and basically she knew nothing! This is the reason I have never went to one. I explained my life story and all she did was so wow that can definately cause anxiety. I have been through a lot with surgeries since i'm a child and thank God i'm ok now! I'm trying to figure out why I am getting this anxiety and panic attacks. She honestly had no answer and told me it seems that I want to help the symptoms. (Well duh!) She recommended something called FREEDOM FROM FEAR. I am trying to find cognitive behavioral therapy in my area can someone explain exactly what it is? Is it a group? I need some info please! I am also reading a book Power Over Panic it is very good!
