...but it was a large screen TV showing the bombing of Baghdad in the middle of the lobby of our corporate high-rise building. I had to walk past this horrific display each day in order to get to the elevator to get to my office.
My son was serving in Iraq at the time.
I was having frequent anxiety attacks. I found it hard to walk two blocks to the Starbucks because I would have weird dizzy spells where it felt like my head was floating above my body, and I couldn't tell how far I was from the sidewalk, or if my feet were firmly on the ground. I was afraid of passing out on the street. I started using a cane because it made me feel more stable when I was walking during dizzy spells and panic attacks.
