WHAT IS THIS?! 😫

I'm so frustrated!!!! I feel weird idk what this is. I made a big mistake and did a big no no today thinking it would calm me a bit but all it did was make my head race :( I feel shaky and weak, I feel like my heart is about to come out my chest. I start thinking something and I feel it! I keep thinking about me dying in my sleep or something bad happening. It sucks do much because I try not to show it that much to my boyfriend. He hates when I panic about something so I keep it inside and my mind just goes on and on about me dying. Ugh I can't breath, I feel like the more I go on, I tense up. I cannot stand my mind and I cannot stand my body and all these aches and sensations. I feel so scared and I'm sorry, I need to let this out..

What was the big no-no?

Smgandy,

I am sorry that you are currently feeling so bad.:( You need not share what triggered your anxiety into this level...I think I might know, and it is against forum rules to discuss it anyway. Live and learn...don't beat yourself up about it...just avoid it in the future.:)

Instead why not focus on postive coping skills to feel better. I will post some of our best suggestions from our Resources below.
