Hi,I am Dr. Alexander H. Sheppe (Psychiatrist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
How do you know if you are suffering from an anxiety problem? In the past few days I have been feeling very anxious whenever i go for a ride longer than ten minutes. In the car I have trouble swallowing, a dry mouth, my breath becomes shallow, and i get jittery. I am eighteen and seven months ago I was hospitalized from dehydration. It all started because i was stressed out from a new job and school. I have to take a long 8 hour road trip and i've been stressing about it for the past couple of weeks. Does this have anything to do with my anxiety or do i have nothing to fear?
These can be symptoms of anxiety occurring in specific situation (if this is not present in any other situation). It can occur because of stress. If the symptoms persists, increases in severity or frequency or if present in multiple situations, consult a psychiatrist.
