Safe places

[saint]

Hi
I have certain safe places that i can go with out worring about a panic attack, my cousins house, a coffee shop(1 only), my wifes parents house and almost but not quiet my folks house.
over the last 8 months i have now added a quick shop (shop at a petrol station). i think this is excellent progress.

Does any have "safe places" ?

Nature, of course. Lost on some trail. Swimming in some random lake. Nobody near for miles.

with my panic disorder safe places or "comfort zones" as I call them are rare!!!.....basically my parents place and the neighborhood they live in. So basically a 5min radius around my parents I can travel and be comfortable for the most part. Everywhere else = panic attack zones

For me it depends who else is around more than the place itself.

My safe place is my bedroom. It's not outside of my house, but it is the only place that I feel safe. The problem is that when people come over, I don't feel safe at all. If people are downstairs, or if someone knocks on the door, or even calls sometimes, I get incredibly shaken up & my heart starts beating out of my chest like crazy & I feel like I'm going to pass out. As long as no one is here, & no one calls or comes over, I feel pretty safe in my room. I feel most safe at night, though, which is why I hate sleeping at night, because then I have to be up during the day, which is hard for me.

Im the same way with having people over. If I go out and get anxious I just leave, when people are over its a lot harder to leave/go to your safe place when youre already there! Its hard to tell ppl to GTFO when youre anxious too.

Anywhere where there's not a lot of people.

I don't really have a safe place..I have safe people, if that counts.

When I'm at home it's in my bedroom!But other wise I get out my the sea and go to the stony beach where there is usually nobody!
