Bebu... Panic attacks are awful....I usually don't even read this forum because I feared they would come back, even if I read about others having panic attacks...

I have done great for a few years, until today. I was stranded without my car, and I freaked. I begged a friend of my son's to drive me home.. He did.. I was almost in tears..I panic if I can't go if I need to go. Even if I am afraid to drive, I still have the security blanket my car is there, should I need to go..

My only suggestion is to try not to get over excited or tired. ANd learn deep breathing. Sounds so easy to do when a panic attack hits. I forget everything I know when they hit me. I am thinking maybe crying will let it all go .. I will have to try that. I just can't cry now..

I hate panic attacks...I hate how they control me.. Sometimes when I get real mad at the panic attack, they sometimes stop.

I wish I could help you more. I wish I could help even me more. Darn things controlled me for years. I thought they were history, until today........... my heart pounding a mile a min..I want to run, but don't know where to run to.. what a hoot .. huh...

ooo stress isn't good for panic attacks either..but i guess you already know that....am gonna jump in cold shower and freeze the panic out of me....
