Dear stevethepanicer:

I like your fast action here, the inquiry into the local tai chi class and email the mindfulness based cognitive therapy!

I had a partial panic attack myself yesterday. I decided to give a Uniterian (not Christian, supposedly all inclusive, no faith required) Church a try Sunday morning, a day ago, and after consuming too much caffeine I arrived at the church. The topic was.. demons. Before the service, on the big screen above, there they were: computer images of demons. The point of the speech was that there are no real demons, but the images, some were scary. So there I am sitting, very well caffeinated, watching the images of scary demons on the screen. Then starts the speech and I felt it, thought about running out, thought I might collapse right there, but gave some breathing a try and was okay, but my day overall was odd.

If any pastor or minister is reading this- no demons please, not on the screen, or otherwise, if possible.

But I digress. Point is, there is always a need to choose external circumstances, places and people in our lives so to promote safety and comfort as well as working on the area between the ears. I call it the Macro and the Micro approach.
