Greetings

[Critter]

I have had a revelation this week that I am suffering from anxiety and having some panic attacks. I started doing research a few days ago after a bad experience. I was getting ready for a job interview and I had an upset stomach, could not sleep the night before then after the interview I became dizzy and vomited.
When I found this site I read the symptoms and made of list of each one I have been experiencing over the past 10 years, the list became very long. Good news is when I had the second interview I did not have a panic attack. Now that I know what is happening to me what is the next step? When I start a new job I do not want to be sick. My favorite quote seems to apply to this situation: " Do not let reality get in the way of your dreams"

Hello Critter:welcome: to you!

Love the quote - how very true!

Next step is to try not to anticipate 'the next time' - fear of it happening again feeds the viscious circle of fear-anx-panic-fear.

Just because you had a pa the first time doesn't necessarily mean you will have another. And you've proved that by your second interview!

If it does happen again however, try and ride it out and don't allow it to have the upper hand. And, above all, don't fear!

There are plenty here to help and support you - and if you follow the links over on the left there, you'll find loads of helpful information too.

Pleased to meet you!

Hi Critter,

Welcome to the site. Love the quote! I would suggest you take one day at a time and try to focus on the present. I tend to worry and panic about things that haven't happened yet. When I focus on things, even if it gets to be second by second it helps me. You will find many here who understand and will give you support.

Hugs,

Laura
