The last time I went to the ER, I had a panic attack while I was sleeping!!! I was used to the panic attacks, but I was on Ambien, so this one was different, and scared the beegeebers out of me. They kept me lying alone in a room for an hour. I'm not sure, but it seemed like they were sending me a message "Don't come here unless it's an Emergency!!!
I'm all alone now, also, I turned 70 last year and everything is falling apart.
Yoga is 95% Breathing, you not only learn to increase the amount of oxygen you inhale, you expel more stale air so you can get fresh replacement healing oxygen in your bloodstream. You have to intentionally override your autonomic nervous system, I know that doesn't help you right now, but I spend a whole lot of time worrying about my self, all day long, and it might help that.
When I try to get some diet and exercise in, it upsets the frozen place I've found as a refuge from a World and Future that's out to get me. I'm afraid when the next shoe drops, I'll have to leave my House and Home. The advice from most people is a version of "try not to worry about it"... I was originally diagnosed with severe Depression before my tilt table test, I'll bet a hundred people told me a sure fire cure, every one was different, we really are alone in this life, hunh?
I'm going to have to find a way to bring people back into my life, my Mom and Brother recently died, and I wouldn't want to drop all my problems on some strangers who would never understand anyway. My Anxiety has grown so much I'm afraid to drive sometimes. The Walls are closing in. I used to be the one who stood strong while everybody else was falling apart, practice, I guess.
If I could hand my Life over to someone who knew what was going on, I would in a Heartbeat.
