Hi Dulciana
These feelings eventually started to go for me when I went into proper therapy.  It started with NLP when I first noticed I wasn't reacting or feeling the anxiety to certain things anymore and I was explained to about the electrical charges in the brain that situations especially  as a child cause to the emotions and patterns  of behaviour we then take into adult hood.  I then went into it all further by having analytical hypnotherapy this allowed me to see the reasons behind my responses like the one you talked about,  holding your stomach and feeling the anxiety.  It uses the sub conscious to see what was exactly going on then you recall it sort the emotion out and then the rewiring happens and you know what it goes.  I can honestly say if I hadn't done all of this I definitely would be a mess going thru menopause instead it's just the physical and that's bad enough!  Best gift I could ever pass onto another person.  Take Care x

Totally agree Kate. Therapy isn't for everyone and it can be expensive and at the moment it's costing me a lot but what price is peace of mind if it helps. The NHS stuff isn't suffice to or lengthy enough but find a good private therapist and they are worth every penny. I've had and am still having from time to time, NLP, and using mindfulness. Seeing a difference but it's not an overnight thing.

I just will need therapy to get over the shock on my poor credit card at some point  ;D x

blossom60, I know you posted this months ago but I've only just come across it and I just wanted to say how extremely helpful it is.  I was just about to post another thread about stress and anxiety issues but the link you've posted here seems to tell me just what I was looking for, exactly now.

So - very belatedly, thank you very much indeed!  :thankyou:
