I’ve started having panic attacks again this past week. I’ve been depressed because of the holidays, so it makes the anxiety that much worse. In one situation, I found myself locked in the bathroom and I couldn’t get out. I thought I was going to be stuck in there until somebody came home–which would have been 4 hours. As it was, it took me 45 minutes to figure out how to get out. The bathroom is where I used to do most of my SIing before. I had a lot of bad thoughts of what I could do in 4 hours!
well if you didnt break down during that, you are one of the strongest people ever. the bad thoughts stay, try not to let them scare you. the anxiety sucks, i get these awful headaches all the time. however, writing really helps me. like its a temporary fix, but for the time while im pouring my heart out, writing everything and anything, the anxiety eases up. also, make a happy cd to listen to.
