Cant cope with this feeling..

[soph_ie]

Recently my anxiety has been sky high. I haven't been able to go anywhere and it is really effecting me. I use to be able to deal with my anxiety/panic attacks but now it is getting unbearable. I get such bad pains in my chest which makes me panic and i just cant get any air in, which causes me to go faint and very hot. It really scares me and no one seems to understand what i am experiencing. Can anyone help me.. i dont know how to deal with this..it is destroying my life and i dont know what to do anymore.

I'm only 20 myself. Just find it hard to cope and deal with it as no one understands. I feel lost as i have no one to talk to or relate to. How do you cope with it? Coz it feels like it is destroying my sanity

I have wrote this before so sorry for repeating myself but I have suffered like this all my life and one thing I have found to be invaluable is books by Dr Claire Weeks.. two I would recommend.. Self Help for your Nerves.. Peace from Nervous Suffering.. these books literally saved my life .. please think of getting them they are very easy to read and will help you immensely I brought them over 45 yrs ago and they have come out many times in my life to remind me of hoe to cope x
