Hi, my name is Jenni and this is my first post. I am hoping that someone has experienced this and can help me out a little. I have been suffering from panic attacks and agoraphobia for a few years now. At my worst point, I cancelled a wedding and spent 3 months in the middle of nowhere trying to regain my sanity. Wich I eventually did, I have done some amazing things, moved to a place I had never even been to where I didn't know a single person, however I still can not bring myself to go to Wal Mart!! I have learned to except that such is my life and I just take one thing at a time.My issue right now is, my father and entire side of that family is 4hours away at the beach and has been all week I took the week off of work to go out there and was all packed and ready to go...I made it 50 miles, cried for 40 of them, turned around and cried all 50 miles back home and for the rest of the night and still today with the crying!!! I know how to handle a panic attack, but this is totally new to me there is no actual panic attack involved, a sense of anxiety sure but I can't bring myself to get in the car and drive out there and everytime I think about it I start crying so badly. I should add that my father is my favorite person in the world and there is no one that I feel more comftorable with, therefore this has nothing to do with seeing him. I've been having alot of trouble for a couple of weeks now, extra work stress, etc and I feel like I can't handle the pressure of seeing everyone maybe??? Maybe it's knowing I have to cross 3 rather large bridges to get there?? I don't know but I"ve tried everything I know to do and none of it is working.This crying thing has been going on for a few days now and I'm running out of time to make it to the beach!!! I should also add that I'm not typically a "cryer" can anyone help me stop crying?

... It sounds like you may be mildly depressed. I have days like this, sometimes a week at a time. Every thought can bring tears to my eyes for no reason. It sounds like you may feel a little "disapointed" with your atempt to drive to the beach. Don't be!! Think about lying on the beach with your dad. Walking in the water, eating watermelon. Think about how much fun it will be when you get there. I know how you feel. I have driven to places and sat in the parking lot just to turn around and go home. You can make it there! You can do it! And when you do it will feel so good knowing that you made it through!! Have faith in your self. |

... Thanks so much to Kellybeth for the reply. Unfortunitley I tried all of that and I didn't end up making it the beach. In fact I spent my entire vacation in the house crying. Today I went to a new psycologist who cost me a fortune and I suppose didn't make me feel any better, I was crying when I walked in, crying when I walked out a few hours late when I tried to go to work I got so worked up my roommate had to come and get me to take me home! Seems I'm getting worse by the day and I don't know that there's anything I can do about it. I've never felt this helpless before. I haven't been so scared by my panic that I thought about going to the hospital in years but if I wasn't afraid of the place I would have gone today. I'm going to try to nap now, if I can stop crying. It is great to hear everyone else's stories and to know that I'm not the only person that goes someplace, sits in or drives around the parking lot and then leaves. I know how victorious it can be to accomplish your goal but for some reason the little triumphs aren't helping me at all these days! |
