"I felt like I was standing in the middle of a freeway with cars attacking me from either side". That's how 27 year old Susan felt whenever she was about to suffer panic attack symptoms while trying to leave her home. Susan suffered from one of the most common of all disorder phobias, agoraphobia. Anxiety brought on by not having a connection with a safe person or place.
Just the thought of leaving her home would bring on a panic attack. "One moment you feel fine, the next moment you feel as though you are going to die," she says. "Physically my heart would start pounding, I would get a sickening feeling in my stomach and a sensation that I was about to faint."
For Susan these were the symptoms of a full blown phobia. She now can go out of the house because she overcame her phobia. Now she's out visiting people, trying to help those still stuck inside.
"You need to recognize the panic attack symptoms," says Susan "If a panic attack comes on, be aware of what it is. You've had them before, so you know you are not going to die although, you think you are at the time. Recognition is the key."
Panic attacks are unexpected occurrences of acute fear that develops without any obvious explanation or origin causing certain reactions. It frequently boils down to fear of losing control and the humiliation of what would happen
"Panic attack sufferers are usually hard on them-selves, but you shouldn't be, you can overcome your panic disorder" says Susan. "You need to understand your symptoms and causes and how to overcome them."
"You probably know that the only person that can cure your phobia is you, but you don't know where to start. You need some help in finding the answer to your panic disorder"
