Is there a part of your body it hits most/worse when it gets bad? For me, its in my gut. It feels like twisting and knots and wrenching. And then the symptoms from that cause muscle tension, headaches, etc. But I feel like it lives and originates in my stomach.
Everyone always says, "you'll be okay, it is just an uncomfortable feeling that will pass" and I can just never get on board with that.
It is among one of the worst feelings I have ever experienced. I would say worse than depression, for me at least. On par with grief. It is truly, truly, beyond awful. I guess maybe there's no more apt way of putting it? But uncomfortable just feels so downplaying..maybe that's just me?
