Does Anybody Else Suffer From Panic Attacks, Anxiety, Some Sort Of Social Phobia?
I suffer from really bad anxiety, and have had a few panic attacks. I can’t go into my city centre on my own, don’t really like to go anywhere on my own. I struggle with busy places, I end up feeling on edge, and like I stand out (although I don’t).
I’m a manager in a bookies, so have to deal with abusive and angry men sometimes. Although I stand my ground, any sort of confrontation leaves my whole body trembling.
I hate it. I hate being scared of everything.
I used to be really bad, I wouldn’t get on the bus at certain times. I used to go out of my way to get another bus home, because I didn’t want to get on my usual bus. Sometimes, I wouldn’t even use the usual bus stop.
I don’t understand it. I feel silly, but I can’t help it.
I have to feel safe, but I don’t.
Anybody know what I mean?
