Default Panic Attacks and Traveling?

I have had panic disorder since I was in the 7th grade. Since then the farthest I have been from home is probably about 2 hours. I want to travel and go on vacations. Will this ever be possible?

all of my sisters and my mother and I have experienced this to one degree or another. You will eventually learn ways to cope with this because your desire to travel will outweigh your anxiety.

If you are having trouble, talk with your doctor. I had panic attacks for a few months and started taking an anxiety medicine. I only took it for about three months, then I was able to stop. I don't have panic attacks any more now.

You are afraid of how you feel when you travel beyond your safe zone... What are you afraid that's going to happen to you?...You're afraid of your symptoms...The more power you give them, the more power they have over you..You won't live a full life if you don't accept the fact you have an anxiety disorder...You don't have to cope or put up with these symptoms, you accept them as they are..If you have a panic attack while traveling, the trick is letting the symptoms come, even invite them , basically you say to yourself "bring it on, let's see what you've got" It's never hurt you or killed you....I travelled 1000 miles in the midst of anxiety and it didn't kill me...Not only will this attitude toward anxiety give you more power, it will eventually stop your illness altogether...I have an ebook i will send you...it's 76 pages....Panic disorder is 100 percent curable....send me an email, not on here cuz i can't send the file through yahoo answers and I'll send it to you....fontaine32 at yahoo
