Facing my fears, in my physical condition made me worse and worse until the meds took effect in my body, which took years. Thoughts are not always the trigger for anxiety. You can have anxiety with no thought trigger if your body is screwed up. I am happy for your success! Good work! Studchick
i lived stuck in my house for the first 3 days when i had my first panic attack. i mean i know i cant relate to you but i was so afraid to leave my house because i thought i was going to have another panic attack. on my birthday my mom told me if i wanted to go to the mall and i said no because i had the fear of panic attacks occuring inpublic. but i faced my fears and told my mom that we should go. it was hell walking from my house to the train. when we got on the train i felt uneasy and told my mom we should go back but she kept me calm and we just went to the mall. turns out, if you top thinking about it it wont happen. after that day i wasnt afraid to leave my house anymore. i still have a little fear though but its a different fear like i cant tell the difference when im nervous and if im gonna have a panic attack. little by little im getting over it though.
Hi,
While my story is quite different I know what it feels like to feel worthless. It is no walk in the park. Just hang onto the fact that feelings follow thoughts, and the thought can be changed. There is always hope. And you have my best wishes that you get through this and find that hope again.
