Hello, I just wanted to say first thank you for being brave and joining the group, I am new also. I also find myself getting very angry and upset with myself for my panic attacks and anxiety and constantly feeling in a state of not knowing if I’m going crazy or not. If you want to get out of the house, that is the first step to getting out of the house. It is a good sign that you want to communicate with the people in your life that you care about and that care about you. My advice otherwise would be to find some sort of hobby or outlet. For me, it is anything creative like writing, learning and instrument, painting and it really distracts you from your anxiety and panicked feelings for a while at least.

Welcome Purpletulip to the group of ADS. I’m truly sorry for what you’re going through. I am so sorry you are dealing with such a difficult situation. These forums are great for sharing burdens, and venting. There is always hope even in the most difficult moments of our lives. Let me tell you that you do have a purpose in life and it is important that you discover what are you here for? And I know from my experiences that sometimes we do not know how to handle suffering. Suffering is neither good nor bad. And if we embrace it we can allow our transformation into a better person. In spite of this situation let me tell you that you are important and valuable person and you are a person worth of dignity. Please hang in there! Do not give up! Maybe you can take out the good of this situation that you have to deal with. If one therapy does not work for you, I encourage you to seek another one. Have you ever thought seeking Christian counseling? This therapy works through things like this. You are valuable and worth of fighting for. Please let me tell you my friend that you are not alone in this battle. Do not give up! Hang it there! This list–ly is extremely important for you are going through: list.ly/list/1CE4-looking-u.... Sending you hugs. I will keep you in my prayers, my friend. Keep us posted, OK?.

Thank you and yes I have tried Christian counseling it helped a little bit but I just didn't like the fact that when your talking they just look at you instead of giving feed back on how u should handle things not just those counselors but alot do that and it's hard to explain how u feel when they DNT feel what your going threw so I just feel I should talk to people that's going threw tha same thing and we can help each other that's why I found this group because I love to help other people with their problems but I never talk about mine so I'm greatfull that we can all help each other
