Well done for forcing yourself to take the dog out. I am new to this site too. I first suffered from anxiety and panic 30 years ago but got my life on a very good even keel about 15 years ago through good CBT and meds.
Having a blip at the moment. It is not good but I know through past experience that I can conquer(sorry not too good at spelling) this.
It is all a matter of retraining your thought patters. The brain is very powerful and at the moment you and I and many others are thinking the wrong thoughts and with help we can retrain to think the right ones.
It can be hard but taking each day individually and not trying to climb the mountain to the top straight away you will get there. I did and look forward to getting there again.
It never fully goes away but you learn to see it for what it is and manage it.
