effects of nerves!!!

Girl-From-MarsGirl-From-Mars Posts: 2,822 Boards Guru
does anyone get physical symptoms of stress or nerves or something that stop them doing stuff?

whenever i get nervous about stuff i get this almighty sick horrible feeling in my stomach and i cant eat and sometimes even feel all hot and cold alternately. it gets so bad ive had to cancel loadsa stuff coz of it. before we went on our school trip to NY (which i had really been looking forward to) i got the whole ill thing and i was going round saying i didnt wanna go and if i hadnt paid so much i bet i would have cancelled. and once we had to go away for a week for bio, but i was so upset about it and dreading it i felt ill and stuff again, and i ended up not going for the first 2 days and had to fabricate a case of food poisoning for my docs certificate to try and get some of the money back.

and most recently was my trip to manchester <IMG alt="image" alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/frown.gif"&gt; lack of sleep didnt help much mind. so basically im stuck in boring old cornwall, and i cant go and see jj72 and i cant go and see mark!!!!!! <IMG alt="image" alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/frown.gif">(((((

does anyone know of any ways to override this annoying subconscious thing? i tried telling myself there was nothing to worry about on all of these occasions, did it work, no. it seems the only way of getting rid of it is to not do the thing thats causing it, even then it takes a good while to go away. i felt awful the first day of the NY trip because i went anyway. ive tried relaxation like deep breaths and stuff like that, listening to relaxing music, it doesnt really work at all. and im fed up with it!!!!!

help!

If you don't know where you're going, you'll probably end up somewhere else.

    i sometimes take a herbal remedy called kava kava (u can get in a health shop) it is really gud 4 anxiety.

    It basically relaxes u and puts u in a gud state of mind, like u have had a few drinks i spose.

    Mite b worth a try. <IMG alt="image" alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/smile.gif"&gt;

    Hypnosis is the easiest way to solve this one GFM.

    I could write you a process for it if you like, but far better to find a reputible hypnotherapist in your area, I can't imagine there'd be a shortage in Cornwall. Should take about three sessions unless there are complications.

    I think a bit of the good old TLC is what you need when you get here!!!!

    Don't take life seriously because you can't come out of it alive

    yeah drifter, how did you guess! well its a couple of days before, better start getting it into my system hadnt i!!

    j9 i get the distinct impression my dad wouldnt pay for a hypnotherapist, he seems somewhat wary of alternative therapies and always turns them into a big joke! apart from homeopathy, he used to use stuff for something or other and i did for my hayver, but i couldnt have mint so i gave up after a while, i hate fennel toothpaste!! i will look into it thugh, maybe after i get a job so i can afford it myself!

    i'll hold you to that mark! <IMG alt="image" alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/smile.gif"&gt;

    Some GPs will refer patients to a qualified hypnotherapist. I can't remember, what's your GP like?

    lol drifter, just a little bit off track! <IMG alt="image" alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/smile.gif"&gt;

    j9 i dont seem to have a personal GP, i just go to anyone in the practice thats available, well within a few, i went to a woman when i went about the pill, and i went to this man when i had tonsilitis but i didnt get on with him at all, coz he just didnt bother mentioning the fact i should use other protection while i was taking them and for 7 days after coz i was on the pill, and to actually find out if they DID have an effect, i had to ask him 3 or 4 times to get any kind of answer out of him.

    and i went to anotehr male one when i had this mouth ulcer/lumpy thign under my tongue and hes the only one ever to give me something for my ulcers which i get loads of. but the incompetant antibiotic guy dismissed all my stress related comments i tried to bring up while i was there and just passed e off as a hypochondriac i think.

    might go and see the nice mouth ulcer guy about it sometime!
