    Default Currently having a huge anxiety attack. -Scared, HELP!

    I don't know what's wrong with me. Had like really soft stool as well as d* today. I drank last night but not a lot! Just 2 glasses of wine and then beer. I feel nauseous and started dry heaving in the bathroom bc I thought I was gonna v*. And the worst thing is, I'm at work. I don't know what's going on. I felt n* this morning, went to the br and felt so much better. I **thought** I was hungry so I had lunch and as soon as I was done eating I felt n*. Does this sound like the beginning of a sv*? I really hope not!!! My bf is visiting from out of state tonight until Monday so thatd suck.

    I need some encouragement/opinions right now.

    When I was having bad anxiety a few weeks ago I felt the same and was heaving etc to I really convinced myself it was it but of course as soon as I left work that day and got home I felt fine and symptoms totally passed, its amazing what anxiety can do to u! Any other time ive had a sv over the years it's basically really feeling ill for half an hour then it happens or happens in the night

    I think you are probably fine. Whenever my stomach remotely hurts or I am super anxious, I will heave too - which everyone says is even worse than V* itself. I think I almost make myself heave because it is a control thing, if I'm going to V* I want to control it and I want it to be on my terms. Keep us posted, I hope you are feeling better.

    If you were hungry during this, that's a great sign you don't have an SV. And I agree with the others - dry heaving can be a result of extreme anxiety. I've had it before but not been ill. To be honest, it doesn't get much worse than dry heaving! I think it is worse than v* too as you don't get the relief that comes with v*. If you can cope with dry heaving you can cope with anything. Keep being brave x

    Perhaps the mixing of two different types of alcohol didn't agree with you and food further aggravated it. Glad you're doing better now.
