Department of Psychiatry, Wonkwang University Hospital

To take a break for about a year after retirement

I started experiencing symptoms of panic disorder just three days after going to work.

At first, I wondered why this was happening. I couldn't breathe. Was I going to die?

It was so scary...

They said this is exactly the symptom of a panic disorder.

 

I thought about taking some herbal medicine and trying to tough it out, but

Thanks to my mom's strong recommendation

Book an appointment at a nearby Wonkwang University Hospital

I visited.

 

At first, I was really hesitant because it was a psychiatrist...

I didn't really want to go.

Because so many people said I absolutely had to go...

I mustered up the courage to go visit.

 

Since it's my first visit, I wonder why there are so many surveys...

After filling it out, have a brief conversation with the doctor.

I got a prescription for a week's worth of medicine.

There are as many as three envelopes, haha.

 

I developed symptoms yesterday, so I took some extra medicine.

It seems like the condition is getting a little better...

 

However, I have to keep going to the hospital once a week.

I'm not sure... how about the others.

Will these symptoms ever get better?

 

For now, since tomorrow is my second visit, one more time

I will probably go... but I'm still having second thoughts.
