Imagine feeling a panic attack start and then instead of just dizzy you also think you're peeing lol it makes me panic more.
I never considered anxiety crippling but it is.
Before the whole peeing thing I had a history of fainting when I had anxiety and I had at one point gotten a good handle of it
I know you're asking for advice so idk why I needed to share my pee phobia. One thing I do is just be honest , but that's because I've fainted and had seizures from panic attacks so I know it's better to just tell someone around I'm a headcase and freaking out for no reason and usually try to keep the conversation lighthearted but in case something does happen someone will know to tell people that it's a panic attack. But also telling someone in a light hearted way makes you look at your feelings from another persepective and for me that can bring me back to reality a bit.
Just know you're not alone.
I swear this anxiety is the reason I'm not rich and always broke. Best luck to you. I know people really do overcome it completely and others learn to cope with the first signs and end it before it begins so just keep positive and try different things until you find what works for you.
