It's hard to impress upon people who are afflicted with this terrible disorder that there is a common sense solution to reduce or end the symptoms of this fear based disorder, however what it takes is conviction and the will to attempt their recovery! Through the years of my anxiety disorder and thousands of panic attacks, acute avoidance, and finally agoraphobia which left me housebound I never had the benefit of an explanation of what I was suffering from or why? With so many visits to emergency rooms I lost count, but the only answer was always, that I just had suffered a panic attack! Not until I recovered over thirty-five years ago and seeing over a dozen doctors did I discover that I was both victim and perpetrator of my own disorder! Without anticipitory anxiety and dwelling on the fear of my next attack there would have been no disorder!
