Panic Disorder

Under the tongue root, a fight most dread. While another rages behind in the head.
Robert Graves The White Goddess - Battle of the Trees (32-35)

What does it feel like to be inside the head of somebody who's has a panic disorder? Well you should read an excerpt from the book White goddess. You're literally fighting inside your head with two different emotions. Good and bad. Calm and fear.
