Hi miabella
I'm not sure I can help but thought I'd post.
I know exactly what your going through, when I have anxiety attacks, and I know when
there coming on,(most of the time anyway) I start going very quiet, hardly talk to anyone
only answering when I'm spoken to, because I'm trying to keep myself calm. I try to get away
from everyone even if it's just for a short time to sort my breathing out, (I've even sat on the
toilet, just to get away from everyone, no one can bother me there) ..
Do you talk about your feelings when the anxiety starts up to your husband?
I know sometimes, just admitting my feelings to my OH, can and does help, it's like I've opened
a shook up bottle of pop, and then took the lid off.....
That's mostly how I cope, doing the 4,7,8 breathing, and focusing on 3things, ‘what I hear, see, feel.'
Now that's a hard one if your minds racing, just trying to focus on three things, but if your mind
takes you somewhere else, then start again. It does work....
Try and get some ‘me' time on holiday, say, you stay at the hotel,while hubby takes the kids out?
For an hour or so......gives you some relaxing time.......
I really hope you have a lovely holiday, let us know how you get on,
