hours of the morning as I feel sick every single night, although I never vomit. I am 13 years old and after reading some of the other posts, it made me cry thinking I might have this feeling stuck inside me for life.

Everyday I feel tired, headachy, dizzy, sickly, and I occasionaly get chest pains, and pains in the centre of my stomach - like a knotting feeling.

I am really worried, and I seem to feel so sad and stressed about it everyday. I try doing things to take my mind off it but its always at the back of my mind! If anyone can help me, I would be the most grateful person on the planet!

I am a healthy person with a balanced diet, but cant take this anymore! I am only 13 and already feel like giving up, going to sleep and never waking up again. It depresses me. Its not that I cant talk to anybody, its that I dont want to because they wouldnt understand. I guess that is why I am asking you guys, because I cannot take this anyomore.

Does anybody else feel the same way?

I am 22 and have gone through the same thing, and presently am, just talk to a person when you are experiencing it, than notice how you feel as you communicate. From shooting pain to headaches, chest pain, feeling sharp poking pains all over, weakness in arms and legs, also constantly think im haven a heart attack or stroke, i turned to myself this has been going on for 2 months, i say screww yu anxiety and it helps, take care.

Thank You soo much for your reply!

I decided to follow your advice, and forgot all about it! I still worry abit, and feel sickly most days - but i have learnt after a few months of it to let nature take its course..

I just wanted to thank you, it almost felt like a kind of emotional support, and I am starting to enjoy my life the way it is! I have the occasional cry about it and pains and tiredness, but I feel alot better emotionally.

Thank you, xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

It sounds like you have ME - you're having the same symptoms as my brother and he was diagnosed with this:

I feel the same, this seems endless im so scared, i feel like im alone and no one believes me. I don't know what to do with this, i was a normal person just a month ago and now i just feel like everyday im dying... I have a daughter and this has been hard on her too, because I'm scared to go out so we're at home all the time.. i'm on vacation right now, don't now what im going to do when I start classes on july.. 
I've started a treatment with alternative medicine because no regular dr seems to believe i have something, they do a lot of ECG's and glucose tests but everything comes up normal so they say it's just stress.. 
I've been having this episodes on a daily basis... my heart accelerating, shortness of breath, feeling like fainting, feeling like dying, death is iminent, headackes, numb arms (or heavy arms), dizzyness, sadness, i cry a lot all the time at it seems to calm me down because after i cry i feel better.. ive also have trouble sleeping and im scared all the time because i feel like im going to die

hello i'm melody and i'm 14...
recentley ive been quite stressed and ive had loads of sleep so i dont think its anything to do with that..
this morning i woke up and as i tried to lift my head up, i couldnt, these banging pains struck my head and i had no idea what happened but i layed back down i couldnt feel it anymore.. so i lifted my head again and the pains came back... i couldnt even roll around in my bed to get more comfortable cause the pains kept coming.. so i fell back to sleep and when i woke up the pains still came when i lifted my head... and that happened after i went back to sleep the 3rd and 4th time...
also, during the day i havent been able to turn my head slowly or i get the pains and sick feeling... i cant look to high up or i get the pains again... and when i cough or sneeze i get the pain again..
i have no idea what it is but ive had it for the last few days... mostly today:l
any help or ideas?
thankyou xxxxx

Hi,

I have to say a lot of what you & others on this thread have said all sound very familiar. It all sounds like stress, depression & anxiety which can make your body react in very strange ways without you even realising you are stressed, depressed or anxious. Even just worry about why you're feeliung this way can make you feel this way! It's a bit of a circle.

I can say this because I have experienced it myself & have come out the otherside. I'm not perfectly back to how I used to be but I have gone from nearly never leaving the house through fear of what was happening to me & thinking I was ill enough to die to going back to work, passing my driving test & having the most gorgeous daughter.

Please contact me if you wish to have someone you can talk to that understands what you're going through. You are not alone & sometimes just knowing that is a help. I'd hate to think of anyone going through what I have.

Blood tests for ferritin levels being low can help too. Ferritin is related to iron levels & a simple dose of iron tablets can make a difference too. Often GP's say if the ferritin levels are between the normal ranges then they won't do anything about it but there is a big difference between the lowest level & the highest level. Mine was at the lowest & is still low but because it's not under the recommended levels I'm no longer on tablets & am starting to feel under the weather & very tired again.

