My personal life is in chaos at the moment but I don't have time to deal with the emotional upheaval of addressing it all properly as I have a DC with additional needs and lots of other committments over the next couple of weeks! I can hardly eat, everything just feels like cotton wool in my mouth, even when I slow my breathing down deliberately my heart still races, and I'm all shaky and twitchy.

Any tips for how to feel less physically anxious? I'm doing all the deep breathing and trying to do meditation and mindfulness but my mind races so much that it's not very successful.

I was going to suggest CBS oil but can see you're ordering some. For me I can't have any caffeine either.
