This sounds a lot like an anxiety attack. You should talk to your doctor. Try taking deep breaths and focusing on one object. I suggest the moon at night

Anxiety is something common in many people today, and I've been through the same thing. When I get anxious, I try to count to ten, allowing myself to focus on something other than the task at hand.

First of all keep in mind that it will pass and you won't die - there's nothing dangerous in this. It's just an affection, a moment which may last for some period. Try to focus on the idea that it will eventually pass and try not to be scared of it or panic. Be stronger than this :)

It can be debilitating having such terrible anxiety. When I tried medication, I felt myself relax soon after and I haven't had an attack since so I highly recommend medication if it's available to you. If not, seeing a therapist or a doctor about it is best.

Whenever you feel like there is something that might cause you to be nervous , take a moment to transport yourself into a hapoy memory or a happy place or start singing a song that means to you and calms you down :)

That sounds a lot like anxiety. Could be the onset of a anxiety or panic attack. When you find yourself feeling like this try to focus on your breathing, sometimes closing your eyes will help with this or walk outside for some fresh air.

Anxiety is notorious for manifesting itself in physical sensations, like shaking and sweating. Fighting the anxiety just ends up fueling it, and making it worse. I've found that when I get to a point where I feel like I'm being swept away by anxiety, I utilize the relaxation training and self-assuring self talk that I practice. Anxiety doesn't last forever, the feelings will pass.

You can try some deep breathing exercises such as breathing in for 4 and out for 7. Or if that's not your thing you could list what you can see, smell, touch, hear and taste

There are many breathing methods you can do that send calming messages to your brain. Thinking of other things can also help, I tend to have some silly little games on my phones that really distract me from my thoughts and shift my focus so I calm down a bit more. Take care and good luck.

Think of happy times, think of yourself wherever you feel most comfortable and happy and slow your breathing down. Remember there are others like you. You are not alone when you feel like this.

While you live in moment and realize that all the thoughts in your head become a horrible person and comes to scare you without any reason. Its just of no use. Let it be as it is and face whatever is coming. The best remedy is to look for good even if you know that everything is going to be bad and believe, with every hardship is ease.

It depends on the situation and person what works the best. For me it helps to focus on my breathing to calm down a bit. I also try to search for distraction, like a movie or drawing. If i get the feeling I don't have controle at all and the panic attacks won't stop I text a friend about it, so I don't have to feel alone.

I think you need professional help. Dealing with anxiety is difficult and many people cannot do it on their own. You should consider seeing a specialist in order to manage your anxiety.

The mind and body is related. What ever that goes through your mind manifests itself in different ways on the body. The vice versa is true too. The body can effect the mind to make it calm. Breathing slowly and conciously and feeling each breath as it goes in and out relaxes the running and agitated mind and helps calming things out.
