Anxiety Attacks.

[MickeyD]

Oh I can so relate to poorly timed moves. When I moved a few months ago, my schedule went like this: The weekend before I moved I was away at a four day conference. Then I moved on a Friday. The next day I had to attended an 8 hour class (and turn in two papers.) That Monday I left for my annual 6 day mission trip. None of these things could be changed. It definitely caused me a lot of stress and anxiety....and tears....

Moving in with your parents for a month sounds like a good plan. My parents were a huge help when I moved. I didn't move in with them, but the Sunday after I moved (when I was at work) they came down and completely unpacked my kitchen & bedroom. Thank God for them, because it's possible that to this day neither room would be unpacked if they hadn't.

I just really want to ditto using breathing techniques to deal with anxiety attacks. I used to get them a lot, and the best way for me to deal with them was to close my eyes, concentrate on slowing down my breathing, then when I was feeling calmer, find something that I could work on in my immediate control, & work on that.

And if that didn't work, I'd start drinking until I forgot what I was stressing about.
