Heart Rate

My heart is thumping away. My heart hurts. My arms are tingly. I can feel my heartbeat in my stomach which is weird. It really feels like I can't breathe. My lips are tingly.

I'm just trying to stay calm. Trying to redirect my thoughts when they get out of place trying to scare me. Doing some deep breathing.. how much longer

Anon, you are hyperventilating. Try getting your mind onto something else.

Slow down your breathing. Bring your shoulders down away from your ears.

Go into YouTube and listen to "Sympathetic Breathing Meditation" by the

Quiet Mind Café. As many times as you need to, until you start feeling more

in control. :) xx

I guess I am hyperventilating without noticing. :( I made it through. Thankyou I love all these videos, I've made a playlist on youtube of them.

Anon, I'm glad they helped some. There are plenty more I can give you that

are as short as 1-5 minutes long. They work, It's about getting your breathing

back in sync. Will get back to you with other videos on PM. :) xx

Hello :-)

It sounds like you are very much hyperventilating , try as Agora says doing some meditation this should calm it down if you find it doesn't then phone a Doctor and talk with them but doubtful it will come to that :-)

Take Care x
