Not comfortable

I went out with my boyfriend but I had an urge to leave. My head feels heavy and I’m short of breath. I’ve had anxiety since May of 2017 and I just hate not being able to do simple things, such as going out on a date. What are some good tips to control my anxiety?!? Help 😕

See my recent post about choice.

Also don't say you can't go out, because you can. The fact you may chose not to go out because of how you feel when your out is another thing.

Internal speak is important. If you have to start a sentence with the word can't end it with the word yet! Doing that keeps your options open.

Hopefully your boyfriend understands.

Peace!

That's good, it helps massively. Yes horrible feeling, but the feeling has never hurt you, you have survived every single time, and you will! It's not easy, no one said it was, but remember it's just a feeling.

Take a look at the work of a guy called Michael Mahoney in the uk. I learned lots from him. He's a hypnotherapist, nice guy too.

Remain strong.

Peace!
