I was wondering if anyone could talk me through this. I am scared and afraid even though I know I'm safe. It's just that with panic attacks and all, sometimes it's hard for me to relax and take deep breaths without hyperventilating or holding my breath.
I think I just need encouragement and to know that I am not alone and that people care about me and love me for me. Sometimes I forget that.
