Greetings from California! Hope all is well with everyone and ready for the holidays.
As some of you know, I had my first panic attack while dorm shopping at Wal-Mart in 2006. Since then, I have been in denial about my avoidance. I would come up with excuses. I don't have any problems going anywhere else. But it was just that one place where I always felt the discomfort. That was the reason for trying to avoid going to Wal-mart. I have come a long way towards my recovery from Anxiety.
Two weeks ago, I actually went into wal-mart and reassured myself that it's going to be ok. I felt it was time me to stop the avoidance and face my biggest obstacle. And yes, I had an Anxiety attack. But I did not let it get the best of me. I took a few deep breaths and continued shopping. I felt that was the biggest accomplishment for facing my anxiety. I felt like a warriot and finally felt the reach for victory. Thank God.
I am so proud of myself.
And I'm working on going back to college and get my degree in Finance.
Pray it will all work out.
A Road to Victory! I'm the lock and I'm the key.
