HyperVen felt like coming home

For thirteen years I had hyperventilation symptoms every minute of the day. And boy have I searched for a solution! Until I ended up here. HyperVen felt like coming home. What a recognition! Immediately I started the therapy. That was kind of a shock at first. I had so many stress discharges. But your answers were such a consolation. As well as Rob’s knowledge of the hyperventilation phenomenon…

The cause was years of stress building and misery

Time after time I had to take a break for a week. Just because my body could not handle all those stress discharges. After half a year things got better. But I could not completely get rid of it. Then I tried antidepressants. Because HyperVen alone was not enough. This was due to years of stress building and misery. Not strange if you suffer from the symptoms for 13 years with 5 children. I was totally against using medication. I was just sad because of all the misery. But finally I gave in…

Finally it became calm in my head

And the miracle happened… Although the start of the antidepressants was followed by a few nasty weeks and many stress discharges. It finally became calm in my head. The heart pounding disappeared. As well as my fears and other symptoms…

I am not completely there yet. Because I am still very tired after six months. My muscles are still not calm. I clamp my jaws together at night. My body still has these weird jerks. I really need to keep doing HyperVen for a while. Because my breathing is still not quite right. I have not done the therapy for a few months. Because the AD was enough to handle. But I’m going to pick that therapy again.

No doctor knew what caused it

My heart has been beating for two lives. After dinner my heart usually pounded for two hours. My entire body was affected. I always wondered what was going on. And no one, no doctor knew what caused it. And now that is all gone! so wonderful…

Loving your body again

I say: “Love your body again with every victory you make!” And say this 100 times a day to yourself. “There is the stupid hyperventilation again. But you will not get me under… .And you cannot scare me either. Because nothing is going to happen anyway”. Write it on a note and stick it to your fridge if necessary!! And consider antidepressants if progress stalls for a few months.

Strength to you all. And hopefully I gave you some courage with my message.

Love Sandra.
