SK.,

It feels that way...but it is not. The realilty is that anxiety is a chronic condition that comes and goes.

You have felt this way before, and you are still here. You can get through this rough time as well.

Slow your breathing. Relax your muscles progressively from your head to your feet and up again. Keep telling yourself:

"This is anxiety making me feel this way. I am alright and have made it through this before, and can do it again."

You are going to be fine. Post back in a bit and let us know how you feel, okay?

scrumking,

You are not going to die right now as it is not your time.  You are having a Panic Attack.  I am sorry you are feeling so bad.  You can not die from a panic attack nor does it do any physical harm to our bodies. But know that things can get better and you can train your body and mind to relieve the intensity of these panic attacks.

Check out our resources at the top of the page and choose a breathing exercise to use daily until you train your body to automatically "just breath" when your panic attack starts.

Keep telling yourself that you are OK.

Kindly,

Kitt
