Mental Health Support

There's a street in Berkeley that triggers severe panic attacks in me. I know very well why it does but the knowing doesn't help.

I went there once alone, seeking some kind of peace maybe, or maybe to face my fears and tough it out as my crazy mom might have advised (if I'd ever told her...), and I ended up sitting on the curb crying, the people passing by probably thinking "just another day in Berkeley."

My last psychiatrist often seemed very frustrated with me because there were places I would not go, stories I would not tell.

I have terrifying nightmares sometimes and when I'm able to force myself awake I can sometimes figure out where they came from but that doesn't make me feel any better.

Yes, I know hypnosis therapy isn't about that. It still scares me.
