TRUE LIFE: I PANIC
Suffering from panic attacks is not
uncommon among young people. Almost two
percent of the American population has
been diagnosed with some form of panic
disorder which generally onsets in
adolescence. Do you suffer from regular
panic attacks? Do you feel extremely
uncomfortable in social situations? Is
your anxiety something you can share with
your friends and family? Or does it
isolate you? What kinds of problems does
your extreme anxiety cause in your daily
life? Are you currently getting - or
planning on seeking - treatment?
This episode of True Life is looking for
people who are willing to share their
experiences of what it is like to live
with panic disorder.
