I really wish i could help you but i guess i can't help when i'm a mess myself but i can tell you your not alone, i was where you are with my depression too at one time then it gets better, then it gets worse again,,,its a painful cycle that your not alone in although i know you feel your alone. i quit my job too due to panic and almost lost my husband too but we did work things out. Its hard for someone else to understand something they've never went through. Hang in there, take it day by day and go for a walk, it helps sometimes:hugs:

Well, something I be learned from this is not to give up, because this condition feeds from the fear it produces, it´s like an infinite loop, where you became anxious and brings some nasty sensations, then comes the fear for those sensations, and then more anxiety for the fear, and then the sensations become more strong or your anxiety adds more.

What I can say to you is not let the anxiety feed from the fears it induce, one must learn to let it pass trough, and not feed it with fear and accept is just anxiety and no matter how ugly may be, is not going to kill you.

This thing is one of two options:
-Feeling awful and be afraid of it
-Feeling awful but doing what you need to and not let the fear overcome you.

I know is more easier said than done (I posted not long ago something about a fear of something in the heart), but we must be firm and keep going...

Remember always what the anxiety fears is when you let it come to you.

Sorry if it ws to long, but in part it was something I wanted to let off my chest, and stay positive, is one of the most important things about this condition.

Hi Kaz ! I had them bad for years , the only thing i can say is you will have to try and control it when you feel it coming on ,and god knows i know it isnt easy . Concentrate on your breathing ,dont take short shallow breathes ,this is how us panic merchants breath when we are taking one LOL , Long slow deep breathes ;) .I take diazepam wenever its gettin to much for me , dont realy take panic attacks anymore . Dont give up hope , you will learn to deal with it :)
