8 years of panic and anxiety and yes it has helped to know I won't 'die' from it but it's terribly frustrating. I just feel like screaming and throwing a hissy fit at times. I keep asking 'why me' and 'why can't I be normal'.

Hi Grace,
Yes i get fustrated with living with the anxiety and panic all the time, every hour of every day, but when you start to get to the point where you are now, that you are so angry at it or tired of it you start to ignore it, then you are very close to getting better.
Thats the way to deal with this best, just let it come. We create the anxiety and panic by fearing our own thoughts and feelings.We have to retrain ourselves to know that there is nothing to fear, thats a step towards recovery.
frustrated with your symptoms you just almost get angry and ignore them? or at least try.
I think the ONLY benefit of having this panic syndrome for 2 years now is that I recognize the pains and attacks and can tell myself "Oh, I know this pain...I did not die last time so I will be okay now"....or when I take a medication that I have taken in the past and get a funny side effect, I will find myself getting mad and think "Oh yeah, I remember this now...had it before and survived it"
It is an awful thing to live with but I also find myself so burned out on all of it, ya know???
