Hi Everyone:
I don't have panic disorder myself, but I've been living with my girlfriend for 3 years, and she's had it for just over a year of that time. She had her first panic attack on our way to Vegas to be married. We never made that trip. When we first got back home after that failed attempt, she was really sick, and had trouble going to get groceries, or going out to dinner or to my parents house. She got some therapy (she doesn't want to use meds at all, which I support) and things got much better. We even managed to go camping last summer for a few days. I try to be really patient and understanding of everything she goes through. I really love her. But we both feel that not getting married last year changed our relationship, and we talked alot about trying again. She thinks that she might be able to make the flight this time. Both we're both terrified to try. Any advice? Should we try anyways knowing that a failed attempt might be a setback for her?
