I am in the midst of a very bad panic attack right now. My chest is tight, I feel like I can't breathe. I talked to my stepdad earlier today and I think the stress of that triggered this. I took a Xanax and I am trying to do some deep breathing but I'm still struggling.

Sorry you are struggling. Do you have a pet you can pet and play with. My dog makes me feel better sometimes.

PM,

How are you feeling today? Better I hope! Were you able to get some sleep and wake up calmer?

Great job on using your coping skills to get you through. Keep up the good work.

I will continue to keep your family situation in my prayers!

S.C.
