Depression Support Group
Depression is a real and debilitating condition that is often misunderstood by family and friends. Its meaning can range from a prolonged period of sadness to an actual mental illness with specific symptoms. Find and share experiences with others who are going through the same struggles.
Haven't had one for what seems like ages, but this one just kinda snuck up on me. Guess PMT has something to do with it and the fact that it's the first day back at work after a week off and the day has just been dragging on...
Don't like panic attacks! My heart is not racing, but I can feel each beat very distinctly in my chest. Any prayers would be very much appreciated.

I have severe panic disorder... hate getting panic attacks :(
Unsound, I do try to distract myself, doesn't always work tho... Sometimes I do a little exercise where I right down what happened immediately prior to the attack, how I rate my feelings, what I fear will happen, what supports the fears, what doesn't support the fear and then rerate my feelings/emotions. Usually works well. The panic is easing off a bit.
Walk (or pace like me), you know it will pass.
