Panic/anxiety And Violence?

[Laycee]

I feel alone in this, though I know we all act out our frustrations in different ways so and this could just be 'my way'.? So, when I have a panic attack I freak out on myself. I can't touch or see any part of me, my clothes, something I own or that was given to me, something I do or might enjoy, because I will do my best to destroy it. Well, I have great will power so I don't go off in a rage and destroy my things because I know I can't replace them, but at times I do snap and throw a pen or a paper I'm working on. On the other hand myself is never off limits and I wont stop beating and tearing out my hair until I for sure can't walk, and then I keep going, because simply put I can't stand myself and my decisions as it is, being at my limit emotionally is just uncontrollable.

Okay. So you've got some self control. Try building on that? Push-ups / Sit-ups / go for a run? Something physical so you're still scratching that itch, but in a healthier way than giving yourself concussions? Buy a heavybag and gloves and beat the hell out of it, instead of yourself? You've already redirected all this wild energy once, so redirecting it again, yes?

I would be so active if I could but I only weigh about 78-85 lbs. I'm supposed to be on bed rest but the anxiety wont let me.

I'm Sorry you're struggling right now. If you're on bed rest and feeling hyperactive it can be really hard. Would a stress ball/play dough/ etc help you feel better? It would be something to do with your hands that you can't break. You can squeeze the dough or the ball and chuck it around if you need to without doing damage :/ hang in there <3
