• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

First of all, I usually help people out w/ SA since I've been there and overcome a lot of crap. However, during a meeting at work today, I had to read some stuff off a chart in front of everyone - and I had a panic attack. I was so embarrassed. My voice shook and I could not breathe. I got through it but I'm sure ppl were looking at me funny. I didn't bother looking around at anyone.

I feel very depressed now. I am going to do some self-hypnosis and trying to defeat this.

I just had to get this off my chest - sorry guys...

Please pray for me. :(

You have a special gift..
I am sure you gave a great presentation..
I wouldn't like to be in your position..
People remember how you finish not how you start..
I admire your courage ..you persevered and reached the goal..
I wish I had some of your qualities..
I am in a desperate situation at the moment and it is partly due to bad luck..
The company I was working for lost a contract so I am looking for work but it is hard :(

Hey Hope:

Thank you so much for your prayers to our Almighty God. I went into the same meeting today and was very relaxed when I spoke. No panic attacks or anything! It was God helping me through. But I really want to thank you again for praying for me. God bless you!
Many thanks for your kind words and Im so glad you had no panic attack in that meeting.

God bless you!!
