thanks Irichards
Hug
thanks for the encouragment. I used to be able to do things a couple years ago that i can't do now without going into panic. And i have no idea why. I kind of wish i could go to therapy but i dont know if it would really help and i dont know how i would pay for it. Also, i don't know what my boyfriend and friends would think about it. but i hope you are doing well and have a great week =)
Hug
Thanks for your message. On aug. 4, I have been sober for 10 months. Being disabled is the best thing that ever happened to me. I didn't realize that taking care of everyone else left nothing for me. God bless!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Close Anxiety
lrichards hasn’t entered any details for this support group.Close Panic Attacks
I'm a 42 year old woman, married and have 1 child. I'm originally from Michigan and moved to Atlanta, Georgia about 10 years ago. I started having panic attacks in the car about 4 months after I moved and blamed the heavy traffic. But I just started counseling and my counselor said that my attacks stem from before I moved (which I couldn't believe at first)! With my faith in God and outside help I'm beginning to see that these attacks aren't just coming "out of the blue".
Treatments
- Psychotherapy Working / Worked
- I'm in the processing of talking about my anxiety and so far so good.
- Xanax Working / Worked
- I took my first anxiety pill (Xanax) in February of this year (my dad's wife gave me a couple for the road) to help with panic attacks on the trip back from Florida. Then I took one a couple weeks later when I had to drive downtown. My first pill really calmed me down --kind of sleepy. When I took one again it helped somewhat. I don't generally like to take pills so I recently started taking passionflower (a herb)and it works pretty good for me (haven't experienced any side effects).
