I'm Having a Panic Attack

This may sound silly, but I really need some support right now. I'm having a panic attack at home. My hands are shaking so badly I can barely type this. The trigger is something that may seem really silly (I keep saying it's silly, I know). I have OCD and part of that is germaphobia as well as intense fear of vomiting or people around me being ill. It's to the point where I begin feeling anxious if I even read about people being sick with a stomach bug online or overheard people in public talking about someone they know who is.

My husband has been having trouble with his neck today. He had a car accident a few years ago and it twisted his neck. He's been to physical therapy, chiropractors, etc. to no avail. He still has pain in his neck every day. Some days are worse than others. Now he has such a bad neck ache and it has turned into a migraine and he said he is afraid he might throw up. He said it's making him incredibly nauseous and he is as white as a ghost right now.

I'm so scared of him throwing up. I've been trying to rub his neck. I put Icy Hot on it and nothing is working. It keeps getting worse and worse. Please, I just need some hugs or something right now because I'm really struggling. I feel so worthless and selfish. My husband is in excrutiating pain and I'm having a panic attack because I'm afraid he will vomit.

hey *hugs*
its ok.
i get panic attacks every day nearly at the moment, for no apparent reason.
just try to breathe, in and out, in and out, slowly.

has your husband tried acupuncture?

just breathe, its ok, this will pass, i know it hurts.
*hugs*



Even as the stone of the fruit must break
that its heart may stand in the sun,
so must you know pain.

There are only two ways in which one can live their life. One is as though nothing is a miracle, the other is as though everything is.

I'd suggest taking him along to the chemist, you can get tablets for migraine and nausea. Not just to relieve things for you, but to help him.
