could it really be anxiety

Ok I had posted a question earlier and I missed spelled a lot of stuff sorry. Well I really don't know what to do anymore and I'm beginning to think I'm losing it. Well I have been to doctors ERs etc. They all say the same thing it anxiety. But I'm so scared that its not. Everyday I feel like I'm going to die. I wake up dizzy my arms, legs, back , neck, chest, head all hurt. It didn't start off this way at first it wasn't all that bad and now a year later it just getting worse. I use to go out and have friends and never had a worry in the world and now I feel as if I'm dying everyday. I'm only a 23 year old female and I have had test after test done. From cat scans on my head kidneys and lugs all fine. I have had bloodwork done numbers off times all fine. And I have had EKGS on my heart again all fine. I just can't make myself believe that I really am fine! I don't won't to be on meds I mean people did it long before meds why can't I do it now. All I want to do now is stay in be and never go anywhere I'm just so scared all the time that its really not anxiety and I have something really worng with me like cancer or something. Any help anyone can give me would help so much and thank you for any help offered!!!

you sound exactly like i feel =) yes its anxiety..thats what it does to our minds..its a disorder]characterized by excessive, exaggerated anxiety , worry about everyday life events with no obvious reasons for worry. People with symptoms tend to always expect disaster and can't stop worrying about health, money, family, work, or school. the worry often is unrealistic or out of proportion for the situation. Daily life becomes a constant state of worry, fear, and dread. Eventually, the anxiety so dominates the person's thinking that it interferes with daily functioning, including work, school, social activities, and relationships.and although you say you dont want to be on meds..its not only the meds that we "need" to heal ..it actual therapy......and usually it takes somthing like emotional stress, trauma and stressful events, such as abuse, the death of a loved one, divorce, changing jobs or schools,etc. to start to get these symptoms..sometimes its a thyroid problem...but if your doc has checked it all..please let it be..believe your okay..i would say your next step is a psychiatrist...your md should have already recommended this..mine did 4 months agao..but i was being hard headed...didnt want ot say to people im on meds ..i see a head doc..but ive gotten to the point im just so ready to be back to me again..im tired of being a prisoner...i see mine for the first time on next thursdy ..and im excited...stepping back ive been through some really difficult things that i really had suppressed...and sometimes just talking about the deepest things inside of us can really heal us...and maybe you have things deep inside of you that need to e set free...try the meds and also set an appointment with a psychiatrist hun...your too young to live this way..i know what it feels like. good luck..and remember you can not die from anxiety or panick..dont let it control you..your not alaone here..good luck and Godbless
