Can anyone help me with this?

I’ve been feeling every night my face burning and getting flushed, doesn’t matter if it’s cold. And it’s just my face, my hands feel cold yet my face burns and gets red. I also feel my heart beat stronger, not necessarily faster.

It started when I tried to take Sertralin for my GAD, it made me scared so I stopped taking the medication. The feeling stayed for 3 days but I thought that was because the medication was still on my system. It didn’t happen for a couple of days but yesterday I felt it and I’m feeling right now too. It always happen at night. I took a blood test a couple months ago and nothing was wrong.

I’m terrified and I don’t know if that’s an anxiety or stress symptom or any other serious disease. Please has anyone ever experienced this?? Help me! Talk to me!!

While cleaning out my room I found a paper that my therapist gave me some time ago to deal with obsessive and intrusive thoughts. Sorry the paper is a little crinkled and stained, but I figured I’d post it in hopes that it will help someone like it helped me.

Here it is again with text for anyone who can’t see the picture

  • That thought isn’t helpful right now.
  • Now is not the time to think about it. I can think about it later.
  • This is irrational. I’m going to let it go.
  • I won’t argue with an irrational thought.
  • This is not an emergency. I can slow down and think clearly about what I need.
  • This feels threatening and urgent, but it really isn’t.
  • I don’t have to be perfect to be OK.
  • I don’t have to figure out this question. The best thing to do is just drop it.
  • It’s OK to make mistakes.
  • I already know from my past experiences that these fears are irrational.
  • I have to take risks in order to be free. I’m willing to take this risk.
  • It’s OK that I just had that thought/image, and it doesn’t mean anything. I don’t have to pay attention to it.
  • I’m ready to move on now.
  • I can handle being wrong.
  • I don’t have to suffer like this. I deserve to feel comfortable.
  • That’s not my responsibility.
  • That’s not my problem.
  • I’ve done the best I can.
  • It’s good practice to let go of this worry. I want to practice.
