outlaw, i know how you feel. i think most of the people in this forum do. i sent you a message on the other topic. have you tried any CBT programs just wondering. i did one and it seemed to help - i got one that had audio tapes and a work book.

Dear Outlaw, Your post broke my heart, I lit my Blessed Mother candle for you and I am praying. You WILL recapture life, your lady loves you and is there for you, from what you wrote she sounds understanding and loving. I fully understand about the health anxiety and symptoms. I started something new lately, it may sound strange, I have started getting REALLY mad at the anxiety and panic, I yell curse and scream at it and I tell it it will NOT control me, anger helps believe it or not, when I am fiesty and pis-ed off I feel better! You are young and healthy and I truly in my heart believe you will beat this with time, prayer, and medication. Have a good cry, it releases so much tension. I am praying for you to feel better, remember you ARE going to get better, its took me a long time too accept that it takes time, I am so impatient I wanted to feel better NOW, baby steps and time it will happen. God bless you outlaw, Debbie.
