Status: I knew I was having a panic attack. I hadn't had one in a while, though, and I'd forgotten how they made everything like it-and I- was going to fall apart. How they reminded me of how trapped I was.
About Me
I was diagnosed in 05-06" with GAD, panic disorder, and agoraphobia. With the help of support groups, therapist and Prozac I regained my life and considered myself 90% recovered. I decided to wean myself off of medication and stopped them in December 2016. Ever since then my anxiety and panic symptoms have gotten worse. I re-started therapy, have just joined this online support group and have re-started my Prozac. I am about 70% relapsed to my dark days with this disorder and experience constant anxiety and panic symptoms. My biggest fear is becoming agoraphobic and my panic completely debilitating me again. Last time, it took my life away from me. If that were to happen again, I would lose my career (veterinary technician) which is my biggest PASSION in life. I refuse to let this happen. I'm here for help and support.
