I had another panic attack last night. I hate to say this but I had three alcoholic beverages to ease my nerves. It's one of the only things to calm me down during an attack.
I am still optimistic things will get better. I just can't picture me living the rest of my life having panic attacks. I am in my thirties now. Let's say I live into my eighties. Can you picture an eighty year old man in his rocking chair saying "OMG, I'm having a panic attack, I can't function!" I cannot picture such a thing.
Hit me with your best shot. I am here to soak up your best advice. I have done CBT with mixed results. I understand that there is an element that one must face their fears in order to overcome them, and I've done a lot of that. I think before I'm forty I could be out of the woods with these attacks. But I'm here to take any advice at all. Let me know.
Thank you.
