You are not alone.  Take it one hour at a time if u have to.  Take long deep breaths.  Focus on caring for the 2 year old and it will help u get outta your head.  The previous poster gives good advice.  And know u are not alone.  You are valuable.  You have a right to a safe, happy life. Tell yourself everyday you deserve it.  And u got us if u need us.  (:0)

I understand--I too suffer from panic disorder--I am going to begin using the past tense because this thing begins with a thought and the consuming thoughts that try to pull you back down into this maze.  Begin to fight hun--do not let it control you never say it is harder--it is time for you to fight this--see it as an obstacle and begin to pursue your happiness--what do you do? do you pray? meditate? are you fighting this alone? do you have people to talk to? why are you doing this alone? At one point I thought I was going crazy--I believed that everything around me was showing me that I was dying--my thoughts were heavy.  But those thoughts are the said thing that this disorder feeds on and you must begin to say STOP NO--force urself to LIVE--it will be hard--some days are harder than others...but you seem to need to seek some external help...you can always msg me if you want

Try listening to relaxing music such as classical or sounds like ocean, birds etc.  take a hot bath.  It's hard (I'm in my head a lot too) but try to allow your head to go black, blank.  Take a slow casual walk alone--- if you hav anyone around it will make your brain work in conversation or feeling on display.  And you may want go to doctor and get on something that helps calm the nerves. You aren't alone a lot of poeple suffer with anxiety.  I felt like I was having a panic attack the other day I got so scared that something was true that wasn't!!!   It's all just suggestions. And you have us if u need to talk.   Peace.  (:0)
