Well Ive had panic attacks and bad anxiety for like 10 years now. But it has gotten so much better over the past couple of years, now its starting to come back and I dont know why. I get random pains all over my body and Ill freak out thinking Im dying. Ill also feel like Im in a dream like everything seems fake and that scares me too. At home most of the time Im fine its just when Im at work or outside I freak out. Im so worried......

If you have had anxiety attacks for 10 plus years you have got to realize that it will not kill you...If that were the case you would have been gone a long time ago. Don't go backwards...Take charge and stop focusing on your symptoms but rather the influences in your life right now that are causing you to go backwards...You have gone too far in a positive direction to let this become an issue with you again....I wish you all the best on your journey.

This is good advice, Cancun1! Paislee

Unless you learn from your anxiety, it will reappear at another time once again! You need to learn the skills on how to cope and manage your thoughts and symptoms! Sometimes anxiety will go away on its own accord without doing much of anything! You want to learn the tools needed so that if they do reappear once again, you will no longer fear it and you will know how to manage it if it does!
