View Full Version : fighting it ...
On the 18th I've booked myself in for help ! I'm proud but it seems so far away iv been fighting with my panic attacks if I panic about my heart I tell myself I'm fine,the other day I was on the phone to somebody I was talking so well I was super confident and felt human then I remember I started to panic and cut the conversation off !!! That let me down and iv come back to full blown panic /anxiety and now I'm a social and health anxiety once again but one thing I have accepted it's all in my head has anybody accepted panic/anxiety before with any tips to keep it at a level where you can cope ?
Acceptance is something you just have to practice (the very opposite of "fighting it" by the way).
The more you can let a panic attack just happen and subside on it's own - no trying to distract yourself, no running away, just standing your ground - the quicker you will recover afterwards. You need to keep thinkng to yourself ,"It's a panic attack, so what?" Gradually the panic attacks themselves will subside, they can't sustain themselves with nothing to feed on.
Thanks its helping :) still a week until appointment
