    New Tip For Dizzyness

    Today i phoned the phobic society, and they told me a new idea on controlling your breathing AS TRAINED BY MENCAP,

    as soon as you feel the panic coming on,

    breath in slowly then breath out FAST,

    this stops the dizzyness because it gets rid of the excess oxygen that has been taken in due to hyperventalating or shallow breathing.

    I havent tried it yet , let me know if it works please

    Mirry, I have been advised to do this when my muscles weaken after a few minutes carrying heavy shopping for example. It's the lack of oxygen as you say.

    And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance, I hope you dance.

    just realised , it sorta like a big "SIGH" isnt it ?

    Which makes sence cos sighing relaxes the nervous system.

    I did yesturday and it def helped, I was in the material shop and as I was paying for my material I felt the panic start ,so I took a slow breath in and blew out like I was blowing out a candle, well the panic feeling stopped !

    Re: New Tip For Dizzyness

    I have tried it but not sure if it did any good. For some strange reason breathing excersises seem to make me dizzier. I get too aware of breathing, therefore too aware of my heartrate.

    But I will keep on practising.

    Love Josephine
