Sit down, write out exactly the sequence of events that turn into the "off" switch.
Then, write out how it was before.
It will show you where you can put a different picture, word, or action to get you past the "fear of panic".
Best wishes!

I say you need to have lots of sex now and try not think about it. So that you wouldn't be afraid to have sex, and leave the bondage out..that can't really help panic attacks (lol) I had too..sorry.

Anyway it's like falling off a horse, gotta get back in the saddle and try it again.

I was just talking to my therapist about this last night. About a year ago the same exact thing happend to me. To put it bluntly, I got off of him, ran into the kitchen and stuck my head under cold water, went back in the living room and told him he had to take me to the hospital. Talk about a buzz kill. It's funny looking back on it now, but it was miserable at the time. I worry a little bit that it will happen again, but like someone else said, hop in the saddle and try again!

    I did the dumbest thing today.  I charged my earbuds, unplugged the block and put the block in my little bag instead of the earbuds.  I wasn't happy about that when I got to the gym.  What a dummy!

    Reality Check

    Years ago, I won a mirrored armoire from my job.  It's in my bedroom but I rarely stand in front of it.  Yesterday, I had to have a dexascan done so I had to change into a gown.  There was a full length mirror in the changing room.  I'm aware that I gained 5 to 7 pounds over the last year from cheating on Keto but I didn't know what it looked like.  It was a reality check.
