I started having panic attacks in my ealry 30s. One time I was in a store that got crowded, I abandoned my basket and asked my nine year old to get me out of the store. And it go to were I could only drive 30 miles an hour especially at night. I connected with a wonderful therapist that help me overcome all of it and for years I had no anxiety. The a few years ago it came back but not as bad. It only bothers me in crowds or when I start worrying about money. I still remember all I learned before and put it to use, but also take meds for it now because it is more in the form of racing thought.
