Hi Aimee, I too have anxiety/panic attacks and OCD😊 I have had this my entire life along with germaphobiia. I saw a Stress management dr for about 10 years after my children were born and my husband had to be deployed out for 911. It was a long road but I believe it has made me stronger and I have come to embrace my oddities. I Love to clean and Music so I just lose myself in that. I do take medications which help and knowing that I come to terms with it makes a big difference. I am also struggling with Myotonia Congenita which is a rare muscle disease. My panic attacks make me feel like I cannot breath and my heart twinges. It’s horrible but you are not alone. I have little quotes or sayings I say to myself to get me back to (my normal) self. Don’t be so hard on yourself and try to stay positive. Negativity only feeds the anxiety and panic attacks. Hope this helps a little😊😊
