So I have a appointment with a new counsler Monday which I'm very happy about but I haven't went anywhere in a very long time I'm so scared that I will have a panic attack and run out of there once I go into somewhere its like I freeze up my stomach starts churning and it feels like I can't breath and in my mind the only thing that will make it better is to leave anyone have any advice or something that will help me?

Yep, panic attacks are easy.
You know you're going to have one, so what you do is prepare yourself to have it, then once it happens simply talk yourself through it. Positive reinforcement, you've had them before you know you survive every time, so just keep telling yourself that and ride the wave of fear like a roller coaster, if you face it strongly and talk yourself through it won't last as long and it won't be intense.
Fear of fear is the greatest enemy of the anxiety sufferer.

It may be hard but you have to do it. The Anticipatory Anxiety is worse then the actual trip to the office I bet. Alankay
