I'm 18 years old and my doctor has diagnosed me with anxiety. I go to the doctor once a month, and I actually just went last Wednesday. I get chest pain, nausea, and shortness of breath very badly. I was doing much better, and then the last few days my symptoms have come back. My worst fear is having a heart attack and dying instantly. My chest is burning and I feel like I could just throw up everywhere. This makes me scared of a heart attack. I'm so worried and I do not know what to do...

Howdy log16 I feel you. I'm 18 and have been battling this crap sense 2011.

Hi, I'm wondering which essential oils help you. Like Lavendar? Also do

you apply it to your forehead and wrists? Animals can be a great benefit

in helping anxiety. Wish you the best.

Peppermint helps a lot with feeling sick, you can eat it or put a little on your belly helps a lot but be carful cause it can be 'hot' feeling if your not prepared for it ( keep veggie oil close but if you cant stand it anymore just wash it off with that. Lavender helps you relax yes- you can smell it ( aroma therapy) or use it on your person- anywhere you think is best. It's also a safe oil so there's no need to have a carrier oil close by. I personally want a oil that can shock me when I have an attack- it like brings me back to the planet lol
