Drinking chamomile tea and parting it doesn’t take hold.

Distraction does help but when there is nothing to do the anxiety comes back. Waking up with unknown how day is going to go is awful. Something I never thought about before. Days like yesterday I wanted to go to sleep so bad. Today I'm up and while nothing major yet I am still not at ease from yesterday's events. I know I cant control life and events and shouldn't worry and enjoy my life but the urge to worry about the unknown is so strong.
Also I feel so guilty he told me when he went through it nobody understood. Which is true we were young in our 20s and I didnt have these issues. Very hard for someone to understand unless they feel it. I feel bad for not understanding back then as he does now for me. Another thing to worry about. It never ends.
After a couple of really good "normal" days, it's back again like a speeding train. Went to bed with it and woke up with it. Just walked my dog and the cool breeze has just about helped me get it under control. Don't know how long this will last but there we go. Can feel a call to my long suffering doctor coming up!
I wish I knew what triggered it off. Started about 10pm last night. Always manifests itself with breathing issues, but obviously not really, but I focus on it. Get a little flutter just below my Adams apple, start thinking there's a lung problem, then a heart problem, possibly brain issue. It's ridiculous, after having so many tests quite recently. Will splash my face before I go to work. Thanks for your support, it has pulled me round
So you know deep down that everything is ok. You have been tested and nothing has been found. So at this moment in time, there is nothing wrong and nothing bad is going to happen right in this moment. Even if there was, there wouldn’t be anything that you personally could do right now, can you call your doctor later if you’re still feeling anxious? But put it out ur mind till then so it doesn’t ruin your day? Yes splashing water helps me when I can’t jump in a shower!

I have had some tough days. I barely made it through my son's birthday dinner and yesterday shopping for less than an hour for household items. I felt overwhelmed, nauseated, back pain, and dizzy. I dont know why all these symptoms as I had others but not back pain. That just started and feels like it's on fire. Maybe built up tension but really has me worrying. I am going to doctors office today to figure it out.
Hello, much better at the moment. Spoke to doctor, who reassured me that all my test results were good. She also said that only I could fix the problem, no one else could do it for me. Suggested I get hold of a cbt book to learn coping strategies for now but ultimately I needed to deal with what has caused this in the first place. All that is fine, but I don't know what caused this! Main thing I suppose is feeling better right now! Thanks for support, really pushed me on this morning
Glad to hear ur feeling better. Have U tried therapy? I’m booked in for my first telephone app tomorrow morning. I’ve heard good things so feeling positive. Maybe they could help u figure out what triggered all this?

Well I didn't realise that, as I work for a company that is part of bupa, I am entitled to whole host of health care benefits. One in particular is called "smile" for healthy minds. Its a 24/7 phone line with a qualified counsellor. It sounds amazing and I too have heard good things. I've just got all the bumph so I too am going to speak to them tomorrow. I know it is but still, thankyou
