      do you find it difficult to accept that it is anxiety? 

      do you get terrified youve got certain fatal illness's?

      I get all these things, also dry mouth, or a fixation on swallowing and saliva etc. I too become fixated on terrible fatal illnesses.  It becomes so bad it's not a fear of getting them, but more a certainty that I already have it, and am just waiting to die. Its the worst feeling in the world

    What you're feeling is definitely not  normal or healthy, but that doesn't mean you cant get through it. One of the best natural cures for anxiety is regular excersise, good diet, and a good sleep scheadule. I recommend running as at least a few days a week. I can find some good books for you on the subject. You can email me a mrfriendly20 at gmail and I would gladly be of as much help as I can be.

      Please don't underestimate your feelings. While it's good advice to sleep and eat and exercise well, always do discuss things with a doctor or therapist.  If we don't,the danger is that we sink further into anxiety or depression if things we try don't quite work. The medical profession, while not perfect really do have a lot of tools at their disposal to help us, use them as much as you can
