Okay here it goes....I had my first panic attack last night. Not my absolute first, but the first one I have had it years and it freaked me out. Luckily I had a friend here with me who also happens to be a nurse, but I am feeling really nervous about the whole thing now. If it happened once it can happen again. I don't like that thought at all. I'm so not good at this talking thing so sorry if it seems so jumbled. I'm better at the not talking but now see that isn't getting me anywhere. Thanks for listening.

I had them too, I took meds but my body adjusted to them and the panic attacks got worse. It was so bad, I couldn't leave my house. I got so tired of this,I decided to take back my life! I bought a book called," Don't Panic" and read it . I worked on the techniques and stopped the attacks...Once in a while,I feel one coming on, but I work through it and I stop it. I have control.

Thanks, I'll have to check into that. It totally caught me off guard and it's not easy to catch me off guard or not in control. It's like my body rebelled against me. I ALWAYS look like I'm in control to not let others see the pain I'm in. Glad you are doing better. It's amazing how something you read and apply can change the course of life.

I used to have them. Then one day I heard a doctor on the radio saying they were related to stored up emotions (not being expressed). So I went to that doctor and stopped having them. We never dealt with them per se, but I felt safe with him. He was stronger than me and I felt protected. I think that helped.

i know having an attack is scary and the thought that it could happen is very scary also. but there are meds and exercises to do to help. it took me a long time to realize i had to go to the doc and sure enough i have gad. youre not alone always remember that and klonopin works wonders for this stuff.
