I'm almost 15 years old and I can't let my parents out of my sight! They can't even go to the store and leave me home without me having a panic attack. It's getting really bad..anybody have any tips? if something like this has happened to you share your story please..I;m starting to feel like a freak..

Don't ever feel like a freak!!!! I am 25 and I am scared out of my mind to move out cuz I dont want to leave my mom! what a big baby I am! LOL..try to do something fun when they leave, its ok to be alone. your growing up, use this time to get to know yourself, your safe, nothing is going to happen to you.

What scares you about them leaving the house?? What thoughts bring on your attack when you know you they are about to leave the house?

Princess,
My first suggestion to you is get this program.
If you don't have it order it ok. It has been the best money I have ever spent. It will help you. I have had anxiety most of my life, I am 39 now. But this program has been the answer for me. Talk to your parents about it and order it ok. If finances are hard, they will let you make payments. When you get it, make it a priority in your life. It will make a huge difference in your life. Its not an overnight fix, its hard work, and committment, but it works!!! Thank the Lord! I was in pitiful shape, I had anxiety and panic 24/7. Could not function, could not sleep, could not eat. But with God's Mercy and this program my life has changed and I am so very thankful. You will find that peace that contentment you are looking for. You deserve it. This program teaches you to deal with life in a better more positive, more productive way. It teaches you life coping skills. Do this for yourself and your family. You will not regret it. I wish you all the best.

Please do not feel like a freak-there are so many of us out in the world and we are not freaks. Just sensitive to life changes. I have had issues since I was around 13 and my mom never understood what I was going through. I am now 30 and have just relapsed back into my panic attacks and all that goes along with them. I just want you to know you are not alone. Tell your parents how you feel-when I had my attacks-not knowing what they were my mom would just talk me through it and then I would feel a little back to normal and keep struggling through life-it was when I was 20 that we finally put a name to it and sought help. I wish I would have understood earlier in life. You will get through this and I know it is scary-it is still scary for me but YOU have to fight against it and not let it control you-YOU have to control IT and you need to learn how-get some self help books and this program. I find comfort in reading God's word when I have no where else to turn. Keep your chin up YOU ARE NOT ALONE!!!!

I must reiterate what others have said: You are not a freak. I started having panic attacks when I was 17 (I'm 24 now). Back then I couldn't be alone without getting anxious. I made my older brother stay home every night for about a month because I felt safer sleeping in his room. I still feel uncomfortable being alone, especially at night, but I can do it. Things will get better with time.
