since its everyday you really need meds and therapy,sorry ,i for get the past post at the moment so if your not doing that get to it and if your on meds then ask for it to be changed or raised. we can give you suggestions but you need more.you need to talk yourself through when it happens, telling yourself ‘this will pass’ thers nothing to be afraid of’ then believe it, trust it.This is effecting your physical health more than you know.

when you say you hate yourself, you mean if you were a stranger who walked up to ‘you’, the stranger would think you’re a bad person?

I know. I have a doctor’s appointment on Monday. I’m going to a different physician that I’ve never been to. It’s hard to reassure myself when I’m terrified out of my mind. I don’t know. No one knows about my anxiety except my bf so no one would think i was a bad person if it was a stranger. but I am a bad person. I burden my bf and show him how insecure I am in our relationship. and i panic in front of him and can’t calm down. i’m a bad person and a horrible girlfriend.

well if he didn’t go to work, then you wouldn’t have a place to live, so you’d be even more scared. It’s only a few hours, just do something to chill out and have fun

I’d say to help prevent these panic attacks, look for the books I recommended in your library. If they don’t have them, they might be able to request them in from another library.

You’ll learn crucial lessons about what causes peace.

Included within you’ll find:
A guidebook that outlines the program and teaches you how to apply a number of different tools to alleviate your anxiety
24 affirmation cards, 12 of which already contain affirmations and 12 that you’ll be using to create your own for anxiety transformation
A Thought-Stopping Plan card and 10 Stop Signs that you’ll be using as part of a mind-body technique to stop anxiety now
A journal to record your progress
A CD, narrated by Dr Wood, filled with meditative, relaxation, and guided-imagery tools for your immediate and regular use
