No Panic

I graduated today.... I had no "Panic Attacks"... I won't say it to loudly the day isn't over yet. However, I've had a day fuuullll of anxiety from about lunch time till now. Kinda feel like crawling out of my skin. I toughed it through today tho. Didn't take any xanax to curb the anxiety, just dealt with it. We'll see what tomorrow brings! I'm gonna push through this, I'm gonna push through this, I'm gonna.......

Good luck - you can do this! Anxiety crippled me in the very beginning of my recovery and still comes around every once in a while (like yesterday - LOL) but the longer I am sober, the easier it is to deal with it. Keep up the good work! Jomey

Great day today... Had some points where I was pretty nervous and anxietied up. Had a little upset stomach with it also, however every day is a gift of feeling a little better. It's hard to believe I feel this good compared to how bad I felt every week before. Thinking back to the first 2 weeks when it was living hell. Scared to leave my bed room much less my house.

I may actually be a father and a husband again someday.

Geesh, the panic attacks are what forced me to curb my drinking. It's funny, given my relatively impressive credentials, no one would imagine that I find the greatest pride if I can stand in line at the grocery store and not have a total meltdown... Congrats!!!!
