Good morning and welcome!

I don't have much time just now...driving carpool this morning, but I will respond more soon.

However, for now, I wanted to let you know that you'll want /need to drop your e-mail addie from your screen name for your own security purposes.

This is a public forum, and you don't want just anyone having access to it.

You can safely add it to you profile page.:)

Talk soon,

Hi OO and again, welcome!

I am glad that you have had some comfort in reading other's experiences, and that now you have decided to join in the support.:)

My sympathies regarding your current panic issues. I know how difficult this is to go through.

What methods of coping do you use for relief?

I hope you have been able to get help from your doctor/therapist for getting a good plan of management going.

How about self help? We have some great material in our Resources at the top of the main page here that you may find beneficial...so be sure to check it out!

Keep posting with us as well. Sharing with others who understand and care is key.:)

Talk soon,

S.C.

Welcome! Fellow anxiety / panic sufferer here. Anxiety feelings are truly horrible, especially if you've not experienced them before or, as it appears in your case, just don't ever let up.

Have you been to the doc? about a year and a half ago I finally went to visit the doc about my life-long anxiety and it was helpful.

I also read a book called "Hope and Help for Your Nerves" by Claire Weekes that talks about how our overactive / sensitive nerves can wreck havoc. She provides some advice on how to desensitize them. While not a cureall, I found the insight very helpful as part of my cognitive coping skills.
