New Here!

Hi Just starting out, looks like a great program!!! I have always been aware that I have panic attacks and also know that's what they are when I have them, but I cannot get rid of the anticipatory anxiety and I am hoping that this program can help me with this and my triggers.

Looking for Moms with panic and anxiety????

Hi there, I have 2 kids age 3 and 6 and on again off again panic attacks, I have had them all my life but they seem to have gotten worse as my kids have gotten older as I often worry about them, and can't seem to stop. I come from a very overprotective set of parents and wonder if this has something to do with a lot of my problems. This week was a little tough, my sister is going through a divorce and very distressed and I take on that stress too worrying about her. And then a good friend of mine, her ex husband passed away. So I just felt really anxious this morning and found this website somehow and joined up. Does anyone else find that overprotective parenting from when they were young contributes to their anxiety and panic? Am I right to assume this?

New Here!

Thanks to everyone for their welcoming words, it's great being able to go on here and read others experiences and not feel so alone!!! I was having a rough day yesterday and it helped to log everything I was feeling on the tracking sheet!

Tip of the day

I like that tip because I find if I am busy all day I feel fine, it's really when I sit around and brood about my feelings that I get anxious!

Looking for Moms with panic and anxiety????

Hi Birdie, thanks for writing, I am like you, but my kids are young 3 and 6 I have them go to camp and such because I want them to be independent and not fear the world (like I was taught, not to blame my parents as they were just looking out for me, but it scared me!) It is harder for me letting them be independent but I know it will help them so much as they get older. I try not to worry unneccessarily although I was brought up doing that and it's a hard habit to break...my husband tries to help me because he was not brought up worrying and he doesn't let things phase him as much, I don't always listen because my worries get the best of me!!!! Did you find as your kids got older that you worried less because you taught them to be independent?

Fear of Listeriosis....

I have been seeing all of this Listeriosis stuff too on the news, and unfortunately once something like this happens the media takes it and runs with it....it seems to be all they are talking about and that is scary for people to constantly hear on every broadcast! I admit when I first heard it, I kept thinking about everything our family has consumed in the past few months....we don't buy our meat from the grocery store, usually only at a drug free butcher, but because it was in restaurants and stuff you start to think about what you have ate. But I really believe it doesn't help that it's on every news report constantly it's started quite a panic and contributes to the society of fear that we already live in. I feel bad for the people who unknowingly ate it at their nursing homes and hospitals with no hope of survival, just awful. Sometimes I think if I didn't ever watch the news I would be much less anxious, but I need to know what's going on in the world, catch 22! I hope that you are feeling a bit better now Diva.

Fear of Listeriosis....

It's funny you should say that I don't watch it at all at 11pm now, as that used to disturb my sleep....so really I have limited it a lot as that was the most I watched, that along with crime shows and such, now I just watch comedies!!!

walking, motivating songs

These songs are great that are on this message board...it's funny because I have or love most of these, especially the over the rainbow one, it's beautiful, it's on my ipod! Music is so helpful, it really can affect your mood. My kids listen to music every night when they go to bed....

What is fear?

Hi Genejockey

Good for you getting right back to driving again. That is definitely a way to take control of your fear and seize the opportunity. I think it's helpful for everyone to hear about that experience too, as we all would know how you felt trying to get over that hurdle, and you did it! Congrats!

i feel so alone

Alexandra it`s not silly at all to want to stay young (I think everyone secretly wants to be young in some way). There is nothing wrong with keeping some attributes that make you young. Yes you have to pay bills now and work, but there are lots of things that you can do to keep you young. Maybe you should make a list of all the things you want to do that will keep you feeling younger, then it will put it into perspective for you, seeing on paper what it is that you like about being young will help you to see what you can do to stay young. I would be interested to see what kind of things you come up with...
