how to deal with attack in public place

Thank-you Diva :) . I suprised myself too but i have been reading how you all are really pushing yourself so went for it . I would never have done that a couple of months ago . I even had a family evening and watched the new movie involving some very cute chipmunks awwwwwwwww .

How Can I Help?

Hi ya Fatwillie and welcome . First of all you are not sad , so please dont feel that way . Espically with us . Think we have all thought that at one time or another but thats down to being depressed about our feelings . I started the programme a few few ago myself and was very anxious but the thought of easing and conquering my fears out weighed anything . I will say Willie that its slowly beggining to help , espically the lovely people on here and advice of the mods . Take care :)

Advice

Ok will start , deep breaths lol . Yesterday i got a phone call from ther hospital just checking on me for my procedure on May 7th . ( i cant spell it but its when they shove a camera down your throat) . Now to say im nervous is the understatement of the year ! But i really need to have this done . Im tired of being in pain and uncomfortable . When she found out i suffered from panic attacks she asked the consultant if i could have a general anesthetic . He said no because of my weight and i smoke . ( was gutted because i was going to have a general in december when i was 3 stone heavier , was for something else) . Now i have to have a throat spray which should stop 'the gagging' . OOO going funny even just writing this ! I even have to stop taking my omeprazole 10 DAYS before i go in . Whoahhhh dreading that as well . Sorry to waffle but got it off my chest now . Does anyone have any advice for me apart from the normal deep breathing which im guessing will be impossible with something in my mouth ? :(
