thirteen said it bestadmitting that i was afraid. I don't know exactly what i had this overwhelming fear of but i instincively knew that my anxiety was caused by fear. It helped me get thru it all.
From your posts I will tell you what I feel.
You want a quick fix. You are obsessing over having someone and you said if you don't get to be with this random person until 2010 you will die! Let me tell you something, the only person who could permanently make you feel better about yourself is Jesus himself.
Let's say someone does come along that makes you feel complete for a moment. He/she (I don't know your sex but i'll assume it's female) gives you the time of day and wants to hang out and maybe even get to know you beyond your desperate loins.
You'll start planning the names of your first 5 children out of shear joy that you won't have to face any personal issues on your own and will be able to, in fact, bypass them by projecting what your idea of happiness on to this hypothetical relationship---
I'm guessing the 2.5 kids, and white picket fence that nearly everyone's minds are ingratiated with from the moment they were born--- from television and generational conditioning passed down from our 1950s era ancestors.
You attribute your panic attacks to stress you've been having lately, but let me assure you- the fact that you are seeking the timeline to when you will be united with your true love is the ultimate reason for your attacks. Stress in your real life is just a trigger that catapults you into the same pit of helplessness shared by your urge to find your true love. the dark pit of aloneness
helplessness is the key. Your obsession for having your true love is what you have deemed the answer to said helplessness. You have taken this one step further and subconsciously declared you will never feel complete without said true love. You have in essence given up on your self to truly face yourself. To truly face the reality that you are alone. You are utterly alone. Later in your evolution you will know that even in the most dynamically heaven inspired relationship- the one that will prove the existence of god to you first hand- you are still alone. A flame of god resides in you and you can understand it, learn from it, even grow into it, but the best any relationship will ever do for you is remind you of this flame- help you attune yourself to it- to the point where you can no longer differentiate between yourself and it.
The fact that you don't even have a face to match this desire truly demonstrates the desperation, determination and complete blind ambition of your pursuit. You need to stop and take what I am saying to heart because I swear on anything that should only be sworn upon in only the most honest of moments that I do not want to see you like this, just as much as you don't want panic attacks- for the obvious reasons.
But for the love of yourself, give up on trying to quench your thirst from another individual. Focus on your own individual. Don't even try to internalize the idea that everything you need is inside yourself. You are at an extreme point where the only acceptable/logical/perceptible answer is outside of yourself- caught in some web that the stars have plotted against you.
This is a dream, a fantasy, it's all made up. True, astrology has deep and profound truths, but very few people you will ever come across can perceive the depths of astrology necessary to truly give you any sort of answer. The energies of planets and the way they align are feelings that astrologers must come to understand through deep evolutions of the soul- think like this.... Linda Goodman would never tell you that you will meet your true love in 2010, and she's a great astrologer.
Stop looking to the stars for answer(excuses), start focusing your eyes on the great hilarity of it all. Say this 10 times every hour of the waking day--- I am powerless to stop what will happen to me, who I will meet, and who I will become. But fear will not guide me any longer. If I should die a thousand times, live a thousand years, and never meet another person who understood me, I will still never let fear be the host of my party.
If you carry this cross, eventually the search for another who understands you, loves you unconditionally- without paranoia on your part- will reveal itself to you. It will reveal itself to you. It will.
Then you will be firmly down the rabbit hole.
Buck up buttercup, you're alone just like the rest of us--- death would be easier, yet we live on