Best wishes to you & all.

Since jan 2011 I have been feeling sick or not right within my self, I more or less have the same sort of things as you guys. I started off feeling like I was going to flake out. then over 8 months, I 've hand chest like pains, pains in my legs especially at the top  of my legs where the groin area is, I feel like I'm going to be sick sometimes. I've had 2 lots of blood taken taken, well 6 atcually, went twice and took 3 of those little bottles on each time. I even had an angiogram, and a scan of my kidneys and testicles. But they can't find nothing wrong with me. My doctor tells me not to worry so much about my health and that it's most probably worrieing that's causeing it. But once again i've been woken up by what ever is going on inside of me and it's half past 4 on a sunday morning. I don't smoke or drink so it's neither of them, I use to walk alot but I can't manage to go to far now, because the soles of my feet ache. At this current moment in time I feel like being sick. I'm still no where near an answer.

I am a 22 year old male, I have also been feeling very sick and not myself. I have not always felt this way. I started feeling bad around 3 years ago.

I always feel tired and my head feels like its being sqeezed almost like tired muscles after a workout. It never mattered what my sleep pattern is. I actually started sleeping 8 hours a night for a whole month and did that until i felt like i couldnt hold my body up any longer. Then I tried sleeping for as long as I could and still no difference. I can sleep the whole day away and still sleep all night long. I tried vitamins and eating healthy foods, I stopped drinking sodas and just drank water. I still always feel like i am sick. My stomach feels like i want to throw up and my head always hurts and i am weak no matter what I do. I did quit smoking about 2 weeks ago and I immediately got really really sick. I then developed diahrea and had it for 8 day before i started throwing up. I felt like i was gonna die. I finally got enough strength, after lying in bed for two days without eating to get in the car and drive to the hospital. They gave me an IV and started pumping all kinds of stuff inside me. They ran blood tests and urine tests and they found nothing. I left there feeling alot better because they said i was dehydrated, so I guess its up to me. im just gonna try to drink as much water as i can and get as much excercise as i can and hopefully i get better. I dont have a very active lifestyle so Im gonna say thats probably why i feel bad. Any other suggestions from somebody more knowledgeable please help me.

Dear Becka, if you get this PLEASE write back! I dont know the reason you feel like you do, but I am feeling the SAME way! In 1994 I became pregnant and when I did I started to feel really Spacey like I was going to pass out, I became very fatigued, my whole body felt like it was asleep. I have had every test you can imagine and they are all ok. A lot of people that I talk to say it is all in my head, but I think it is physical. I have been feelin like this for 17 years now and I cant take it anymore. the more Doctos that I go to I keep thinking the next one will have the answer, but they Never do.

wow i have the same feeling i am 19 yrs old i had a bby thats 10 months n every since i had her. i feel sick everyday like im dying something feels wrong with me it scares me i get so bad i end up in the er but everytime blood tests come bck fine. but it feels like theres something really wrong.  i went to the doctors n he said its jus stress and aniexty but i dont bleive it...i feel like im goin crazy :( i get so weak n tired i push my self to get up..and do stuff n if i do too much i feel really sick :/

somebody give me some answers :/

People it is anxiety but it is NOT all in your head- allow me to explain: you get these symptoms bc you are tired, have an allergy to a food/weather, have an infection, have a nutrionional deficiency etc. So the INITIAL symptoms are not in your head, however then for some reason, some of us PANICK when we feel these symptoms. And the panick worsens them making u MORE anxious- so it become a vicisious CYCLE. Im sure there are lots of ppl out there who experience these symptoms but they just ignore them. AND THIS IS WHAT YOU NEED TO DO just keep ignoring them practice deep breathing, exercisr and eat right and u will be fine...you are NOT gonna die do not let you fear of the symptoms run your lives!!!

I had it, it goes away. The chest pain is probably just muscle tightness. I felt like I was dying when I was 22, but it did get better. The thing I learned to do was to remember the doctors had checked my heart and it was healthy, and whatever was causing the pain wasn't life threatening. The best advice I can give is to talk about it. Is there something you are not expressing? Many times when these symptoms appear it is because you are keeping a feeling inside.
