Starting to get a big better!

Hi Everyone!

I hope everyone is doing well in these crazy circumstances! (I’m currently in tier 4 🥺)

My anxiety seems to be getting a little better :) I’ve had a few stressful situations this week that have set me off a little bit however.

Just wanted some advice as I really worry about physical symptoms!

I have noticed, more so when I’m going through a stressful time, throat feels a bit sensitive when breathing in! Almost that sharp feeling you get if you go for a run on a cold day (if that makes sense). It’s not intense, it’s just there sometimes.

Does anyone else notice this with anxiety?

I also felt like I was having a panic attack the other day, heart was pounding, felt dizzy and sick, and had an awful pain in my fore arm! Seemed so painful when I tried to stretch it or move it, only lasted a few hours and was gone by the time I had woken up the following morning!

Any help of similar stories appreciated!

Merry Christmas 🎄

Thats great you are doing better, and it must be tough in Tier 4. I am in Tier 3 here and it is bad enough. As for symptoms I haven't experienced a sore throat but I sometimes wake up with like this condensed feeling at the front of my head (don't know how else to describe it.) Its not a head ache, just a dull ache that definitely affects my mood. When it occurs infrequently I either try to sleep it off or take a pain relief tablet will often does the trick.
