That all to familiar feeling of being anxious, occasionally creeping into a full blown panic attack has got me by the tits lately and is stopping me from doing the things I love like being bent into a pretzel and receiving a lovely face full of cum among other things! Got me just wanting to hide away from the world for fear of being judged if I do have an "episode". I know I shouldn't let it stop me from living my life to the fullest but it's just so hard to not just want to crawl under the duvet and hide.

does anyone else struggle on a day to day basis with anxieties/panic attacks? Is there anything that helps you to cope?

Hey xx

You’re not alone x

That suffocation feeling when the anxiety is at its worst is awful x

Best thing I can suggest is to reach out x Don’t suffer in silence x

Try and grab some fresh air and re-set xx

Anxiety is becoming the number 1 mental health issue worldwide in the western world at the moment. I can be difficult to cope but there’s are lots of different therapeutic options that can be beneficial. I suffered with it all my life and about 10years ago I got some help and no even though it still does try to rise I can generally manage it and reduce it most of the time.

Was taught controlled breathing and to do some very basic exercises with that.

Is there someone you can speak to who can help with that?

Sorry you're feeling so rotten, OP.

I've had debilitating anxiety in the past that kept me from leaving the house. Grounding exercises are useful, but ultimately it was therapy and medication that reduced it to maneagable levels.

Have you been to the gp?

Here, There & Everywhere

Same here. Initially, years ago, mine was helped by medication and CBT therapy. Then, an amazing friend taught me Vinyasa Yoga, which focuses on your breath as you flow through the different poses. Sometimes though, if I have a really bad episode, I concentrate on just the breath-work which can then help me meditate and clear my mind of any negativity that caused the anxiety.

But, as others have said, seeing your GP is your first port of call. Or, if you live in an area that has a mental health support centre, these days they do take self-referrals. The waiting list for therapy can be long (something that this new government definitely needs to invest in), but they will direct you to websites for support, until an appointment becomes available.

Feel free to DM if ever you'd like a chat x

Peri menopause anxiety attacks, were why I first started tai chi and movement yoga. Channelling into the poses, ground me the best and I stay grounded, with other techniques I kept slipping back into the anxiety spiral

You have to find out what is causing it, then face it and overcome it.

Either that run away from it with pills and avoidance (etc) all your life.

I can relate to this. For medical reasons I couldn't take hrt, so yoga and meditation were my saviour during menopause. Obviously it didn't eradicate the physical symptoms but having a calmer mind and feeling, as you said, grounded; certainly alleviated the stress that came with the hot flushes, dry itchy skin, bloating issues etc.

Anxiety can be crippling I have suffered for years and years and it certainly has increased over the last few years due to menopause and being diagnosed with leukemia and some other issues I hope you can reach put and get support as it does help I'm lucky I have a good husband who notices when I'm slipping

Sometimes there isn't really a reason for it. I had never been anxious in my life despite much that shoukd have made me anxious. Then menopause hit. So hormonal based. Not easily overcome.

I’ve spent a lot of time constantly over thinking pretty much overthinking every element of my life, choices and actions.

A constant pressure in the chest.

I’ve always found confronting the fear to have worked but I’ve never learnt that lesson if that makes sense.
