Thanks Diva, I am [i]very[/i] glad to know that I'm not alone! I don't know much about Cobra, but someone mentioned something to me that because I have such a small amount of money that I might be able to get state assistance. I hope to look into that but I know I'll have to leave, and I suppose I'm avoiding that -- even though I know it's unhealthy. When I go even a few feet from my apartment I get those [u]frustrating[/u] panic attacks! It just feels so real, like I'm going to die, even though I know I won't. You know what I mean. :)
Anyway, I'm 22. I hate to think that I will spend the rest of my life afraid to have a panic attack. I'm sure you know what I mean! It's terrible that we go through this. I hate to repeat myself, but I'm just so happy to know that I'm not alone. =D
Diva, what are the varying factors? I've looked through some posts; have you posted it? What helps you to leave the house? I'm so curious to know what another person goes through regarding this. I knew I wasn't actually alone, but a part of me wondered ... "Am I?" There is comfort in truly knowing that one is not alone.
