Pr0blem

In truth I'm rather worried,
I've got something on my mind,
I must have - this keeps happening,
Yet I feel quite blind.

I don't want to say it aloud,
So I'll try it down in words,
Let Opuss hear my plight,
And hope that I'll be heard.

Every time I wake up,
I'm worse than after sleep,
Exhaustion pulls me everywhere,
Pulls me under deep.

But that is not my problem,
That's a minor glitch,
There's something worse with me:
A truly worrying hitch.

Anyone who knows me,
Describes me from my hair,
But what if I was saying...
That it's barely there.

Yes, what I am hedging,
Is that I'm worrying,
I don't know how to stop myself-
From what is happening.

I'm pulling at my hair,
My blondey-auburn mess,
It's looser by the hour,
Deteriorating tress by tress.

It's something I take comfort in,
My long and thick, thick hair,
There's no words for what I'd feel,
If suddenly it weren't there.

Panic Attack

It felt like the room was spinning. And my eyes just couldn't keep up. I felt like gravity was winning. And the space between the floor and my body was about to be shut.

Worry, You're Dead.

When my heart starts beating rapidly, that's when I know things are gonna go wrong. When my fingers to my body start to rattle and shake, that's when I know things are gonna go wrong.

The Sleepless

Twisting and turning. The world doesn't make sense. The fear twines around me. Suffocates the very essence of my being. Starved. On the verge of tears. On the edge of surrender.

Crescendo

The faint sirens sounding,. The screech of wheels hits,. All connected to the phone ring,. Which tears me to tiny bits,. I can't control my distress,. The depression, the anger,.

Panic

Surging through my veins, Fuzzing in my ears, I can't hear, Doom raising up, My heartbeats quick, My lashes flick, I can't breathe, Colour drains, I'm in pain, Struggling for breath, My fingers...

Too Much Pressure.

A little drip of pressure, Can quickly send me frowning, Amounting to a hurricane, And suddenly I'm drowning.

Being Me.

Lock me away. Just make me stay. I won't leave this room. Outside is my doom. People that mock me. Things that block me. It's a lot to take in. I'll need more than a min. I'm scared to go out.

Sick

I'm sick of being scared of being sick. The constant worry of an anxious mind, 'Is it just a cold or is it something worse?' 'Is it just that I ate too much or is it that it was dodgy.

😨that blows. I had a friend who used to pull her hair out. Her doctor sent her to a hypnotherapist and she eventually stopped.

Oh. Wear mittens? ;) I guess you need to work out when you started doing it to see what triggered it?

Babe, u can try to pull others' hair when u r anxious ;)

@unsuitableguy :/ I don't want to see a hypnotherapist! XD

@kivihe great idea that!

@Nom I think it's exams :/ I dunno. I don't realise I'm doing it sometimes! Mittens could work.., ;D

It's usually associated with stress my sweet...have you considered seeing your doc...do you have a good relationship with he/she?...there's nothing wrong in seeking support my lovely...it's the bigger person who does...hope you are feeling better soon and let us know how you are getting on...big hugs xx

@misslittleDHP thank you :') not really... I don't like the doctors very much >.< I'm gonna see if it gets any better, try and stop myself from doing it cause I don't realise I am sometimes. I'll try! Thanks 😊 xx

My little boys best friend did it when he was stressed about school etc...he had a big bald patch, but it's now grown and he has a lot more support...what about online support groups??...I bet there are some...good luck Hunni xx

@HeatherAnne don't worry you're not alone, I do it too, it's so hard to try and stop yourself isn't it? And when people tell you to stop it gets worse. Try using a stress ball or a toy called a "tangle" it helps a little:)xx

@georgie17xx thanks :D I don't even realise I'm doing it - that's the main problem :/ xx

@HeatherAnne I know, happens to me aswell:/ trying wearing a headband or something in your hair so you realise, I pull too close to the front of my head for that but it might work for you?:)xx

@georgie17xx I have seriously LOADS of hair, that's the thing. It's wild and thick and really long. I do wear headbands. Idk. I'm just gonna see how it goes xx

@HeatherAnne yeah, hope things get sorted for you:) xx
