    There is hope

    This week I have left the house all but one day!!! While I was out the anxiety didn't seem too bad. My palms always sweat, but that is even getting less. Several times I went into stores and other times I just drove my car...but I was out and I felt free!!!

    Next week I will try to take bigger steps and maybe even go into a busy store. If the anxiety is too much I will just walk in and take a quick exit...but it's more than I have done for the last month.

    Just wanted to share my small steps.

    its good to see that this can be overcome, i have been dealing with it for about a year and a half now, most days i stay in my room and watch movies, usually the same ones. or read, im on methadone so i have to leave the appartment once a day anyway but im used to the pharmacy and the staff, but i cant even get a haircut without having an anxiety attack, ive been dealing with other health issues too, my thyroid and i just got diagnosed with long qt syndrome of the heart. ive been on clonazepam and celexa for a while but i still find myself barring the outside world and i'm fearfull of most things, i went to the urgent care clinic yesterday because i was having a bad panic attack and they gave me some reading material and stuff to go over, that brought me here. so i thought i'd take a chance and post my story/feelings. there is alot more but this is just to start. i feel for anyone in my position, this is a horrible condition. anyway thanks

    Hi. I signed up back in February but experienced password/email problems. Anyhow I just got around to returning and am delighted I did.
