My son is similar to you but I try to get him to relax and breathe in to the count of 3 towards the stomach and then out to the count of 4.

But to remember a deep breath in.

This has been me for three years now. I was doing well but my uncle died from a heart attack last week aged 42, I’m 35. I had a massive panic attack last night, convinced I was having a heart attack, I had bad chest pains and all. I’m still not right over it today. I’m sorry I haven’t much advice because of the frame of mind I’m in at the moment. Before my uncle died what helped was medication, meditation and the Clare Weakes book.

I hope you feel better soon xx

I have been there so many times. At points if I wasn’t worried about heart disease I was worried about some other ailment or disease. I wish there was some magic thing that worked because I would gladly share it with the world. The only thing that really helped was time and the change of my thinking. I stopped fearing the symptoms so much. After time they stopped showing up as frequently. I also ran the quote “worrying doesn’t stop things from happening, it only robs the joy from today”. Hang in there friend, you are ok and all is well.
