Thank you lavendersteph, as well as everyone who replied


When I go into public i constantly think EVERYONE is looking at me, talking about me, and critizising me, so my heart starts to raise and my face turns hot, I get red blotches all over my neck, and I have an anxiety attack, most of the time I don't have a full panic attack, but if someone tries to talk to me(even a hello, how are you) then I start to have a a full panic attack (heart raising faster, CAN'T BREATH, lightheaded, feel like i am going to faint hyperventilating, crying, chest hurts, shaking) If you have ever had a panic attack i am sure you know what I am describing. I usually just avoid the situation and leave, because if i stay there the symptoms will just get worse, because I am embarrassed of what is happening and worried because people don't understand. Then when I am in my car or somewhere, where I think no one can see me I try to relax and calm down it takes me about 10-15 minutes, sometimes longer. hopefully the Klonipon with help with the panic attacks to, I haven't had an anxiety attack in about 3 days, and I haven't had a panic attack in 8 days!!!! yayyyyyy
