I have had panic attacks & anxiety as long as I can remember. In middle age, I found a fabulous therapist & sat on his couch from time to time for over seven years. It's been about six years since my last tune-up & I thought it might be time to check in.

He retired.

And with this information & thought of finding a new therapist, I felt my anxiety start to sneak in. Thankfully, it did not progress to full on panic attack. But I found it ironic that after all this time, this news would be cause for worry.
