I can relate to your story this week as all week I have been trying to unblock an account I have with a client. I have been back and forwards through the process, forms, sign off, etc, and alas account still blocked. I have been panicking I am unable to complete any work for said client as I cannot access their system. My body reacted in exactly the same way. Heavy panting, sweating, beating myself up, "I am going to get told off that I have not done any work!" It is all just our thoughts and our thoughts are not always true!

Thanks for sharing this Gill. It's a horrid set of feelings isnt it? Our thoughts (particularly when we have been brought up to be 'good girls') are so disabling when, in truth what's happening it isn't of our doing. Modern life seems intent on throwing 'stuff' at us and we could all do with learning to reset expectations, step away and go and make a cuppa ! x
