Any advice for me? I'm increasingly having panic attacks during therapy. At first, it only happened ever so often, but now it is happening more regularly and with increasing intensity. It definitely correlates with what is being discussed during my therapy sessions, that I know for sure. But I just need to know how to keep it from happening. It really freaks me out and pretty much ruins the rest of my evening because of what happens to me physically. And it embarrasses me -- I'm freaking out in front of my therapist, the last thing she wants to deal with. She is patient and helps me through it, that is when I don't run out of her office and gasp for air outside. I'm just sick of it happening and don't know what to do about it. Thanks for listening.
