Just want to stop having panic...

Just want to stop having panic attacks. I hate feeling afraid. Anyone else up to talk.? Feeling alone and scared once again. 😔

Hi LeX, I hate the scared feeling as well. It's terrible isn't it to feel your stomach reacting like it's on a roller coaster. Waves of fear.

It's even worse than that, it's as if I'm drifting in and out of life. I feel like I'm running down a long dark road with no where to go to, and it's so scary. I'm sick of being afraid, I'm so sick of panic attacks.

LeX, that's a good analogy, running down a long dark road w/no where to go. I'm glad you are in this forum. It's really nice having a place that we can let down our guard and feel safe from the fear for a while. Nice group of people in this community. xx

Yes, I'm very thankful to this group.!

LeX, do you wake up with morning anxiety like I do. It's one of the hardest thing to get rid of. I've come a long way since my anxiety first started but something is preventing me from getting over the morning fear. Even knowing about cortisol being high starting at 4am and getting less as the day goes on, doesn't help. I'm also agoraphobic which still is a struggle for me to get out. That fear is like a shadow, always behind me ready to pounce. I'm sorry you are feeling alone and scared. I just reached for a chocolate bar because it makes me feel a little better but not the wisest thing to do. Hope your evening goes a little better for you. Sending hugs. xx

I have it bad during the night. /: and same, I barley leave my house, I'm afraid I'll like die if I'm out alone. It's just ridiculous how much anxiety can hold you back from a normal life. /:

I hate that feeling so much. I get panic attacks and derealization around the same time every year, and even now, months in advance, I am trying to strengthen my mind and keep it sharp so that I can fight it the best I can. It really does get better over time. Sending you support and a hug. Have some faith. Get a good night's sleep and deal with it tomorrow, one day at a time.

Yes, im also tired of being scared. I don't even know exactly what I'm scared of. I do worry about my health A LOT. Reading so much about cancer and how everything causes cancer these days has made my anxiety super high and worry about stupid cancer!!' It even sounds silly when I write this. I also feel like I'm in a dark place, hole and need to run. I'm going to therapy to try and understand the root/ origin of this fear! So far it all stems from my childhood and growing up in fear of my dad, step dad. Why brain??! Why?!

I am the same. I am at the point where im fed up. Fed up of going to doctors to be told " come back if symptoms get worse" they never seem to want to help. Just feel like im screaming for help and no one notices. My husband is worried about me because everyday i never feel right. I dont want to go out because of fear of panic attacks and the head pressure i ve just recently started to experience is horrendous. I just sometimes want to switch off. X
