I know seeking reassurance is sometime taking a step back from a therapeutic point of view but I really need it today. I constantly feel full of air no matter what I eat or drink and this can be attributed to my problems I have with burping. This causes me to feel pressure in my stomach, chest and throat constantly.

I feel short of breath constantly because I am assuming my diaphragm has pressure on it but i’m not sure. 

My doctor has listened to my heart and lungs and says everything seems fine. My blood pressure does sky rocket when I take it just because of white coat but apart from that he diagnosed me with chronic anxiety. 

Everyday is a struggle. Every time I wake up I am constantly scared of what today will bring. I can’t eat or drink. I can’t walk without feeling out of breath. My heart rate has been relatively low which I guess is good (60-75 bpm) but does thump hard at times. I just want me back. My old life when I could go to the grocery store without feeling like something bad is going to happen.

Anyone else in my boat? If so I love you all and if not I still love you. People that struggle with mental health are truly the bravest people I know.
