I have tried to get my breathing under control. I do it for a little and then I mind goes off on another tangent. Then I have to refocus for as long as I can until my mind wanders off again. Maybe I need to start breathing from my stomach.

When then pain is too much I need to put an hand on my neck to stop the bulging of muscles in my neck. It can come back as quickly as I stop it. It hasn't been this bad for a year or two but maybe that has something to do with my ceasing use of Klonolpin. I stopped this over the last year. So nothing too drastic.

Sometimes I can overthink things until they are mush in my head. Taking each day as it comes is a thought that I need to take on board.
