Anne-Marie,
This panic thing can lie dormant ffor years and all of a sudden, thee it is. something will trigger this feeling...this horrible, sinking, gut wrenching, heart-beating, sweaty problem. Now obviously there are degrees to which each person suffers. Mine has been with me a lond time andI really think that old habits die hard. We get into a denial thing, pretending it is "nothing", when in fact it is. It is when you feel out of control with it that you must seek help.
Has anyone noticed your reaction? Is this new?
Please don't think for one minute, that you have something horrible wrong.you know better than that..but this is a sneaky disorder, and our minds love to play games, deny, file it somewhere else. I have one of those minds, but do notgive it an inch anymore..I make a note and take it to the PhD. So my mind has realized that it cannot play with me. I had to do a lot of work on it in the stopsmoking center.
Red LOL
