Going out

[kkat37]

So I haven’t been out the house in 12 days and now I have to go out tomorrow and I am a little nervous I am going to have a panic attack. I feel safer when I am in my own house. I just started my paxil back a little over a week ago, any tips will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

make sure to take some deep breaths and think positive! and know that it’s okay if you panic, you’ll be back home before you know it!!

i definitely relate 2 this. i used to have panic attacks whenever i even stepped out of the house, and had agoraphobia and didnt leave the house for a longgggg time. my advice to u is to just keep reminding urself that anxiety and panic attacks can not actually hurt u or do anything to u, no matter how powerful or real they seem. i always used to think that if i left the house i would have a seizure or a brain aneurysm or something. then i began to have panic attacks from fear of having panic attacks. its a terrible place to be stuck in. u prob have already had to leave the house as im a lil late to this post, but id really love to help support u in overcoming ur panic disorder and agoraphobia. hmu if u ever need support
