Providing alittle back ground. For the last 4 months I've been doing sooooo good as far as my mental health goes. I was working more consistantly and I was fight all my anxiety and doing new and challenging things, working out when I could and really just enjoying life and accepting life for what it is. And in just little under a fortnight, it feel like I have to start all over again!

Im just now healing and almost done with my second covid infection and although iwas mostly fine for all of it being stuck inside my home for 10 days , alone, has brought back all the anxiety and apprehension I felt during quarantine back then. Feel like I have to start all over. My confidence is shot! My certainty is gone and I am once again scare to me have a panic attack.

Now normal when I wasn't sick , I could handle my anxiety or panic just fine,but it feels like because I can't breath normally right now, my chances of giving my a panic attack have increased. Idk what to do, feel sooo discouraged and uneasy.

Has anyone felt similarly , and what did you do?

Hit me on the head with a hammer! Just Like Me! I’ve learned to value my well time ( Now) since I know my illness will return with a vengeance! Now I’m soaking up all the good stuff you people offer, to keep in my mind, to have when I’m suffering. Maybe that stuff will make that time a little smoother. Enough for now. I’m here for you now

Thanks! The overwhelming feeling can be soo exhausting sometimes and I really , at the end of the day, want to not have a panic attack.

I accept my illness rather than fight it. You dig?

Hope you understand me, I wish you well.
