Went into town today had panic attack T went through the roof I try everything that I have been told to do but nothing worked I just wanted it to stop if I had been in a place where traffic was when this happened I do think I would have ended it.2 police officers came over to where I was sitting and asked if I was all right I told them what was happening 1 went and got me a bottle of water as my mouth was so dry and when I felt better I got then to walk me to the taxi rank and went home.i was told by my mentor that if you get into trouble when your out there will all ways be someone to turn to.
I posted this here as I needed to tell somebody I don’t want to tell my family or the people who are helping me with my mental health issues I just feel I have let everybody down and that I am a failure and have let my mental issues and my T win
But I am not a person to just quit and I try every new idea on how to cope with Tbut now I have had it 24/7 for over 4 years In both ears I do feel that I just can’t cope with it any longer.
Sorry if this might upset anyone
Rest assured I am fine now and I will get back and go out I will not let this win I have to do it not just for me but for my family and all the people that are helping me and for all suffers of T to show T can not win and must not win we all have to be strong.
Thanks for the BTA for being their for us all and for all the people on this forum who help people with there kind words and their ideas on how to cope with T.

Feel the same Even for me WERE 6 months only. So alone and desperated. Keep telling myself i can overcome this as i heard from so many people who lived their lifes despite of It.
Go behind t! Look after yourself. Search for solutions and activities that you love. Talk to people who care. Wait for neuromod that will be on the ireland and german Market on june already.
Our limbic (emotional) system is very close to the auditory system and it doesn't take much for the two to work together....making matters worse! I find that by seeking distraction (cooking, gardening, acting) my mind concentrates outside my head (whatever horrendous noises are going on) and I cope - but I certainly know moments of despair. CBD oil and Kalms may help, and just centralising on your breathing and Mindfulness are certainly good props.
Do not be scared to share with your family and your friends or what you're going through. I used to get severe anxiety attack I went to the doctor and I was prescribed clonazepam 0.5 mg. I still get anxiety from the T but it's not that bad. But I'm also fighting OCD. I know it's hard we have to take it one day at a time.
Thanks for your kind words I have now Told my family and the people that are helping me and they have all said I should be proud that went out there and tried to beat it and the more I do it the better I shou. Hi feel.
You are amazing. I myself suffered from agoraphobia for some time. In the end I beat it but I did not have T at the same time so getting out there must seem like climbing Mount Everest to you right now. All the evidence shows that by getting support and facing our fears we can overcome them, but easier said than done. I am now using the same techniques I used to conquer agoraphobia to conquer my anxiety at the T. Some days are easier than others. But when things are bad I always remind myself of past difficulties, "that passed, so will this this". It is never easy though and you have my absolute admiration for what you achieved going out there, getting through it and reaching out for help to move on. Inspiring courage.
