Hi,
I've been suffering from panic disorder since age 4, now 18-its part of every waking hour of my life. It is a horrible thing to deal with, you think everything is wrong with you and that no one understands. On a daily basis I usually feel the following symptoms, dizziness,shakiness,nausea/upset stomach,feeling out of it, tightness in throat(a choking like feeling or gagging feeling),numbness,racing heart, etc. But sometimes it only happens at a certain time of the day-does that happen to anyone else?? Cuz its scaring me!!! and also I have been on several medications and still currently am. I am on xanax(2 different kinds), neurotin,and risperdal for sleep. Has anyone else been medicated and found anything helpful??? Also has anyone gone through a period where they will be panic-attack free and then for like a couple days or a week or more have their anxiety peak up? Let me know...I'm very scared!! this is keeping me from doing everyday activities so much so i've missed 23 days of school just this semester....HELP
