Moving on after panic | living a normal life
I really cant say that I am cured from,and that I have succeeded in overcoming panic attacks. If I let my anxiety levels rise then it is a possibility that I may have another panic attack. The difference is now that I don’t fear it. I know how to work through it.
dont panic
Overcoming panic attacks hasnt been a quick fix for me and I dont think too many people can say that it has been for them either. I worked on it,and as I have said in previous posts,I took one step at a time and now I feel I have succeeded.
Looking at life through positive eyes has been something that I have to work at but I am much better at it now than I was in the beginning. It’s like anything that has been a habit,it takes time to change. Life has opened up to me again and I am happy,which is probably a result of that positive outlook.
The hardest thing for me,still,is to not avoid certain places where I used to feel stressed,and I practice that and am doing ok. By exposing myself to the stressors I have,over time,been desensitized to them so I keep that up as I dont want to regress without realizing.
I have come a long way since my first panic attack so many years ago and I am grateful that I have overcome my fears to move forward and live a life that is full and without barriers.
Overcoming panic attacks will be different for each person and I realize that. I hope my story gives other fellow sufferers some hope that life can change for the better with proper treatment and a willingness to get better.
Anxiety doesnt rule my life anymore. I am now in control. Life is good.
Hi Pauline
I am so glad that you are getting on top of these attacks,it cant be good for your health to be under so much stress and worry that you may have another attack. I am interested in the mediation websites that you have posted as I think mediation is a wonderul way to combat stress.

Thank you for your comments Uless and I agree that life is not good when you are stressed and I have indeed found that meditation has been a great help to me to keep it under control although I found with panic attacks my greatest ally is breath control.
