This forum is for questions and support regarding tips and techniques to help people begin to take accountability and responsibility for their general well-being and move towards improvement in all areas of their life: work, home, and relationships. Professional coaching is about setting goals, creating results, communicating with those around you to create a healthy environment, and managing change.

DISCLAIMER STATEMENT:
The self-improvement coaching forum is an information service and is not intended to be used as a substitute for professional advice or for the diagnosis or treatment of mental disorders. By participating in this coaching forum you are not entering into a doctor-patient or attorney-client relationship. You agree to seek independent professional guidance for legal, medical, financial, business, spiritual or other matters. You understand that all decisions in these areas are exclusively yours and you acknowledge that your decisions and actions regarding them are your sole responsibility.

Coaching is very different from therapy or counseling. It is a pro-active approach instead of a dependent reliance upon a counselor or therapist to unearth the hidden issues buried deep in a person’s past. Coaching deals with the "here-and-now" and acknowledges that each individual can take responsibility for their own life by having tools and resources that support them. Coaching focuses on wellness and expects the individual to be an active participant in his own well-being.

Im not sure what to do, I am a 27 yr. old, non-smoking, female.  Everyday I feel like something is wrong with me or something bad is going to happen to me.  Ive been to the doctor and had an abnormal ekg come back due to twave changes, then I went to cardiologist and he stated he didnt think its my heart.  I do have anxiety, but am afraid to take any medication.  I have the perscribtion paxil. I have may symptoms:  nervousness, pain in my arm, lightheadedness, feel like i'm going to die,  stomach and bowel problems ect. So what I am asking is do you think it could all be anxiety related or is there something else going on?? I would apreciate any advice, I am a single mother of 3 girls and I feel like I'm making them suffer from what ever is going on with me.

The first thing to do is rule out anything medically.  So, I would recommend a full check-up.  If your check-up doesn't identify the cause of your symptoms, then I would recommend visiting a psychiatrist who will be able to determine if you are experiencing any side effects, as part of your symptoms.  I also strongly urge you to seek counseling, as well on a consistent basis to help support you at this time.
