Its been 1 and half years since my panic attacks started. They come and go but I don't fear them. What I fear is the things I have been struggling with. I don't feel i Have a purpose anymore like I used to. I used to be extremely motivated, but than the darkness crept in, destroying my life. Every day I thing about  the frozen flask in my fridge how easy it would be just to take that drink. I don't feel well at all, I try very hard to fight this without drugs Editbut I am out of answers, if there is a God I really could use a small miracle.

Edit per forum rules:  no discussion re self harm.  Thank you.

Everyone of us is just a little different, enough so that one size does not fit all, in mental health care this is
compounded many times. You may not fear the PAD attacks, but they have had their effect on you and your
hope, so you have found us, I wish everyone could that suffers.
This is a place of hope, many different kinds in fact, free resources, sharing with us, reading other peoples
problems and even trying to help them, we even have Hope for us, many have already received help and
have gone on with their lives. Nothing is for sale here, all we ask is don't let yourself crawl inwards so deep
that we can't Love you out, stay with us, we have Hope for You, "God does hear and cares for You". Peace

Welcome to HealingWell and know that many of us have been to the dark side more than once and in fact more than twice.  I was dx 31 years ago with anxiety, depression, PTSD, OCD and a sprinkling of this and that thrown in for good measure.

I have had to crawl out of the sad place to many times and there were times I felt I would not make it but no way would I give up and you won't either as I promise if you work long and hard and perhaps take the medication you can get back to leading a productive and happy life.

I am going to post here something that I read often when I am struggling and I hope you won't be offended.

"Don't ask God to take away your problems, instead ask God to guide you and give you faith, strength and courage to face the problem!"

 

I was dx with a serious medical problem in August of 2012 and nearly every day I have to ask for help but once I find the faith to believe that I can deal with my problem,  I head out to slay dragons.

We are here for you.

 

I wish you peace,

Kitt

Thanks for the replies, I just needed to let someone know how I've been feeling. I will stand fast and keep moving forward even though its hard sometimes. Its hard when know one else gets how you feel.
