Thank you so much for your thoughtful comment and for sharing your experience. I can completely relate and I'm sorry you've had to experience this as well. You are right about "feel the fear and do it anyway attitude". It's great advice. I was reading a book recently on dealing with panic attacks and it talked about just basically accepting it when it happens with a rather "so what, it is what it is" attitude. The reasoning is that the fear of the symptoms caused by the stress hormones is what causes the full on panic attack. I've tried it a few times and it has helped, but it is very hard to change thought patterns that I've had for decades. You are right about exercise as well. I'm glad to hear that you are managing this condition, it gives me hope.
Thank you so much for your support and advice. Following.

sometimes our mind is our own worst enemy, and there is irony in the fact that for us, it is also our biggest asset, i wish you much calm my friend :)
So true, thank you and I wish you much calm as well <3
i have learned also that the people that show no regard for others and propel themselves through life mainly at the expense of others never seem to suffer from stress, it is usually the people that have empathy and understanding for others that suffer the most (i call them the delicate flowers) and i know which type i would want in my garden .
Well said. I am definitely an Empath and a delicate flower.
A blessing and a curse I suppose.
Maybe 2 blessings?
