Hi,
I'm not sure this is a proper success as I know I have a long way to go and it was a small thing, but this morning it felt huge!
I get the bus every morning if the bus is busy I panic. Today the busy was busy and more people were getting on and it was noisy. I started to feel hot and frightened thats how my panic starts and I thought don't panic and felt myself getting worked up.
Then I remembered something I had read on here yesterday about invited the panic to come. So I thought 'give me more, make me feel hotter, I want to feel more scared, give me more panic, make me feel even sicker, make me worry more' even after saying it once I felt my body relax, I had to say it quite a few times, but within a few bus stops I felt calm, I wasn't totally calm but to the way I normally feel it was calm! I actually prevented myself from having a panic attack. :yesyes:
This is the first time ever I have felt that I had any control over my panic and it felt so good!! :yahoo: I walked off that bus feeling so happy!
