Kaaayla x I totally understand what you mean. It is a very uncomfortableand scary feeling of the fight or flight stance.

You are still in a deep grieving process which is not allowing you to relax.

There is a video on YouTube that I just checked out which I think may help.

"Difficulty Breathing/Anxiety & Panic Symptoms Explaines"

by Improvement Plan

Knowing what is happening to your body can sometime reduce the stressful

thoughts that make us think catastrophically. Hugs :) xx

Yes Some days i feel like I'm out of air or can't breathe at times. It really kind of scares a person when that happens.

You know what I use to do when that happened?? I'd jump up and down a coupletimes. It seemed to open up the solar plexus and relax my diaphragm by using up

any extra adrenaline running through me. :) xx

Ooh, very interesting. I hold all my emotions in my solar plexus, so I will have to try this.
