I’ve had one today for the first time in years. I was diagnosed with Health anxiety when I was really young and therapy really help me with the panic attacks. Today though I just can’t seem to shift the over whelming feeling of doom. I pulled a muscle on my lower back yesterday when I was at the beach and I’ve been in absolute agony since. I’m worried that I’ve really damaged it and I’ve got to go back to work tomorrow and sit on a computer desk so I’m unsure what to do. Anyone got any advice to shift the feeling?

Thank you.

Have you taken any painkillers? Also hot and cold therapy. Frozen bag of peas on the area for about 15 minutes, then a warm bath.

I think you're having a blip because of hurting your back. Have you been stressed lately? Can you revisit the coping techniques you learnt previously?
