I hope things get better marjan. I have been told when I get anxious I hold my breath. I don't notice it, but other people do. When I'm starting to get worked up or am real anxious my bf or others will look at me and say "BREATHE!" Sometimes they even have to shake me to get my attention. I don't realize I'm holding my breath. It does help if they deep breath with me.

Lynn I like the image of everything going down the drain.
