You should really try to do some exercise, even if its only running up and down some stairs a couple of times. I usally feel that I don't know what causes my anxiety, but what is really hard is to stop all those thoughts that it triggers. But I run and the moore tired I become the moore I need to concentrate of getting my feet of the ground instead of getting deeper inside my own head.
Wow, that is amazing that you were able to push yourself so much. How do you think you managed to do it? If you were to do it again what would you do differently?

I developed panic disorder when I was 18 and have had some ebbs and flows in my symptoms since then. I went from having very few symptoms for over a year to having a pretty moderate level of anxiety after we got a tree through our house during Hurricane Ike. This week, though, I took a vacation that sent my panic through the roof. My husband and I took a 700 mile road trip, which included 3 bridges over 10 miles long and one that was nearly 20 miles long. I had horrendous anxiety the whole time. I got through it, though, so that's something. Since I've been back, my anxiety hasn't calmed down. I'm trying to take it easy and give myself a couple of days to feel back to normal.
