Heres my story kinda long but I have to
get to the point
i had anxiety real bad in grade 12. I had
panic attacks everyday I stopped going to
school and didnt even show up to my
graduation because I was affraid of an
attack. Throughout that year I felt
horrible and I was housebound.
I ended up meeting a guy who I am now
with. In gr 12 he would always ask me to
go out and I would think ( oh god I am
gonna have an attack). I didnt want to
lose him at all! If I lost him I had
nothing else in my life that would make me
happy! So no matter how I felt ( I never
told him about my anxiety I was too
embarassed) but anyways no matter how I
felt I always went out, movies, dinner,
shopping or whatever and all of a sudden
over a couple months my anxiety was
totaly! Gone! I ended up getting a job
and going on trips overnight with no
fear!
Then about 3 years later which is right
now he got a job.I go to schoolat the
moment but I feel alone because im so not
used to being in the world by myself
again. All we really do no is so just sit
around a lot and dont go out because i'm
tired from school and he is usually really
tired from work and ends up falling
asleep. My panic attack symptoms have
come back now... Just like in grade 12
its terrible. I am at the point again
where I feel housebound once again! Im
soo stressed at school and all I do is go
to school get stressed and go to my bfs
and sit around. My brain is now
programing everytime I go out im stressed
because the only place I do go out is
school and if I try to go out to the store
or something my brain says danger
danger!
The way to get rid of panic ( accoring to
the lindon method) is to just go out no
matter how you feel! Your brain will
reprogram and say hey this is not
dangerous. If you have been to the
doctors and nothing is wrong with you..
Then there is probabbly not so dont worry.
You have to go along with panic... Say
panic here I come!!! Give me all you
got.!!!! The more you are affriad of your
symptoms the worse it will become.
Eventually when you keep going out again
you'll say hey this isnt so bad? I didn;t
faint last time in this situation....So
why am I going to faint now? I did this
before and I can do it again. Sooner or
later you will feel 100 times better! I
am convincing myself to go out again
beacause after staying home with my bf and
doing not much really I start to panic to
leave home again so i'll try it again and
you try to! Tell me how it goes
