Who truly understands panic attacks and anxiety?
Only those who have experienced them first hand. It's just one of those things.
If you have never had a panic attack, you are just not going to understand how terrifying they are to someone experiencing them.
I guess it's a little like pregnancy. Men can sympathize and possibly imagine what it might be like, but they'll never truly understand.
If you struggle with panic attacks and anxiety, it's important and useful to be aware of this reality. Then, you're less likely to be resentful of those in your family who don't understand. You're also less likely to take it personally when they don't offer support. It's difficult to be supportive around something that you have no understanding of.
If you are struggling with panic attacks and anxiety, it's vital to get the support, validation and assistance you need. And you can receive these from . . .
