    Hello Stephx calm down my love! I know from your posts on here your anxiety is sky high! If I were to feel for that pulse I'm sure I would find it! It's probably quite normal but exaggerated cos you're anxious. Health anxiety is the most horrible of illnesses but the only way forward is to accept! Accept all the crap, and tell yourself what will be will be!  Panicking and worrying solve nothing! They are the cause of your illness! I know how difficult this is to do. Trust me. Worrying only keeps symptoms going. I know you know this. Your pulse is normal just exaggerated because of your anxiety! Deep breaths and relax as much as you can. I'm thinking of you. E.

      Oh trust me ...the wise words only come with age and experience! One thing we all have in common is a wonderful imagination!!!!  IMAGINATION ! You don't actually KNOW what's going to happen to you in the next 5 minutes! Nobody does for sure! Stay in the minute for now! Is the feeling in yor head really so bad??? I doubt it. You imagine it to be much worse than it is because you are frightened of what it is and what might happen to you as a result. I'm not saying that you are imagining what's happening to you right now but you are as to what might happen because of it! IMAGINE the feeling becoming less and less and your anxiety becoming less along with it because you KNOW that nothing bad is going to happen to you. Try it just for now. E.

    Hello Steph,

    I have to re iterate what Elizabeth says.

     It is not at alla pleasant feeling you have .But like all our feelings they do all passi in time. Thikn of all the good feelings you have had in your lifetime,and of how these have passed ,these you have now will also pass believe us  ,we too have had  and still do have them. Acceptance is the key ,it really is .

    Take Care

      Hello dear Steph,

      I do understand just how you are feeling and why you feel so afraid of those feelings,please do try and stick with them for a short while..don`t try and run from them ,believe me they will simply chase you .I mean that in the imaginary sense and not in a physical manner .

      As for you dying ,my dear new friend ,if I can put it this way ,yes you are dying ,as we all are dying right from the moment we are born ,each and every second takes us ALL that bit nearer to the death of our physical body .None of us can escape this Steph,I am sorry to say this however it is something we do all have to accept..

      But dear Steph,please ,as has been said ,acceptance is the key, and just as you are accepting of your unpleasant situation ,try really hard to also accept the fact you are NOT going to die right here and now ,this very minute,any more than anyone  of us in here are.

      We do know how bad this makes us feel Steph, really we do ,so please keep coming in here and talk with us ,

      Take Care

      Dear Steph I am sending you lots and lots of hugs to help give you some comfort
