How can I talk my way out of a panic attack?       02/22/08 02:17 PM Edit Reply Quote Nugget Reged: 02/10/03 Posts: 2167 I keep having these panic attacks about EVERYTHING and I need to learn how to talk myself out of them. Any good suggestions? I just feel out of control and I'm trying to keep it all to myself so nobody knows. I don't want my husband or anyone at work to know how out of control I feel at time. I worry about going away from home and having an attack. Just like right now, my husband e-mailed me and asked if I'd like to go out to dinner tonight. Well, he doesn't know it, but it's been an "iffy" stomach day for me today and just the thought of going out tonight has sent me into a panic. I don't want him to know because I don't want to be the cause for us not going out. You know what I mean? I'm always the cause. I get anxiety at even the slightest tummy gurgle. I've taken 2 Imodium today and I know I'll be fine, but it's just the "what if's" that get me going. How can I stop this cycle of panic/anxiety about leaving the comfort of my own home? I don't want to go back on anti-anxiety meds. I hated those. Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
