Hello all!

I'm new to this site and it's been really good to read all that I've been reading here, it's been really helpful.

Sometimes I have these overwhelming almost paraniod feelings? I am so fearful when it comes on, so uneasy.
I could be sitting one on one with a friend or all alone in the car, driving, and it will come on hard. I don't feel like anyone is out to get me, but I do feel like the world is suddenly a dangerous place. I have alot of other feelings, moods, ups and downs but these paranoid feelings are strange. I feel strange and out of place when I'm feeling these feelings. I feel a little detached and so uncomfortable. And I feel sooo frightened and insecure that I almost become a shell of a woman~just a shell~fragile like paper. As if anyone could come along, take their finger and poke a hole right through me.

Has anyone had this experience? I am 45 years old in August. These feelings I have described just came and went yesterday. Like clouds, they kept drifting in and out. One minute I was fine and the next minute I wasn't fine. I think that I must be Perimenopausal. I have other symptoms. This is just one of them.

I look forward to your responses!

I really and truly feel for you.I have had these feelings,they come out of nowhere and hit like a ton of bricks-especially when my hormones were going up or down.I remember talking to someone at church,then at home wondering if the person was thinking bad thoughts about me?!I am not like that normally.I have also been positive my husband was having an affair(he definately was not)then the next day being fine.I try to just breathe and think about something else when this happens.Prayer definately helps.Sometimes just being alone for a little while helps a great deal.And remember these bad feelings will go away.Try getting more rest as well.I know when this was happening to me was also when my insomnia was at its worst.GOD bless

Yep..I've definitely had those same feelings. I've kept track of my hormone levels and times in my cycle when estrogen was highest were best.

Dear Annie,
I've been there too. It's your hormones going haywire, tell yourself that, and try not to figure it out or make sense of the anxiety, other then it's a symptom and nothing else. Hang in there... it will get better.

Hugs,

HI.... I just wanted to add that I too have had such high anxiety it was like paranoia. It happened twice around a day AFTER my period. I woke up so scared I drove to my mothers house and babbled incoherently for hours. I felt I was going crazy and I would never return. I have never been so scared. I had crazy thoughts that now do not make sense and do not scare me, but at the time felt like a revealed truth!!! Hormones going crazy I think.
