I am a single mom of 3 and I have been suffereing from anxiety since 2014. It has gotten even worse now that my kids are getting older and they want to go places but I have attacks in the store or places where there are a lot of people. I was in the grocery store and almost passed out and was about to leave my kids in the store. I tried wearing sunglasses but that doesnt work anymore. My family has turned their back on me when I needed them the most. I am tired of suffering from this, and I wish it would go away...Im begging for someone, in Jesus name, God have mercy to please help me before I die because I want to be here with my kids and family.
You are not alone in this. I have severe anxiety/panic attacks as well and I have a difficult time going places. I completely understand feeling like you're going to pass out. It's no fun at all. I applaud you, because you are a mother and you are on your own! Please see how incredible you are. You are not going to die. I know it's miserable and you feel hopeless but just know there are others out there who experience this as well. Have you discussed any of this with a professional? I definitely suggest speaking with a doctor about your symptoms. Maybe try medication or see a psychologist weekly. Hoping you get better soon. Take care of yourself and although you're going through a difficult time, please don't be too hard on yourself, your children will love and cherish you even if you need to stay at home. x

You have not mentioned if you are seeing your GP, and if He has given you any advice. If you are suffering stress when out doing the shopping your GP has various treatments, including talking therapy and ways to reduce your Anxiety
One problem you seem to have are your three children, if they are getting older can be a real problem and cannot relate to their Mothers concerns. Having children must be wonderful, we were unable to have any sad to say, although they must drag you dwn especially if their Dad is not around. If your Parent have turned their back that is one pathway denied to you.
Go and see your GP and explain how you feel, The Practice may be able to help you have some quiet time if your kids are not at school.
See if you can get some help, Good Luck
