When I was 8 years old I developed a phobia of vomiting. This eventually lead to anxiety and panic attacks. My panic attacks were pretty severe when I was about 11, went away until I was about 17, then those went away until now at age 35. My panic attacks have come back full force and have been going on for about 4 months. I'm wondering if this is just another period of my life where they are severe and will eventually go back away for some time. Of course having anxiety I dread the worse and feel like this is how my life will be from now on. I have a hard time leaving the house. There are some reasons I believe that have triggered my attacks to come back but just wondering how long they will stick around this time. Does anyone else have a pattern of more severe panic attacks and then manageable anxiety?
Hiya , we can get anxiety and anxiety attacks under cotrol. Before you reach for medications try natural ways of dealing with it. Therapies, CBT, mindfulness, meditations, change your lifestyle. Seek help. Its not easy. But we can do this we wont let our mind bully our body. We all support each others here and together we will get thru this. Things will improve , dont give up and think positive 😚😚😚😚
I have Agoraphobia too.🙌Dont worry about things. We can't be worrying all the time we lose sight of the present. I know words are easier said than done but don't fear. Fear rob's you off the present we only have now. We don't know if tomorrow will come. We should try to always reinforce these positive thoughts on our mind. Our mind lies to us we can do this. We can get out nothing will happen and if it does we can always go back to our house and try another day. A step at a time. I understand the fear of vomiting I would hate that too. My ribs hurts when that happens I only have vomited once though. Try to get help. Therapy. 👍Good Luck
