So glad you got out yesterday despite a panic attack
And off out again today that's fab !!
I know how hard it is and I really hope you start to improve soon. It's hard for people to sympathise unless they have suffered I know my mum just couldn't get her head round it with me and would get quite cross with me when I just couldn't go out. Last September I had a course of cbt to overcome the panic/anxiety attacks. I was very cynical but oh my god the woman worked wonders and turned my life around in 6 weeks. I know I will always be vulnerable and carry a rescue spray that I've only used twice since sept. It's true what they say about the mind and how powerfull it is but the good thing is that it's so possible to retrain and change the thought process that brings the attacks on.
Might be worth asking your gp it's worth a try xx
