I tried so hard to do my best, but my family visited for my birthday and It was....overwhelming. What I hate about being nuts? Is how it affects my family. Screw my neighbors. He!l with my employer. I can't go to walmart without flaking out and embarrssing my family? THE WORST. Day. Ever.

I'm sorry, nummy. Are you in treatment of any kind?

Yes, and that's what hurts me so much...I'm taking my meds, going to intensive outpatient treatment, have had a breakthrough in PTSD, and still got insanely paranoid just....shopping at Walmart with my family. I thought I'd pass out, I was so scared.
 Edit: I got thru it, but a victory dance? Anything but. Will I ever be " me" Again ??? |

nummy, please don't be too hard on yourself. Even people without a history of anxiety disorders can freak out during family visits. You are making progress--and you will be okay!
