Hi loulou
Sounds like you really need to start dealing with some of the stress in your life. Avoidance is a sure sign that you are not moving in the right direction away from the stress and towards healing.
Anxiety/panic/depression for some of us will be lifelong issues we have to learn how to live with and cope. You identified a major trigger, your divorce.
You might think about looking for a therapist in your area who does CBT. Then think about a support group for people dealing with divorce. They are usually listen in your local newspaper probably 1x a week so you may want to call the newspaper and see what day they list support groups.
Divorce is like death, the death of your marriage, and a huge adjustment for you and your children.
Please look into getting yourself onto something positive even if its self-help here on the net.
sending you prayers
Welcome to a great place. There is wonderful support here and people that make you feel "normal" considering our circumstances.
I can only imagine what a bad divorce must do to your heart and soul and I pray you gain peace through this somehow.
Focus on being healthy, mentally and physically. Put your energy into yourself getting healed and your children and not focus on the bad feelings that tend to be overwhelming.
Praying for you.
Lou,
Welcome to The Panic Center. We thank you for sharing your story with us today. This support group is full of supportive individuals who may be able to help you answer some questions regarding panic and anxiety. Please feel free to roam the site at your own pace. Unfortunately, for the safety and security of this site, we are unable to post any e-mail address'.
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 physicians 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 may better assess the situation for both of you.
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.
If you have any questions or concerns with our "TOOLS" you can contact our support department at support@paniccenter.net.
Take care and we hope to hear from you soon.
Josie

Hey, I'm new here. I was diagnosed with GAD, suffered panice attacks and mild depression. I just went through a terrible divorce, one I have no closure on. I have been getting terrible stomach aches and nausea, I get chills and feel like I am weak and going to faint. I have been avoiding crowded places, I have no family here and feel very alone. I don't want to scare my kids with this. I have tried therapy and meds (meds make my stomach even worse).
Maybe talking to someone that has been through the same will help. I know my kids need me and just feel like I am failing them right now....I feel like the world is going on without me...
please if you have any advice or support or are going through something similar, I would like some pen pals to talk with.
Hope to hear from you,
loulou
