Katie,
Hi! Two posts came through that were both similar, so i'm wondering if those were the two you are talking about. How are you doing?? Are you still just as anxious about being alone? From my experiences, my panic is always reinventing itself, just like Madonna. The last time, the big thing was being alone, and the feelings of derealization. Now, it's my obsessive thoughts, derealization, and pretty much being around people other than my boyfriend because i'm afraid of "losing it" and going nuts. I guess I feel somewhat uneasy being alone now. If it's just for a few hours i'm ok. But if my boyfriend is going to be gone for a few days, I begin to panic. Tomorrow I have to leave town with my sister in the morning, and i'm very nervous. I have a lot of derealization feelings in the car, especially when someone else is driving, and it makes me feel like i'm losing it. We will be spending the night at my grandmas for her birthday, (which is in the middle of no where). I just hope I can keep it all together. How long until your big move again Katie? I empathize with you about your fears. I am looking into joining a support group in my area. Never done it before, and I'm a little nervous. You said you have been having panic attacks since you were 8, may I ask if you know what triggered it? I began to have mine at age 12, after my next door neighbor died. WEll Katie, keep in touch. I will be out of town for until Sunday evening so unless I get on here tomorrow before I leave, I wont be able to check in with everyone.
