I have found that being in new situations i feel anxious almost as if I am drowning! It feels like rocks are weighning me down and the more i struggle the harder it is to breate

I tend to focus on the drownig itself and imagine i am a mermaid therefore i can breathe underwater a quote i tend to focus on is ''If you cant beat them, join them'' this helps me as when i am in a situation i feel like an outsider and joining makes me feel calm and a shadowerer so to speak

Quote 4) You are what you are
Whenever i have an anxiety attack i want to be someone else anyone else, but remembering that i cant be anyone else and i can change myself has lead me onto a path were i am in a position to help other people.
Anxiety feelings
Tension
I feel so tense not only in my chest but also throughout my whole body and sometimes it feels like i am so still i cant move, usually i try to focus on where the feeling is and try and move it down my body untill the tension is no longer present.
Breath
Shortness of breath is another feeling and i tend to feel like i am about to take my last breath which often makes me more panicky, by remembering that this isnt my last breath takes away the panic and a feeling of easiness helps me calm down.
Alone
Often i feel alone and that i am the only one expereincing these feelings, sometimes knowing that i am not alone helps me and ensures that i am a fighter.
Pain
Ofte anxiety hurts not just physically but also mentally, i feel like im at the end and the pain is just too much to get rid of the pain i tend to distract myself.
Bloated
anxiety makes me feel bloated like i am absorbing all the negative feelings and only positive thoughts can unbloat me
