Question:
Hello everyone – I just wanted to take a minute to say how much the ASAP group has meant to me. You helped a lot 4 years ago when I was terrified, and had no idea what panic disorder even was; and again in the past few months. It has been tremendous. I feel pretty good right now, at the moment, and wanted to thank everyone who took time and effort to listen to me, and post, and be supportive in general. I don’t know where I’d be without all of you. -Z-

Dear "Z", I’ve been here since 1995 or 1996 (I was so….so…..so…..messed up with newly getting sober and two husbands’ suicides, then add panic attacks…. that I couldn’t seem to get over my problems (I understand now after therapy that you don’t really "get over it" but life does go on for the living. No, the men didn’t die at the same time (2 yrs apart……one I was still married to but he had been missing for 3 years….just a thing he did when he got on drugs…..he would go away so the family didn’t see him in that state….he told me that alot when I asked about his past but he was 4 yrs sober when we married so I figured he was fixed….I know now that doesn’t happen., but around the same and got down to around 103 even tho I am not anorexic. I just couldn’t eat. I am proud to announce that after getting a "good" doc and all the ASAP-therapy (plus my own therapist) I am up to 130 which is still a size 8 for me. I was a size 14 which is normal for my height and normal weight. This recovery has been slow but I was so weak back around ‘95 I could not even make it back to the back of the grocery store (WHY DO THEY KEEP THE MILK WAAAAAY BACK THERE LOL?????). My heartfelt thanks go out to ASAP too, I sort of realized thru your post that I take it for granted, but so many here (YOU know who you ARE!!) have helped me, prompted me to the doc, etc. Of course, many have moved on from ASAP and I congratulate them……but for all I’ve received, I will always give back cos I know there is someone who feels like I did back then. I was so far gone and now, even tho I do have my problems, I got my physical health back and 70% of my mental. I have found that you never know the impact you have on people by asking or responding…you guys have pieced me back together more times than I can count. I love you all!!!
