Heath anxiety has its hold right now.

PancakeThePiggy January 1st, 2018

It may be more of a vent but I'd love to hear how you deal with this. I have heath anxiety revolving around breathing issues. Currently I have bronchitis and I am really struggling to stay calm. I havnt slept for a couple days nor eating mostly due to just how scared I am. I constetnly in a pannic state and gets worse when I have asthma and bronchitis flare ups. I feel bad having to force my busy family to stay around me so I have someone to hold onto as I cry and pannic. I know there not goign to be doing this for me much longer So I realy really need some advice. What do you do to stay calm during trying times?

I feel the same way. Right now, my left arm from elbow to tips of fingers are tingly - so I think I may be having a heart attack or stroke. I know that I'm not but it makes the anxiety worse. No one ever seems to understand. I know that it could be carpal tunnel since I am on the computer all day. But my mind won't let me calm down. I hate it. I really hate it. Healthy anxiety is the worst (they are all worse), I want to go in the restroom and cry. I want it all to stop.

@jenniferchapa83 I hate those tingles Iv been geting them constently this week via panic attacks from this sickness and from my medication I have been takeing. Heath anxiety is aweful Im glad I'm not the only one dealing with. I have a dificult time calming my self which i need to because Im actualy very sick and I know I am just making it worse. My axiety gets so bad that I ended up not eating very much for 8 days which has now hit me and feels awful. I hope we both feel better soon!
