Hi... I just started the program 3 weeks ago and it has helped a lot. I feel guilty for having anxiety/panic disorder because I feel like I am letting my family down. I am married with three children, I once could do everything with them and now with physical symptoms daily I can't keep up...I know this will take time and will get easier but I just can't seem to get over the guilt of not being that strong person for my family anymore...anybody else feel the same??

i totally know what your going through. are you taking any meds?
i started taking zoloft and it has helped me to do the things i avoided for fear of panic attacks. good luck to you.

Thank you for your reply....I tried a couple meds but didn't have much success.. Right now I am just trying to use the program..good luck to you too

Jennifer,
What has helped me with the guilt is staying in the present moment and working on my self esteem. When you are having guilt, are reflecting on the past and reliving it? If you can bring yourself to the present moment that may help. Also focusing on the stuff you do good instead of the stuff "you think" you do poorly will help.
