I chose to live. Today is my second day of being out the house despite my circumstances and panic attacks. I was able to drop off my kids, go to another Dr appointment, go shopping for Xmas presents, visit my sister then go out to lunch all while feeling so anxious and fatigued. If I can anybody can. I hope this inspires some into get out there and try to fight their anxiety. Even if it’s just one person.

I can get out the house and do the same thing what the worse that can happen I have a panic attack in front of strangers

Is so many people out here that’s struggling to from anxiety and depression

We just have to get out of our own head and help others and be grateful don’t nothing last forever not even feelings keep updated on your progress u on the move no looking back now good luck

The crazy part is that people can’t tell when we panic. They would never know! First people are out taking care of their own responsibilities and second even when we panic we do it so calmly in public. That’s the case with me anyway... I’ve had a panic attack and excused myself from work etc so calmly. But yes get out there. As you stated there’s so many of us but some hold it together a little better. I panic at home all the time and honestly it feels the same as when I’m out.

Way to go Julie. Just getting out there and out of the house and doing things is a big positive. It helps going forward by helping to give you the strength to overcome your anxiety top some degree, and getting out and about I think redeces depression which seems to go hand in hand with anxiety. Good luck to you & keep it up!

Wow, congratulations! This is really inspiring 😊
