I'm sorry you are feeling like that and I get them too when I get anxiety attacks. You should concentrate on your breathing and do something that's gonna relax you. I find listening to music or a walk quite relaxing.

expressing yourself always helps.....write about your fear let yourself cry if you need to.

Crying is very good at stopping an anxiety attack i think maybe because your crying away all those negative and scary thoughts.
Distraction techniques can also work, iether housework a project you like or a good movie.I allways get these symptoms when im having anxiety, so i know how you feel.
I have been going to golds gym and doing 2 classes (2hrs) a day and have found this also is helping quite a bit.
Hope you fel better soon!

crying definitely helps, so does deep breathing and yoga. Yoga is hard at first, but VERY CALMING!!

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
