Really bad evening.

[Coopers12]

I'm having a really bad anxiety episode this evening. I can't shift the feeling of death, I just feel like i'm going to die. Then I start panicking cos I'm so scared of dying I'm sso so so scared

I think we are all scared of this or illness.. You have to try to come to terms with it find something you believe in that eases the fear.. A wise lady once said to me , when I was younger and very frightend of death... Do you remember being born?? Obviously I don't , she said think that when we die we'll not know but just pass to another place... It eased me a bit ! I'm still scared as are many because it's unknown... Try to think of good things and live to the best of your ability now.. Don't look too far ahead, the chances are you'll live a long long life . Try to relax , concentrate on getting the anxiety under control and you'll probably find you won't worry quite so much , it will pass !

Coopers12, let me explain what's happening to you, when we experience anxiety disorder our nervous system becomes temporarily sensitised and one symptom of this is that all our normal little fears and worries can become magnified ten fold. So the natural concern about dying that nature wires into us can become a major obsession and I think this is maybe what has happened to you. When you recover from your general anxiety your concerns about dying will return to normal.

So let me tell you, you most definitely ARE NOT going to die, this is not going to happen to you, it's just a little trick your jangled nerved are playing on you.

So what should you do to recover? Simply ACCEPT this strange feeling for the moment adding the least amount of fear to your already over sensitised nervous system. We are allowed to have strange feelings, it is not going to make you lose your mind or go crazy, we all have them, different strange feelings to you maybe, but strange feelings never the less. So just Accept the strange feeling knowing it's just a temporary blip inyour tired nerves. It's not a nice feeling but it's not going to harm you and you most certainly are not going to die.

People who have had near death experiences all report a great feeling of euphoria and lack of fear and most don't want to come back when told it's not their time yet and they have to return to this earthly plane. So don't worry Cooperers12, everything is fine and you don't have to worry about dying, believe me.
