I'm in the same situation, it took me a long time to identify that it even was a negative behavior! I guess it would have been so much easier to "correct" if we had understood it as children. But we shall overcome :)
My name is Lindsay and I have been suffering from panic disorder since I was a young child. It has taken me over ten years to identify that I have this disorder and that my anxiety issues can be helped. I always assumed that I was just a generally cowardly person and was afraid of everything. But now I realize that I was just afraid of having another panic attack. Since I let my panic disorder control my life for so long I have become less and less willing to try new things because I'm afraid of my panic. However, I am thankful to places like the panic center for helping me realize that I can enjoy trying new things and enjoy life again without being controlled by panic.
