...See more these few weeks my anxiety has been on the high and i feel sick almost every day. it comes so often to the point where i'm getting quite used to the attacks. anyway, i just wanted to ask, if meditation actually helps with anxiety in the long term? i do try to meditate but there are times when my brain just says no and starts overthinking during my meditation which makes me feel even moer frustrated.

panic attacks

...See more recently i've been feeling anxious for no reason, and sometimes it leads to me having panic attacks. i realise that when the panic attack is coming i tend to start breathing faster and harder, so when i sense it coming i'll try to control my breathing but it makes me feel light headed. i really hate this because it's affecting my life so much to the point where i dont even want to leave my home. i do go out sometimes, but most of these times are that i force myself to and sometimes it ends up as having a panic attack. i also have emetophobia, and when panic attacks come, it makes me feel like throwing up and this makes my anxiety and attacks even worse. although i don't actually throw up during my attacks and i know it's all because of what my brain is perceiving as a threat, but i'm so sick of feeling this way.
