I suffer from anxiety and anything can set it off. Feelings of not being able to cope and can feel my heart racing, headache and feeling nauseous. Sometimes it can just be the pounding of my heart, which is difficult to control. How do you cope with yours?

One thing that works for me is actually tensing up and trying to make the feelings worse which might sound crazy I tense really hard and then breathe out deeply and keep going In a little while I become completely relaxed and the panicky feelings subside Its adrenaline pumping through your body that causes all the nasty feelings
I really recommend the DARE response book by Barry McDonagh it's brilliant or anything by Dr Claire Weekes
I use relaxation videos on YouTube and make sure I lie down and relax to one at least once a day
I hope you will feel better soon it's such a horrible horrible feeling but it you have been checked out by a doctor and all ok the panic attacks won't and can't hurt you
Take good care of yourself xx
