Journal Entry for June 14, 2008 Mood

Saturday, June 14, 2008 | A General Update story

I have not kept up with my journal.I went for a week without any panic attacks then all of a sudden they just hit me one after another.I never did start taking the buspar,i have not gone back to therapy ether,i dont know whats happening to me,i just feel like shutting my self up in the house and away from the world.I wont do that though,i have kids i have to take care of,but it is getting hard going on like nothing is wrong.I am scared i am going to have a break down with everything piling up.I know i have to take one thing at a time and work it through,and i am doing my best to do just that,but then you hit that one thing that just cant seem to be worked out no matter how hard you try,i want to move on to the next thing,but i keep finding my mind wondering back to it,then the panic kicks in.I feel like i just cant win this one.I know everything will work out in the end,its wondering how long it will take until the end comes that panicks me.

thats the bad thing about panic attacks , you never know when they are going to hit you , you can be ok one minute and the next your not . i have mine under control for the most part with the lorazapam . i only take 1 mg. in the evening. just hang in there and everything will be ok. i have learned that when i have an attack if i tell myself its a panic attack and i'm not going to die over and over it helps me to snap out of it . love you xoxoxxoxoxx lizzy

I can sympathise with you hun, it's frustrating and upsetting, and not knowing when it will end can be just as bad as the panic. Hang in there. I'm thinking of you and sending you my best wishes. You won't have a breakdown - us with panic attacks are actually very strong and resilient, we've learnt we have to be, and you are the same. xx

Hey Rita! Don't give up you are doing wonderful! Just remember you can get over this! This always passes and just try not to focus on your anxiety. Just focus on something else and meditate and relax to clear your mind. I have moments when I just chill out in my bathtub, 20 min every day...something that keeps me sane. Luv ya!!!

Your doing good Rita, keep your mind on what you are doing as best as you can, just keep yourself positively focused and pretty soon you will not keep thinking about the panic, try to do things that interest you, so you have an easier time. Good luck

Once I found out I wasn't going to die, my panic attacks stopped..Maybe you need to get to the root of the panic.. Exactly what are you afraid of ?

I hope things get easier for you
