cognitive behavioral therapy
I am a 20 year old male with almost all of the symptoms described in this thread. I wake up sick and anxious each morning and it usually passes or gets better by mid day. I also had a brain tumor removed when I was 14. I don't want to alarm aanybody, I'm simply trying to help you guys, butI recommend getting an MRI if you don't find an answer. I was born with this tumor and it took doctors 14 years to find it. CLEARLY, they don't know everything. I really hope none of you have any tumors, I just want you guys to know your not alone in this struggle. Keep on truckin

No doubt, mornings are usually a very hectic time for all of us (getting ready for work, multitasking, trying to get to work on time). I have also experienced some of your symptoms in the morning like dizziness, nausea, but also my left arm getting numb. I too had to take off from work when feeling this way because there was no way I could drive with the dizziness. I have a very stressfull life in addition to the morning rush. Im a mom of 2 small children, work full time and my husband offers no support, physical or emotional. I've talked to family and friends and they've offered many helpful suggestions. The first was to watch what I eat. I was a daily soda drinker so I cut that out, which eliminated my caffeine intake. It took some getting used to, but I can notice I'm less jittery during the day and sleep better at night. I never used to eat breakfast, now I make sure to eat a high protein breakfast. Lastly, I've learned to manage my time better. I make a mental plan the day before about how my morning will go and I adhere to that. For me it was always the little things around the house that bothered me - dishes in the sink, loads of laundry yet to be washed, clutter. And I would try to deal with these things during the morning rush! I've learned to put some of these things off until the weekend and that's when I'll tackle them. It also helps when you have someone to help take the load off of your shoulders. I'm still learning how to focus on what needs to be done and limit unnecessary worry. I have a long way to go, but there is light at the end of the tunnel. You can get through this, you're stronger than you think. I tell myself that all the time. Wish you the best.
have any one tried st johns wort ? been told it works for anxiety and nausea thank you all marwil
morning after morning after morning, same script, feel dizzy, need to get in the shower, don't feel like doing anything but laying in bed, have to fight this every day, meditate every morning, just feel so weak and tired. i think depression has really kicked in now. back to the books!!! tolle always helps me refocus my thinking but i have to get there in the morning first.
have you ever considered therapy? i think it's much better than drugs...
Hi. Has anyone noticed morning anxiety after routine change? We went camping last weekend, and I woke up with anxiety everyday. We came home Sunday and I was off Monday. I still had some anxiety when I woke up. Thanks.

thought i was a complete all alone with my problem just to read others trying to cope is so helpful my life has been a mmess since my husband passed 5 years ago ive always been bit of a nervy person but have worked hard and coped with lots of probs but this one of anxiety nausea and depression has floored me perhaps this forum can help thank you all god bless
Thank you so much for the information and the support. I'm seeing my dr next week and am going to talk about a lot of things!
Xanax is prescribed on an "as needed" basis, and this is why your panic escalates before this has had time to work. I would speak to your doctor about something like Klonopin that you take everyday and it controls our anxiety and panic attacks 24/7. Also, morning nausea can be a symptom of GERD (acid reflux), try chewing a couple of Tums or other antacid and if it helps then you may want to speak to your doctor about medication for GERD. CBT therapy is to teach you how not to panic over something seriously being wrong with the slightest symptom, it re-trains us on how we think and react to things and has proven to be very beneficial. I hope this helps, I've been there so I do understand and we're always here for you!
Another day and managing to keep the panic at bay. I have a little of the nausea that I often have in the mornings and depending on the intensity of that as well as other often unknown factors I am sometimes able to keep the anxiety from becoming full blown panic. It's always just beneath the surface though and I feel like if I let me guard down it could take hold again. Fortunately today is one of the days I'm able to keep it from getting there - I can't always do this.
Sounds like me! It does tend to go then come back. Have you tried CBT?
Thank you so much. I've battled anxiety most of my life. It just seems to come and go over the years and for me at least it reappears in a little different form each time, taking on new and different characteristics. Also my latest battle with panic/anxiety has by far been the most difficult to live with and to overcome.
Don't be envious! It's quite a battle. The SSRI's help quite a bit. I know lots of people on them....actually more than half of America is probably on them. lol. I also take xanax on a as needed basis. Which isn't often now. Message me anytime you need someone to talk too. Some people are anti-medicine, but if it helps your quality of life then go for it. I was having panic attacks *still do every once in a while* and got on Zoloft. But there is a variety of meds out there.
Thanks for the quick response. I have prayed about this for years. I haven't tried SSRI's. I will check into that. I'm seeing my dr in a week and will ask. I welcome any suggestions at this point. And I'm almost envious that you can pull yourself together like you do. It takes me longer - often hours - and most of that is enduring the most intense fear I have ever known. My mind just runs wild with all the what-ifs and I can't calm the fears. Only after Xanax and usually falling asleep can I overcome an episode.
Also i was nauseous the whole time i was too. Until it got better. I lost 6lbs in a week. WTH!
I have been there...sort of there now, lol. I felt like when i woke up in the morning i couldn't get a good breath, my heart would beat fast, and i would have to sit down for about 15 minutes before getting ready for work to try and get myself together. Not trying to throw medicine at you, but have you ever tried a SSRI? I got on those after and it did help, plus prayer.
