My chest is tight and it’s pretty hard to breathe. This mornings anxiety has been some of the worst. I cannot stand this for much longer. I need to get better because this is controlling me and it scares me because I am not able function well anymore. I genuinely was not aware that a human being can feel this terrible ever. I never quite believed in God in the past, but these last 6 weeks pretty much solidified those beliefs. Over this period of time I have never experienced so much misery. I know I’m being a pity party but waking up every day is a nightmare.

Anxiety attacks can be so scary and make it so hard to be able to get yourself to calm down enough to be back to a safe point. Try closing your eyes and taking slow deep breaths in through your nose and out through your mouth to be able to increase the amount of oxygen that gets to your brain. The chest pain is rough, it literally feels like you are having a heart attack. It would be a good idea to talk to your doctor or see about getting treatment with a therapist to be able to get a handle on the anxiety because after a while it literally starts to consume you. I hope that you are able to get through this moment and hope that you can get some help to be able to start feeling healthy again! Best wishes!! :)

I completely understand where you are coming from whole foods. In fact I just recently left a psychiatric ward where I checked myself in voluntarily, just so I could have a safe place to work through some of the anxiety I've been having. I would love to hear more about what your symptoms are if you are willing to share. Maybe we could help each other.

I would very much like to share. Would it be okay to go into the chat to talk ?
