Thank you for sharing, I can identify with anxiety disorders but when I came into recovery, I didn't know what they were. I heard people say they had anxiety attacks, and wondered what they were talking about. Then they shared about how they felt, and their reactions to these attacks, and I was able to recognize them within myself.
1) Having trouble walking three blocks to go to the grocery store.
2) Walking over grates of any size or shape
3) Fear of bridges and thunder storms
4) Being on a crowded bus and having to get off.
5) Scheduling all my appointments for one day so I didn't have to leave my place.
Thankfully, by working the steps and my program of recovery, all these fears have gone for the greatest part. There are still times in the grocery store I get overwhelmed with too many people and can lose direction as to what I am after, but I don't have to run away in fear today.

Thankfully, most of this has still changed thanks to the 12 Steps on all aspects of my life.
