emotional stress

[Guest guest]

hi bee...

i havent written in a while now. but there a many things i have been feeling

since last i did write. i have been on the diet for about 20 months. i felt i

was progressing with certain things, and inbetween i would have these

" breakdowns " . i would completely lose it emotionally, and have all of these

phsical symptoms along with it. i wouldnt be able to do much at that time

phsically, or the symptoms would get worse. i would just wait it out, and

eventually get stronger again.

since my brother was shot, and my mom had a heart attack i have been trying to

take it easy as much as possible. i hvae been working on deep breathing, taking

baths, and releasing emotion. as you know about a week after my brother was shot

i experienced a tightness in my throat, and then my heart starting hurting. all

of that released about a month ago for a couple weeks...and now is back again.

its seems to be worse now. my throat gets so tight sometimes that it feels as

though i am choking. sometimes its like a gaging feeling. a lot of burping, it

seems as though if i am siting or lying down i am ok, but once i get up and

start moving around or begin talking my heart starts beating really fast, and i

feel pressure in my body especially in the head, neck, chest, ribcage area. i

have been super emotional lately, and have released alot more emotion through

crying breakdowns, i talk to friends, a sister at a church, and others to help.

the emotions are clearing out...but the phsical stuff is still around. sometimes

my lungs feel tight, and my adrenals hurt. i have been watching my sea salt

consumption, and i am ok on that. i have had to cut down on buter...and cannot

tolerate egg drinks anymore. it makes my throat super tight. i have seen docs,

done blood tests, checked out my heart. i know last time you said you couldnt

help me anymore...but i am wondering if you can give me a little reassurance

now...sometimes i feel scared.
