You're doing the right thing by recognizing that it's anxiety. Sometimes you have to tell yourself over and over (and over and over and over) again for it to really sink it. Keep up the good work! :)

I seem to believe its anxiety when I'm feeling good but when I get the dizzy light headed feeling and the chest pains I really do think I'm dying.

Hi seanydee, have you had cbt? I'm also on fluoxetine which has been helping. The cbt has almost stopped all my negative thoughts and through psychotherapy I'm starting to discover the issues going on under the surface and to then tackle them. My herbalist assures me once I've uncovered the things that cause my fear my anxiety will go away.
