hey everyone. first time officially posting so far!
as my anxiety has gotten worse i've been dealing with some pretty intense physical anxiety / panic symptoms such as throat tightness, extended-period dizzy spells, nausea, migraines, hand tremors and fingers twitching, general fatigue in my limbs, numbness in my arms and face, depersonalization etc. etc. the list ofc goes on.
although i still plan on seeing a GP to rule out other conditions i've kind of accepted that they're just anxiety and that usually keeps my mind off of thinking i'm dying or rushing off to the hospital or whatever but... it doesn't usually make them stop or go away. they're really annoying and (not to be a baby, lol) i have a really low threshold for feeling uncomfortable.
does anybody have any advice or coping mechanisms in the meantime to get through the discomfort? i've been told to try to imagine other pleasant sensations to combat unpleasant physical sensations but i have yet to get that to work... any help or advice would be appreciated!
