Anxiety re-lapse because of Coronavirus

Hi all, Has anyone elses panic disorder/anxiety took a turn for the worse since Coronavirus? I was in such a good place before and now I feel I am worse than ever and my panic attacks are happening daily! The fact the panic attack makes you breathless is also adding to my fear as Covid-19 apparently causes breathing issues so I worry I have it. It does not help that I am seeing young people reportedly dying from it or having heart attacks as a consequence of having the virus! I keep thinking I will keel over any moment! It is awful!!!!!

I am also having the same issues. I have had a cough for 3 weeks now that's chesty and wet likely from the amount of pollen so sinus/Allergies but of course anxiety takes over I also have a hard time cause my mom is 62 a nurse in a doctor office has COPD and a lung cancer survivor that what my trigger is worrying about her. my city is ranked #2 in my state for cases I had bad Anxiety before this but this has been so hard I do keep 2 journals one for when i'm super anxious and one at the end of the night. I'm so ready for this to be over Do you have a support system?

I was feeling same everyday where I'm taking xanax. I would feel mucus in my throat and give myself panic attack. one of my employees was tested positive and I felt like I was dying. It sounds extreme but true. i started to worry about my sons, my family my team. I was a mess. I started praying and building back my relationship with our Lord and I'm not as anxious. We have to have faith and pray for this to stop and our anxiety will stop as well. Feel better ❤😇🙏

Same. As if it wasn't bad enough that peri worsened my PTSD. Now I've been on the 7th day of PTSD panic attacks and usually the flare ups don't last more than 5 days at the worst. I took my dog out for a walk this morning to get fresh air and then came in and had a panic attack. Think anything that raises my heart rate makes it worse. Even 20 minute walk in sun. :( I want this corona stuff to be over... Hang in there MILAO, I'm with you. 🤗
