I have no appetite for 2 or 3 days now and my stomach isn't even growling. I feel so unhealthy and do not want to leave my bed. My heart races for no reason and I hate it. I can not take meds. for anxiety because I abuse pills very easily, this is why I have anxiety. Any advice is welcome.

- Try some decaf chamomile tea. It is a lifesaver for me and I've had panic attacks all my life. It is also anti-spasmotic, anti-inflammatory and anti-histamine. Really - C. Seasonngs makes a good one. Let me know how it goes.

I understand. I cannot eat when i am very stressed either. Try some epsum salt bathes and chamomile tea, warm milk and some Tums too. Magnesium might be helpful along with fish oil to add to your diet as well. Please contact your doctor. There are many meds out there w/o side effects or potential for abuse:)

Good luck honey!

You realy need to contact your doctor. Staying in bed all day is not good and could be a sign of depression..

Thanks ladies
I got out of bed and went outside and painted my toe nails. That helped a lot.And I finally got hungry right after I posted. I will try the cham tea also. I just brought this all on myself. If I am depressed and have anxiety its because I got out of control New Years weekend. I am serious about getting better and going to see a counseler at my church. Thank you for all of your support. Nobody here judges anyone and that is really comforting to come here and let it all out!
