Pain in chest 1 month ago

All week I have had a strange knot of pain at the front of my chest. I can’t take deep breaths, even though I know I have a few bits and pieces to be anxious about, I’m not doing too badly, but this is a bit strange.



Lazyish week 1 month ago

Haven’t actually got a lot on at work right now, and feeling pretty lazy. I am panicking every so often that someone will think I’m lazy. I need to remember though, that the last year has been so hectic that anything less than breakneck speed would feel slow to me.



Alas... 3 months ago

..no time for this today – need to get a contract translated from English to Spanish and need to write script for bosses by tomorrow morning! Slight panic mode.



Starting to loosen up 3 months ago

My shoulders etc are the same as before, but at least now I can loosen my shoulders slightly, they’re not so tight and tense.



Racing heart 3 months ago

Every time I check I have chest pain, tense shoulders and a racing heart – this is when I am supposed to be relaxing i.e. reading, watching TV, talking to someone. Really, how does one get past this?



Deep breaths 3 months ago

My eCouch module has an exercise for me which is a meditation/deep breathing exercise. But I can’t do it!! I start and within seconds I am thinking about work/family/whatever. Try again and…no, can’t. Will keep trying as this is affecting my physical health.



100 against 1, yay! 4 months ago

Husband and moi have found a great game on XBox Live, a realtime trivia quiz against other players. Nos defendemos bien, as he would say.



Why!!!?????????????????? 4 months ago

OK, feel a bit desperate today. Have an anxiety disorder which has not been helped by my utterly hellish day at the office. Trying to manage this, but I am so tense I’ve twisted my neck and can barely move it, but trying to do exercise to stretch it. Always notice my shoulders are around my ears and I just can’t switch off. At night when trying to sleep I even have to unclench my fists and jaw, I hate being like this, but I can’t remember a time I felt able to relax properly. What can I do?



I'm good at a lot of things, but relaxing isn't one of them 19 months ago

Learning how to relax is something I would really like to do and not only that, its something I need to do. I’m starting tonight, by staying at home and resting and watching movies.
