Hi if you suffer from Anxiety then any physical health issues will be magnified. If you can control anxiety levels the physical issues will disappear. So medication, relaxation, distraction teqniques, and exercise combined together will overcome anxiety.

Yes I have had it. Don't let it worry you its what the cold does to people. It will pass.

Just remind yourself your cold will pass and it's nothing serious. It's ok to have some sleepless nights. Make yourself comfortable extra pillows etc and have what you need to hand meds etc Vicks vapour may help the congestion. Hot bath to relax etc x
