Tight chest is back again!

[emh]

I'm having a really bad time with anxiety at the moment as well. I feel terrible today. I've got the tightest feeling round my chest and I can't eat or sleep. When i saw the doc last week i was feeling so much better that i made the choice not to go on anti depressants, but since seeing him it seems to of got so much worse, I'm wondering if seeing the doc has bought it all back? He's perscriped beta blockers if I'm really bad but i haven't taken them yet. Has anyone had them and what do they think?

Use some controlled breathing exercises to relieve some tension in your chest that should help a little :)

I know you've heard this but deep breathing REALLY helps. ALso going for a walk because you extend the air into ur lungs. Dont be afraid. Challenge urself. You WILL feel better within half hour.
