I started having panic attacks about 2 months ago. Then all of a sudden depersonalization sets in. It is absolutely horrible. Trying to stay positive but its so hard when you feel so terrible. Its hard to try to explain it to people also. I've been through this before and prayed it would never come back but here I am again dealing with these awful feelings. Prayers and strength to all who are suffering

I used to be so independent and worked three jobs. Now I can't even work. I also have headaches all the time

  Yes I get spacey. I have a hard time concentrating too. Esp. When someone is talking to me. Ya painting has been keeping me sane I think. I never painted before now I have pics everywhere lol. I watch the tutorials on you tub . Its a great distraction but nothing gets rid if it completely. at least we can share and know we are not alone. For a long time I thought I was

Keep the faith and keep talking about it to someone you like and trust. Keep doing all the normal stuff like no caffeine, plenty of exercise, a lot of yoga and meditation, plenty of fresh fruit and veg. All the best x
