Had the worse panic attack an hour ago and still feeling the decay
I had those through out my life time but this is the First time i actually seek help, i dont think i can keep living like this.
@keioe Hi keioe. I can relate. Have you ever talked to a therapist/counselor/psychologist? What about medication? Our minds work in mysterious ways. Just as easy as we have all these negative crazy sad thoughts we can just as easy have the positive happy thoughts. There are soooo many things out there now that will help us with depression, anxiety, etc. I am reading two books right now Feeling Good and The 10 best ever anxiety management Techniques. They aren’t just self help books but they bring some things to light on how the mind works. It has helped me a lot.

We do reach that point where it's so bad we just can't take it any more. Start looking for resources: a therapist, your PCP, a psychiatrist, a helpline you can call. Don't give up. Be persistent. I tried for almost 3 months before finding help. Then I had to wait weeks for appointments. But I've started the journey. I'm still suffering, but trying to have hope. One way I found help was to go to an ER. I also called the suicide prevention line, not because I was that desperate, but because I wanted to talk to someone and I wanted resources. That's what happened. The phone line routes you to where you live, so you get local resources. I got free help at a local center. Good luck. Fight for yourself.
Hi there @keioe
I can understand that it feels really scary as you experience Panic attack, I'm sorry that you have to feel it that way :( Would you like to tell me more about it? We can talk about it while also discussing some relaxation technique that I've learned and I believe it can help you through your panic attacks :)
I completely understand what you mean because I’m going through it myself and have for a long time. We CAN and WILL get better.

Hi Keioe , I understand that panic attacks can be really difficult to deal with and you are so strong for going through it and I am very much proud of you. Have you reach out to any professionals such as therapist , counsellors who would be able to help you ? Or any hotlines that would be able to help you? Seeking for help is the first step for improvement :)
You are so strong and I am proud of you :)
You can do this Keioe , I believe in you!
