  patricia Can you try going for a walk? Or something, even folding clothes, putting away dishes? T says to take several, slow, deep breaths with you diaphragm. Think only of the slow, deep breath - the way it feels as it goes through your now, how your belly expands when you breath in, the feel as it passes out of your mouth . . . . I know panic attacks are icky and scary . . . these are some of the things that help me . . . . even if it's just a little and even if it only gives you something to do while the panic attack washes over you . . . .

Hi Pat,
Wish I could do more. Moment by moment sometimes. And no, alcohol isn't a good idea, that just creates a potential problem, but then, sometimes I have to take "a pill" so it's not much different except that one is controlled. Can you talk to pdoc about getting something for those moments? SongBird

Hi,
I'm already on so much meds at such a high dosage my doc won't touch my perscription... I feel so guilty about the alcohol because I have developed a problem.... I do weekly meetings even. I'm not proud that I still use some alcohol when anxiety hits... I am working on that one day at a time... it is harder than I originally thought. Patricia

Hi ster,
I have only tried the chat room once... since I gave up interest in the computer for several yrs I am slow at typing and found it a bit hard to keep up.... I'm hoping I'll be back into the swing of things on the computer again soon.  Patricia xx |
