Hi i’m new to this community. After a recent health scare i’ve been unbelievably anxious about the future of my physical and mental health. After multiple doctor’s appointments i’ve been given a completely clean bill of health but i still feel anxious about everything and it isn’t helping that all the anxiety is causing me chest tightness, I just don’t know what to do and i’m so sick of feeling this way.

Hello and welcome maknoxx

Is there a pool near you or sports centre. Do you like swimming? Could you treat yourself to a new swimsuit and start going to the pool regularly. Once a week to start then increase to 2 or 3 times? Help you relax and keep trim?

What things did you enjoy before recent ill health?

I saw my regular physician, had two ekg’s done and a chest x-ray and both came back completely normal. Also i apologize i just realized i worded my post weirdly. What i meant instead of muscle pain is muscle tension.

Usually i would take a warm bath with half amount of epsom salt which has magnesium and helps my anxiety and muscle tension...sometimes to meditate with rain sounds or calming music also..i hope you start feeling better!
