Panic Attacks
On Saturday, I had a panic attack. My second one in two days. I warned my co-worker that they are back. He said, "Okay." The second one occured when I got off work that morning. My stupid neighbor was sitting outside on his balcony talking on the phone as if he was waiting for me. I smiled and nodded, and the minute I stepped inside the panic attack became full blown for at least 5 minutes. I grounded myself, but was not able to deal with the flashback I had at that time. The clothes he was wearing were the exact ones he wore the night he raped me; hence, the panic attack. I am still trying to work myself through the experience of the flashback. I am doing what my counselor told me what to do in regards to the If.... then statements, but its a challenge; however, I know I will get through it. Please keep praying. Have a great Memorial Holiday. Love ya.
