Denn,
Welcome,
No need to apologize! Please continue to share your thoughts with us. There are many people within this support group that share the same questions and concerns as you. We are all a group of individuals who support each other.
If you look to the left of the screen under "TOOLS" you will find many supportive tests. These tests are not diagnostic tools and are not a replacement or substitute for a physician's advice. The purpose of these tests is to prepare you with information that you can present to your physician. When you're finished the test, you can either print your Final Report or email it directly to your doctor. This will help better assess your situation.
We also have developed a Panic Program. This program is 12-weeks and involves the tools mentioned above. Each session is based on the previous session, so we strongly advise that you work slowly through the program and not jump ahead.
These tests may or may not be for you but they are "free". If you have any question or concerns with our €œTOOLS€, you can contact us at support@paniccenter.net. We are the Support Specialist for The Panic Center and are open to any questions or concerns you may have.
Looking forward to hearing from you soon!

Pete,
Sorry it has taken so long to respond to your question. There are basically two things you can try.
The first is to set aside a 1/2 hour a day as "worry time." Your job is to save all of your worrying for "worry time". At this time, then you worry really hard about something. If you worry at other times of the day, you should try to "put-off" the worry to your "worry time". If it is important, you will remember what you were supposed to worry about.
The second technique is called "Cognitive Exposure." Basically what you need to do is write out a detailed story of your worst fear. You need to describe it in extreme detail of whatever your worst fear is.
The story should take 5 -10 minutes to read. The story should also contain a beginning, middle and end, but should not contain a happy ending. You should try to really get into it and imagine the most horrible outcome in as much detail as possible. Ideally you should tape the story and listen to it over and over again for an hour every day while keeping track of your anxiety across the exposure session (after all, this is exposure work). You should listen to the story until it doesn't make you anxious any more (just like other kinds of exposure work).
If you have more than one main fear, you should tackle your fears one at a time.
Hope this helps,
Josie

Stormy,
Good for you! Doing research is a great way to have all the knowledge. Please check with your doctor about which medications you should be taking. You are a step ahead and can advise him of your findings. Don't be shy and advise him of your concerns. From here you can work together and decide what's best for you.
Hope this helps,
Josie
