You are almost there. Breathe. Slowly inhale Peace & Calm, hold for a few moments and

then slow and easy and long, exhale the fear. Drop your shoulders down away from your

ears as you do this. You are going to be okay. You've got this. It won't be long before you

are in the safety of your home once again.

Anxiety can't harm you. We are here surrounding you with support. Breathe :) xx

Remember you need tonight to regenerate, I call it

my "me time". Try to stay in the present moment tonight while

you take time to breathe and relax. :) xx

I went through this many years ago. I had terrible panic and anxiety and just driving to the job was a huge deal. Then worrying about getting through the day and back home again. Luckily I found a good Dr. who helped me with medication and I was finally able to function anxiety and panic free. If you are not getting help I hope you will find some. You shouldn’t have to live that way. ❤️

Hi Scared1234 - I have been reading through your post and the responses you have received, and would like to join in, however being from UK - quite old (almost 75) I do not understand one of your replies to replies, could you enlighten me: What or who is the V A?

Also you initially said, '7 hours into the work day - starting to freak out.' Exactly what were you doing when you started to freak out - how did it start? Think of the hour before what changed?
