a little down

last week I had a major panic attack...I mean like running around the house wanting to call 911 level panic attack. Since than my confidence is way way down. Had been a year since I had one like that. I just can not seem to pick myself up and that in itself is scaring me. I am tired and question every feeling thinking something is wrong.

Does anyone else feel episodes that last a bit? Thanks.

Hi GMF and welcome back...

...although I am sorry it is due to having an attack. I know how disheartening it is to have a challenging period, especially after enjoying such a nice reprieve.

The important thing to focus on is that you have not lost ground...you are just on a temporary detour...and it happens to us all. You just need to draw deep, use your coping skills more than ever now...and get back on the path where you temporarily left off.

Perhaps looking for a new skill to add to your toolbox is just what you need...or revisiting tried and true ones from the past...or both. Either way, don't forget about our Resources!

You can do this, and we are here to help. Stay encouraged that you will get back to where you need to be soon! We are cheering you on.
