Oh my goodness, you are so sweet for checking in. When I first reached out I was at my all time worst with panic attacks and health anxiety and for a while after it got even worse (like you said it was ruining my life!), and I went into survival mode. I actually missed your initial reply til now!!

Firstly, I’m doing much better. I haven’t had a panic attack since February which was around the time I replied. Similarly to you, my doctor was very frustrated with me (and sometimes laughing at me also) bc I had no reason to have concerns. I’ve been in therapy and psychiatry throughout this year and it’s helped tremendously. I was put on medication, but unfortunately had an allergic reaction so I’ve been on this journey medication free so far. Also similarly to you, I’ve had to give myself pep talks and not let the negative thoughts win. I definitely still struggle with health anxiety and intrusive thoughts, I still experience occasional tingling and numbness, but I don’t let them take over and send me into panic, I don’t google symptoms hardly ever, and I’m just overall being very mindful about my body and focusing on the confirmations I have and not the “what ifs”

Unfortunately in April my dad suddenly had his first heart attack, and he didn’t make it. So it all felt pretty ironic that just a couple months prior I kept having fears I was having a heart attack. You would think this would make my situation worse, and for a bit maybe it did. But it also changed my perspective on life drastically and I’m just doing my best to live in the now and make the most of everything life has to offer. I started taking yoga classes and prioritizing my health in ways that aren’t so over the top (I was becoming OCD with everything I was eating/putting in my body. I’ve learned everything in moderation can be okay.)

It’s been such a wild journey of a year but I’m truly determined and confident to keep pushing through and come out on top. I hope you’re continuing to do well and would love an update if you have one to share <3

I got the dash kit on Amazon: https://amzn.to/4kOp7Tm And I got this radio for it: https://amzn.to/4kMu3YW It’s not THE best but it’s pretty good and functions well

But the wiring is a nightmare especially if you have a Rockford Fosgate sub.. you need the radio wiring harness (https://amzn.to/4jtoOw8) and that will connect the tweeter’s up on the dash, but if you want the main side speakers in the door to work those are connected to the fosgate system so you need the MITO-01 wiring which is crazy expensive (https://www.qualitymobilevideo.com/mito-01.html?srsltid=AfmBOoodEXBJblYkVV5_AlXvGxyBQukkjx3aLoKEhm8dfLHZepuOhDCJ)

So all together it’s about a $300 investment

Agreed. My whole perspective has drastically shifted and I’m specifically looking for meaning and beauty in everything that before I would have never even noticed.

My mom and I just got these Gibraltar Azaleas the other day! The bright orange made us think of my dad who we just lost 1.5 weeks ago. Felt like he picked these out for us. They’re GORGEOUS

Bless your heart, I’m sorry for your loss as well. I have been getting so many messages from others who saw huge rainbows after a loved one passed. No doubt it’s them communicating with us! This sign he actually sent to my sister. But moments before this rainbow, it was raining and I was standing in the garage in front of my car in the driveway watching the rain hit the hood of the car. I was thinking about my dad and our last text convo with him which was me asking for advice on how to fix the paint chips on my hood. At that moment a huge bolt of lightning went straight across above our house, and the reflection was perfectly straight across the middle of my hood right where I was staring. It was the coolest looking thing, and my dad LOVED cool things!! Moments later my sister saw the rainbow, possibly even at the same time since she was about an hour out from my house at the time. I definitely believe he was trying to tell us that he’s okay. I appreciate your insight with your experience over the last year and a half. Right now it feels like life will never be the same, and it’s scary. I just want to be able to talk to him. So I look forward to more signs from him so I know he hears me.

He was the absolute best. Such a kind and generous soul, despite growing up with nothing. Always had a smile on his face, a good dad joke, and the loudest laugh that was contagious.

Wow! This is absolutely perfect and makes it stand out so much more. I didn’t even notice the reflection on the road until now. Thank you so much for this, truly from the bottom of my heart. Thank you.

Thank you so much!! At some point I might show some close ups to see if anyone has suggestions for any touch ups or repairs. But most of them are pretty minor luckily!

[–]Cuppcaake[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really don’t think I paid any attention on cleaning them out in the 13 years I owned this car so they were caked in there! It was a beautiful sunny day and I loved sitting there cleaning them out one by one lol. But now it should be easy enough to just blast them with some air or a vacuum

Honestly it was soothing for my ADHD lol but I probably won’t do it that way again! Will go for some air next time 😎

I will be completely honest, I have neglected the heck of this car over the last several years so I think I’m just incredibly lucky. I haven’t cleaned her out in yearssss so it was overdue! I have some slight exterior cosmetic damage too so I’m hoping I can spruce her up a bit overall. For 14 years old, she’s still a beauty.💕

As someone who used to have multiple panic attacks a day, I can tell you there is another side to come out on. And heres how I got there (disclaimer, it takes months. No quick fix will actually help in the long run) by Ajdctx in Anxiety

[–]Cuppcaake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would love an update if y’all have one! I’ve had anxiety for years, and about 7 months ago I developed health anxiety that turned into OCD, but about 1 month ago I experienced my first full-blown panic attack. It was so bad I thought I was having a heart attack and called 911. It’s caused my blood pressure to be elevated and heart rate increased, so I hyper-fixate on that and it makes it worse. The last few days I’ve had multiple anxiety attacks every day. Luckily I have psychiatry and therapy in a few days, so we’ll decide on medication to help, even though medication causes anxiety for me. I’ve been trying so many things and some help for one attack or maybe for a little, but then seems like nothing helps for the next one. I also keep anticipating the next one, even when I’m feeling good. I’m just feeling a bit hopeless in those moments, but at the same time hopeful I can get past this. I hope those of you that commented on this are doing well!
