Hi,
I am new to this and thought I should introduce myself. I am not finding much help from my doctor and when I went to see a counselor, he was not very helpful and asked what I was looking for. I usually am an extremely independent person. I spent the summer in spain with a foreign family and knew no one when I arrived. Now I am afraid of being home alone, left alone and going places. I can barely eat because it starts to make me panic. I've lost 7 pounds in a week and a half. Sometimes I think I can get past it and other times I feel like its impossible. Its frustrating and I feel awful because people took off of work to stay with me. On tuesday I will have to stay home alone and I get anxious thinking about it. Looking back I've had some panic attack symptoms before and either ignored them or made it through. But now it is debilitating. I need to feel like I can beat this and that I will be ok. Any advice that anyone can give would be appreciated. :)
Thanks,
Summer
