I have not posted here for a couple years. So much going on. I wish you all a happy holidays.

I see a therapist next Thursday. I am scared to death. I want to be honest, but they might put me in the pysch ward. No im not suicial I have tons of panick attacks.

When my husband is at work unless i walk i cry. He loves me and cares so much and he is open to therapy for me, and willing to come with me.

I have done somethings wrong and i deeply hurt my husband. Ran away at times. I ran away because i have so many flashbacks to before i met him.

My husband is very supportive and grateful im seeking help.
Hugs from:

I don't think they'll put you on a psych ward for panic attacks - no one has ever suggested this should be the case for me, and I've suffered really badly with them. Hopefully, through therapy (and maybe medication if you choose) you'll learn to better handle those panicky feelings so they're not so overwhelming. You'll get more out of therapy if you can be open and honest with your therapist, but I know it's hard, especially at first. Best of luck with your appointment, hopefully it will be the start of a beautiful therapeutic relationship

Happy holidays!

Hmmm. I hope it would be difficult to put you in a psych ward against you will and without your husband's permission. I also hope it is not a step they would take lightly.

You hear horror stories of course, and there was a woman who posted one here. But as I understand it, she was agressive, had a "history" and was living alone.

Good luck with your appointment.

I was having uncontrolled raging panic attacks when I first went to therapy. I was terrified to leave the house, yet terrified to stay home too. No psych ward for me.

It's hard but therapy does help. You can do this.
