I hate being alone. I think it's mostly because I feel that if something happened to me and someone was here, I'd get help right away. But if I'm alone, it could be hours before someone finds me! Not that anything will happen, but that's how my mind works! :shrug:

My dog have anxiety of being left alone (I'm not joking).

Anyhow, try to understand why you are anxious for being left alone. I saw an example that something will happen to you and you won't get a proper help on time... Well please know this - anxiety or panic attack can not hurt you in any way, and what else could possible gone wrong when you're alone when you are perfectly healthy other than your thoughts that you are not, right? So keep in mind that panic attacks can't hurt you therefore try to stay alone and calm yourself by telling yourself this.
