Overcoming Panic Disorder: A Journey to Happiness

I finally have my life back and my Panic Disorder under control after starting therapy, medication, and leaving an abusive relationship… sometimes I feel like I sanatorium my own happiness with worry that my panic attacks and agoraphobia will come back. It doesn’t take over my life like it used to, but I still think of escape plans when I’m out in public and self soothe. It’s like the panic attacks are at bay, but the anxiety just sits under the surface. It’s weird.

I'm proud of you for getting better. I think finding escape plans helps calming you down, at least that's what it does for me. I know that I'm good at the moment, but I also know that having a panic attack is possible. Just knowing how to get away when I'm in public makes me feel more comfortable being in a place with a lot of people.
