I am sure I am experiencing anxiety..or is it just stress?

Bme
09/17/09

I think i may be experiencing anxiety? but not too sure if it's just stress. I do tend to worry alot and sometimes I have heart palpitations.

 

I am sure this is caused from my dad sometimes he gets angry alot and fights with my mum and I and he is very controlling and really puts me down, I think I may have developed anxiety from this..and  get very upset and stressed. I don't socialize much, just at work and fear to talk in groups..I really want to be more confident and positive but find it very hard..

do u think this is anxiety?

Thank you for your question and welcome to AnxietyConnection.com.

 

It sounds as if your life is stressful. I am not a medical professional, and even if I was, it would be impossible to diagnose anxiety based on your post. This would need to be done after a face to face meeting with your doctor.

 

You may find talking with a therapist or counselor about your life situation can help you. Therapy or counseling often can help to increase self-esteem and help you better manage stress in your life.

 

I would suggest talking with your doctor and asking for a referral to a therapist in your area.
