    Hi Felicia, sorry you are having such a bad time. Dont be afraid, I'm sure you are not about to die and nothing terrible is going to happen to you. You seem to know the things that are bad for your health and are obviously trying to do something about it. Do you have any family or friends who can help you? Try to sit quietly for a while and breathe slowly and calmly and this will help your symptoms. Are you in the UK or USA? The best thing to do is to go and get checked out when you can, just to reassure you then make a plan as to how you are going to help yourself. Let some member of your family or a friend know how you are feeling and then it wont all seem so scary. Keep in touch, I'm sure t his can all be sorted.
