I've been dealing with Panic Attacks for the last year and a half. One of the symptoms of my Panic Attacks is that I will get a tingling sensation in my arms and legs. The episodes have gotten better over time, but I still have symptoms sometimes. Lately I have had some physical symptoms come back that I thought I was done with.

I also have been active in the BDSM scene for most of my adult life and I enjoy being a rope bottom. Panic attacks can mimic actual physical problems. Because of this if I end up feeling my arms or legs go to sleep during a scene I don't have a good way of knowing if I'm actually having circulation problems or if my body is just being an *** hat. Any advice on this issue would be appreciated. I'm willing to stop a scene for my anxiety if necessary but I don't want to feel like my physical symptoms are holding me back.

I haven't talked to my doctor about this particular issue because I'm not quite sure how to bring it up.
