Loneliness and on going panick attacks that just won’t end

I can’t talk to anyone about this, so I’ll just write here.

So, just few weeks ago I made a thread about accepting being single and how relationship isin’t going to be in my future.

And things just got worse since.
Little over a week ago I had a panick attack, I though it cane and went, but then it just kept happening again and again, like waves, it wouldn’t stop.
Scared me really bad, had to go to the hospital and they gave my some pills to help, they help a bit.
But I just have this constant, like fear, on all the time.

And all my loneliness and fear of being single rest of my life and just dying alone, no one caring, all this stuff that’s been in my head for so long, just exploded and now it’s just so much worse.
And I hate this.

I don’t know what else to say.
That’s my sad vent.

That's horrible. good that you went to the hospital. I assume they checked you over. Panic attacks are awful, I sympathise.
Vent away op.

hello Op, I'm familiar with the anxiety side of things. I always find it helps me to focus on something to look forwards to a bit. Can you book an evening out with friends, a weekend away somewhere fun with family or a friend? Get a few things in the diary to look forwards to. Something you really fancy doing. Refocus on good stuff. Ok it's not a perfect solution but it may help distract you a bit until you feel better. Look after yourself.

Hey OP, I remember your last thread. Here for you in Single Solidarity.

Knowing this makes me look at your outlook form a different perspective, you're just feeling down and it's affecting the way you feel about everything.

This may be the beginning of changes for you. Please seek help from your GP about the anxiety, maybe even depression. Your feelings on single-ness may be rooted in that.

See if you can get on some medication, work on YOU. Get to a place where you're feeling calm again, and then you can start re-evaluating your whole 'single situation'.

Sending you hugs.

Reading recommendation;
Self help for your nerves by Dr Claire Weekes. It is the bible on this subject. I can't say anything about whether you will be single or not of course but it might help to get a hold on the panic.

Good luck. X

Hi, I’ve been there. It’s horrible, sorry you’re going through it. Look up the Anxiety MD on Instagram to understand why you might have this trapped alarm energy in your body. It’s old grief, probably childhood grief.

You can work through the grief and the anxiety will calm down.
