in the middle of a bad anxiety attack

[Kaseyjcf]

Hi, I am having a real bad anxiety or panic attack right now. It started about 1 hour ago when my daughter called and said she got called at work cause my 7 1/2 year old granddaughter got upset about something that happened at school and told someone she wanted to kill herself. So the school called and told my daughte she had to get her to a child pscychologist right away today or she could not send her to school tommorrow. My granddaughter has epilepsy and speech and behavior problems and she gets in trouble in school cause she is impulsive. She gets picked on alot by the other kiRAB. I did not want my daughter to go by herself with my granddaughter so I called my son and his wife to see if one of them would go with her. I called her and said one of them would go with her and she got really angry at me for calling them and now she does not want to talk to me. I went into a severe panic attack my heart is racing, I have a little blurred vision, I feel all shaky and sick to my stomach and I am so scared of things that probably won't happen like they might take my granddaughter away from my daughter or put her in the hospital or something I can't stop these negative thoughts. Please someone write back I need some positive feedback.

I am sorry to hear you are going through all of this right now. It's understandable that you are upset, but try to see past all of this. Realize that you will all get through this and it will be a moment in time that will have passed. I just posted yesterday because I am trying to figure out if what I am dealing with lately is anxiety, meRAB I started a couple of weeks ago for Crohns or what. The only way for me to remain sane is to take one moment at a time. So, try to do that. Your daughter will realize you are just trying to help. She is just stressed herself right now. Try to step back and take a few deep breathes and realize you can only do so much and at this moment you have to keep yourself sane in order to be of any help. I realized this over this past weekend with my own family crisis that I went through. I had to step back and remeraber I have to take care of myself as well. Do something that can help you unwind for a bit and then just pray for a good outcome.
