My anxiety is tipped off by health concerns. If I get a shooting pain in my heart for example all of a sudden I freak out and spiral into a panic. I just watched the intro dvd, and I had a quick question. How do you say, "What if..." and have that calm you down if the question is, "What if I am havi...

Ok I know this was supposed to make me laugh - it did, but I also teared up a little cause its nice to know I am not alone. The one about showering so you will look good for the paramedics is SO me. I do my hair and put on makeup and I think "I don't want my hair to look all oily if I die." What a s...
