The best thing I can say is that you just have to tell yourself that absolutely NOTHING bad is going to happen, it's anxiety, it's harmless. The feelings of panic and dread WILL pass. Valairum Root capsules from Holland and Barrett are supposed to be quite good and you can also get rescue remedy sweets from Boots that you suck on and have four drops of rescue remedy in per sweet.
Chin up Jack - you ain't alone with this. Don't let it beat you  |
It's awful isn't it. I don't have the pains in my chest, I just feel like i can't breath. I find when I'm in a place that i feel really anxious being in I dig my nails into my other hand to stop the shaking, I know I need to go to the doctors but i can't bring myself to go and have to sit around other people while waiting. Next time I go to boots I'll have to have a look for them
