RE: Updated list of accounts harassing me and attempting to drive me off of steemit/steem

A healthy sleep is paramount. I suggest you try natural relaxing/sleep remedies like frankincense and lavander essential oils. Get away from your computer when it's bedtime. Cut down on stimulants like coffee and soda. Let go of social media negativity. Getting a pet helps with anxiety, taking a walk and exercice too. I can keep on going with advice to counter anxiety, but I think you should pause and think: if your current lifestyle isn't helping your mental state, maybe it's time to change your lifestyle.

This reminds me of a Seinfeld episode where George is pissed off at his life because nothing is working out for him. Then Jerry advises him: "If every instinct you have is wrong, then the opposite would have to be right." Then George starts doing the opposite and his life improves. It's a brilliant episode.

P.S. You don't need to go to the clinic, it's useless, they'll send you back home and tell you there's nothing wrong (no heart attack or shit like that). Remember, although panic attacks are extremely uncomfortable, they never killed anyone. Nobody dies from panicking. It only lasts 15min then you're fine, right?

Sort:  

All this stress made my blood pressure jump as well. That can kill you. Blood pressure up, short of breath, sharp pain in left arm. What would you think? At leas the sharp pain in the arm is just a severely pulled bicep. My hedge trimmer is damn heavy. Pics coming later today.

If you're young and don't have real blood pressure or heart issues (diagnosed by a doctor) then you have nothing to fear. Blood pressure goes up and down all the time, when you exercise for example. When stressed, you lose focus and become hypervigilant with false alarms, e.g. pain in the arm that turned out to be a pulled muscle, far far from a heart attack!

I'm not young I'm old. I've had heart issues before so it's something I do have to watch out for. Also a family history. Lost my Dad to a heart attack. While I don't know for sure I would guess a pulled muscle swelling and pushing on a nerve making pain radiate up and down your whole arm would feel similar to pain caused by a heart attack. So yea I was scared like I have never been before that I might be exhibiting symptoms.

Oh I see, in that case take it easy.
