BoomerSooner...I hear you and can relate 100% to what you wrote. Especially the part about being ok and then it hits with one pain or ache. It's so frustrating. I'm on session 3 as well and apparently this is the most difficult. We need to train ourselves not to talk to ourselves negatively. We're in this together...Originally posted by boomersooner:
Hello to all. I am also new to all of this. I am on my 3rd session. This is my first contact on the boards here because I didn't relate to much until Joe P. I am 100% the same as you. I have no problems with people, planes, malls, presentations or any thing like that, but let me have just one pain in my stomach and I'm dying of Cancer or something. Negative thoughts flood my every thought. Which leads to that spacey feeling everyone talks about. I can go a while and feel like I'm on top of the world and then it hit's me again. I thought I was alone in feeling that way. That is exactly my problem, all health related and I know I'm fine. Just can't shake the doom and gloom thoughts.

Joe,
Hi there new LL Cool J Snoopy!! Hey, I feel that I like you already w/your avitar being a total classic, my fav. idol, Snoopy, that is so cute & all.. You cannot believe what a smile crossed my face, just by seeing my good pal.. I think just by seeing Snoop, I instantly relaxed & breathed alot better, less stress, more hope & everything.. A man w/your kind of fine taste has real class & I can probably tell a great head on his shoulders as well.. I feel like how can you go wrong w/the one & only Snoop?
Joe, I do not really know much at all about you, but you said & shared seemed to make alot of sense & all of it really touched me as well.. I'm such a rookie to all of this that I'm not even sure that I'm doing this right & that this will reach you the way intended. Believe it or not, Joe, I do not even have any real pets, animals, etc., since I apparently am allergic to everything on this planet (i.e. dogs, cats, etc..) So, I guess that explains how much I miss being touched (tactile type of person that I am).. I have not been able to write in workbooks yet, but I have already listened to initial beginning jump-start video & relaxation CD w/other one hearing 1x on my drive for the way into work in car.. (it actually did help to calm nerves from traffic, etc. while providing + mind stimulation vs. stress.
I look forward to maybe hearing from you sometime soon.. I'd love to know more about you, if possible.. I hope that this is allowed. I really feel totally clueless about the ground rules & all out here as well as just generally.
Take care, stay cool & be super well.. I already can tell that you're a man of total discerning taste, life & niftiness!! How's it going w/you anyway.. I'm so really glad that you're here by the way, it made me feel cozy, comfy & it helped me feel I could relate just by seeing you & your LL Cool J symbol!
Thanks & best wishes for all that's good, Joe.. Is this really your name or just a nickname, avitar, etc.?
One, blessings & much peace/joy!! You really deserve it..

I everyone, this is my first time to get online and I haven't even received my cd's yet. I need encouragement so badly b/c I am suffering with panic attacks on the freeways and I am a realtor. So, I truly need to get through this problem and stop the stress and anxiety. Is this program working for any of you so far??

Welcome Lauri. You'll find that each and every one of is working towards being able to cope with out condition. To be honest, I'm on session 3, and my anxiety has increased due to the fact that I have to read/hear/see what anxiety is all about and this increases my anxiety. Catch 22. ugggg. But, slowly, by understanding anxiety and what my specific triggers are, I'm working on it. It's hard. Especially the negative self talk. What's been most revealing is that I'm the one causing this on myself. Just remember, we're all here to support one another. I find that posting and writing about what I'm feeling is therapeutic.
Hey friends!
I'm new and looking forward to this battle against this damn disorder. I'm tired and I really do just Miss Me. I had my first panic attack one year ago almost to the day. Gratefully, my boyfriend at the time was there with me and he too had suffered from anxiety and panic attacks years prior. He introduced me to Lucinda(lucky me) because he had went through the program himself. I think he has a crush on her too
. He knew instantly what was happening. I begged him to take me to the emergency room but he refused... he used the techniques that he learned through Lucinda's program with me and gradually my dizziness, racing thoughts and shortage of breath went away. It always works!! Little did I know that night would change the quality of my life forever. I am in my early 20's living a restless life. Last year I loved life. I loved school and now I am in my last year of college struggling to finish because my anxiety sucks the life out of me. I have a confession. I started the program over the summer and after week three I was cured! I was cured because the program is so amazing and I had a boyfriend who knew exactly what I was going through. He was my safe person. I don't want to depend on him anymore. I need do this on my own. Lately the panic attacks are creeping back into my life so I restarted the program this week and I am committed to getting my life back. I am praying for all of us!! We can do it!
