Hello LoriaAmnekia,

Welcome to Psych Central!

Anxiety can be very distressing.

Is it possible for you to find a way to have therapy again? I don't know what part of the world you are from but maybe a charity could help you pay for it?............. or insurance?

Are there any self-help groups in your area?

You can also buy relaxation tapes which help you to relax and help with the breathing. Hyperventilating can make you feel even worse.

Self-talk can help, reasuring yourself that nothing dreadful is going to happen.

Use distractions when you are out, ie. focus on something else to take your mind off the panic.

Hope you can find some help. Take care.
