Dear Anne-Marie,
I believe, part of the problem at hand is we who have suffered, have a vast store of knowledge about the subject of 'panic disorder' - after all, we are out here dealing with it everyday! Taking it further, we know exactly what many of the 'new comers'(so to speak) are feeling. I think in the majority of the posts therein is a wonderful outpouring of genuine concern for each other.
If you have a moment, could you elaborate on how you wish us to react to someone terrified at night, at work and all of the other dramatic implications, symptoms & situations the members have presented.
I truly am not sure how to proceed.
Thank you,
I remain sincerely yours,
Maria
