Jimmy,
Since you posted on this board, I assume you are looking at what you can do to help your stress levels rather than discussing solutions for your physical issue. Those you can discuss in more detail on the other boards. First of all, you cannot assume that because you did something for two days, that is the cause. It is possible and even likely that it had nothing to do with your condition.
You have to look at your issues as two somewhat related issues. They are the physical and the emotional/psychological. The facts are clear. What we think affects our emotions (anger, fear, anxiety, joy, optimism). The same event can cause two opposite reactions if seen in two different ways. For example, a driver speeding and cutting you off can evoke anger if you think he is just a selfish jerk or compassion if you have reason to think he is rushing to his seriously injured child in a hospital. The event is the same. It is the thought that makes the difference.
In addition to what we think, we are affected by the amount of thought we put into a topic. If we ruminate negative thoughts over and over, our mind is being assaulted without a break. The solution is to change how we think and directly address the amount of ruminating we subject our minds to. It requires learning news and habits, so it takes some work. The good news is that the work pays off with far better emotional health. In addition, we learn a skill we can apply to hundreds of life's difficulties.
If you assume your mind is dependent on your physical improvement, you are wrong. Not only are you wrong, but you will avoid fixing the half that is causing the most disruption in your life. Spend one week daily here -->

You have to take enough control to start the process that will help you. If you feel you can't, then at least find a GOOD Cognitive Behavioural Therapist (
CBT)
Good luck, and keep us posted here about what you are doing and how it is going.
