Please help extreme anxiety

Everyday I think I'm going to die. I can't breathe good I am always constantly yawning to fulfill a breath and I seem to breathe fast and my blood pressure is always going up and down. Is that my blood pressure doing that? I also been worried about hiv even though I have negative tests at 9 months after a risk I had. Someone please get back to me

Omg same here I think everyday something might happen to me then I think I shouldn't  go outside cause I think I'm just going to collapse when I'm outside or on a train or something I became claustrophobic. I am going to start working out because I want to also lose weight. It feels good to workout

Aw I am so sorry you have to go through that :( I remember  back when I was 13 I had panic attacks I'd literally feel my heart beating in my chest so fast out of no where and jump up and scream I'm having a heart attack and in my sleep I'd jump thinking I can't breathe like It was one of the hardest times of my life it was hard. My heart is always beating so fast I wish I can feel like I used to it's so hard thank you for your kind words

Thank you so much your words really touched me. Same to you I hope you can always have peace in your mind and overcome things. Thank you so so much

I am on the same boat as you. Every day I think that I am either gonna die in my sleep or suddenly pass out. I think these things non stop 24/7. I can't sleep, I can't eat, I can't function.


Try to exercise. It will improve your mood. Try thinking about the present. You are alive today, so enjoy life. You don't even know what's gonna happen 5 minutes from now. Also talk to someone. It helped me feel better, knowing that I am not alone.

You are NOT alone. My blood pressure does the same thing but its nothing your doctor cant help you with. NOW, about the HIV thing.....I also have that same fear. I am new here but I think we can all get through this together if we talk. You are negative so breathe a sigh of relief from that. You are alive, beautiful and healthy. The only thing we cant control is our mind. It is far more powerful than we can handle on our own. I am here for you!!
