Hi Bukendaa,

I'm sorry to hear you're feeling so low at the moment. The flu mixed with anxiety has to be a bad thing to go through!

I think the reason why you're feeling panicky is due to your anxiety. Try to relax and don't worry about it - if anything, see it as a positive thing that finally your flu is going away!

Try some deep breathing exercises, relaxation and also have a long, hot bath, get in your PJs and read a good book or do something you enjoy.

Let the feelings pass and your current negative mentality will pass with them.

All the best,
Becky
