So tired of feeling like this

[anx mum]

Hi everyone not long got up and having trouble with my breathing already this is really getting me down:weep: . Just wanna have my life back. Feel scared as my partner is at work.

[leeann]

Hiya I no what you mean. Make a nice cup of tea and sit there breath in 4 times and breath out 4 times. Keep thinking this is just anxiety. I no this is easier said then done. xx

[anx mum]

Thanx for replying feel a little better now. How r u today?

[leeann]

Glad your feeling better x

[anx mum]

My mum always used to say a sweet cup of tea makes u feel better. This breathing just really gets me down

[redballoons]

hi
sometimes when i feel this i play the piano! I know you might not have a piano but something similar - singing or whatever might help because i find that the beat helps to regulate my breathing

I can understand that it gets you down. Its horrible feeling this way. The piano sounds good. lol I have my daughters little one i think i might have a go. and it has a microphone so might have a sing song to :roflmao:

Do u find it hard 2 concertrate? I have 2 boys my 2 year old bday 2moz and i have a 10 month

[leeann]

[redballoons]

My house is full of half finished things so yes i find it hard to concentrate lol

[anx mum]

R u able to go out?

[redballoons]

i dont go out much, I will normally take my daughter to nursery (although not this week) but other than that i tend to stay in. I am dreading tomorrow because i have a midwife appointment and i have to go to the surgery - i am seriously nearly in tears thinking about it.

can you go out much?

sophie

[anx mum]

No cant go out only if my partner takes me in car. If i go in a shop will feel like im gonna pass out or die its horrible been like this over 3 months now

[redballoons]

thats exactly how I feel, even with my husband there I shoot around grabbing what I need and run out:blush:

sophie

[anx mum]

How long have u felt like that?

[redballoons]

about two years (sorry!) since my son was born, it goes through phases of being bad then not so bad - in the not so bad phases i can nip to town alone etc but in the bad phases i dont leave the house at all

sorry to hear you are having such a hard time

[anx mum]

[EmmaJane]

I understand what you are all saying. I have been through a couple of weeks of high anxiety and panic. Now thats over, I just want to sleep. Only just got up now as I have the school run to do (5 kids). Last night I came over all dizzy, felt like I was going to faint! ended up with a full blown panic attack. Still feel a bit dizzy now, but guess I would of fainted by now :-).

[leeann]

Well just come back from shop, and feel ill Ive got period pains really bad feel sick dizzy headache. But no period yet so im starting to panic that its not my period and its something else. Im going to have a bath to see if I can relax abit. x hope your all ok x
