hun please don't be sorry, that is what we are here for!!!
i know what you mean, i feel that too. i found that it helped to get a bit of info about panic, just to understand them, if you know in the back of your mind that the tension is causing breating difficulties for example even if it doesn't help at the time the thought is there, but i have that too, and some times feel that it doesn't matter what i do.
the whole fear of dying thing is hoorid, i am so woth you there. it takes over your life and even when i'm not panicing i find i'm still thinking about it.
so many have told me that i will not just drop down, but the feeling is still there.
maybe hun if you would like to talk more about what is going on with you when you panic then we may be able to help some more. i haven' had a full panic for months, but the feeling of panic is nearly always there. maybe we could help you to overcome your fears.
i have found that putting my faith into a higher power some times helps, if you think that only God can control whether you live or die and so you pass the reponsibility over and tell yourself that you are not going to worry cos it's God's job to do that.
'feel the fear and do it anyway' by susan jeffers is a good read, it really helped me. but i have found that the best thing to do is to take advice from different places and find what suits you.
i hope that i have been of some help,
Ann, please feel free to email me if you need to chat with some one, i really do understand what you are feeling hun, you are not alone.
sending you big hugs,
becca.
