I don't really know if it's anxiety it probably is but my heart is this being so weird and now my stomach really hurts and I run out of Ginger so it really sucks but I'm still alive thank you God

These are the words of anxiety, but difficult to change

I know just feel like my heart's going to stop but my cardiologists already said that I don't have a heart problem I do have a heart murmur butt nothing that will kill me I just wish I could resolve it. Normally does it but for some reason today it's not working

So there you have it. It's just a feeling and doesn't represent anything bad happening

Go for a walk distract yourself

Do you have anxiety

Yes, big time, 3 years close to suicide. Seeing a therapist every week. Suicidal thoughts every day for all that time, so probably not to be trusted

No. The only things are exercise and distraction. Also mindfullness to try and divert or stop some of this thinking. The brain can be a tormenting torture.

Yes I know I don't think about anything or just about anything I did at one point because I didn't have my own spot but I cook and clean and do that stuff and sometimes when I do ask you stuff like that I thought it was like I'm going to fall I need to lay down I lay on my stomach and it helps me feel better I can't be always cold all the time and it just sucks cuz it's really ruining my life

Somehow you have to get out of your head and into things outside yourself. Working volunteering taking an interest in the news stop introspective ruminations. Accept that your physical health is good and trust in God

I do trust in God I have faith in God and myself but sometimes it's just so hard to get to this on your only and sometimes it's hard for you to even be comfortable to eat with this going on it sucks I'm trying to eat right now and it's not really working because my anxiety is going stupid butthead and I appreciate everything you've told me so far
