Hello all, I'm new to this group but I'm so glad I can see that others have some of the same issues I have. I constantly suffer from high anxiety and and have a panic disorder. My trouble is I always find myself thinking something is going to kill me and I hate that. Like I have constant pain in my left arm but I've been told by numerous doctors that women don't have arm pain when having a heart attack. The feeling in my head is awful as well feels like I'm going crazy most days. I'm not sure what to do to make myself have a normal life again ugh. Just needed to get that out and thanks for letting me vent lol . if anyone has any suggestions on how to deal better with this crap I'd love to hear them.
Thanks =)

What I am going to suggest is not easy even for someone with
a spiritual background, I know, it took me a multitude of times
to get to a mind set that I would not waist another day rehearsing the moment of my death, and that is what my panic
attacks had become, "rehearsal".
I came to the conclusion that this was inevitable and I could not
prevent it, but I sure as heck didn't need to spend every good
moment of my life, trying to get that final moment just right.
You can do this also, just reach down deep inside and make
yourself a promise, every time I have a pain its not the big one!
The best cure is just to live, enjoy the simplest things, and don't
give in to the fear. Peace

Thank you Larry, funny thing is that I'm a very spiritual person but it seems lately my faith has dropped off a little and I'm trying desperately to regain that back. I appreciate your input and I'm definitely going to try as hard as I can to live each day to the fullest.
Much love
Christina

In as much as you are already a believer I will say this Christina
"it's my belief that anxiety and panic are tools of the evil one
and he uses them to distract up from our true goal",
Panic and anxiety sure are a distraction, they denominate everything. I send you my Peace
