Yah!!!! I am glad that you are doing something for yourself. Keep going!! I am also glad that you had a good time at the amusement park!
Yes, you are probably continuing to restrict because you need some more control. Keep working on getting the feeling of control in other ways.

It just makes me flap even more and try to talk even more therefore be able to breathe even less!

So maybe you need to center yourself with these attacks??? Go somewhere quiet and close your eyes and try to calm yourself maybe???

So when everything crashed around me, i wasn't prepared, so now I'm beating myself up for not being prepared, but if I had been prepared, that would've meant being afraid of being afraid! So I think I did the right thing in not waiting for something bad to follow the good and not being prepared for the bad as much as I usually would be. I WAS partially prepared because I guess a part of me had an inkling that something could happen. BUT I didn't dwell on it. Yippeeee!
