The more you stay and don't escape (avoidance), the less the fear and panic will become over time. You did the right thing and you have a great and supportive Mom!
Thank you so much everyone! I love how supportive you are :)
And Matt, I will enjoy my summer (you did get the seasons right). Next step is to see if I can do my university studies on campus.
I probably wouldn't have been able to do it without my Mum, she's my main support person when I go out. And then when I saw my friends, it was like I was my old self again.
As for the panic attacks, the only thing I can suggest is to just let wash over you, there's nothing you can do to control it (unfortunately). No matter how much I just wanted to escape, and as much as I hated the fact Mum wouldn't let me, the best thing to do is stay there.
Congratulations Katie! I am so proud of you. Good for you for pushing through the panic attacks and doing it! What a huge accomplishment. Thanks for sharing your inspiring story. You have a great attitude and I know you will do well at University, keep up the great work!
Just wanted to share my exciting experience! My high school formal was last night and I managed to make it through the night, even though I had several panic attacks. It was the most amazing night and all my friends were so excited to see me because I've missed the past six months of school but I was able to graduate because I was an accelerated student and had done enough to achieve my Overall Postition and make it into university :D
I was so proud of myself, and wanted to show you all as proof that anything is possible :)

P.S. sorry if some of the things I've said are a bit confusing, I'm from Australia ;)
