For me it is really weird. I never had anxiety in my whole life. Tons of depression since 13 years old.
Then about 12 years ago I started getting anxiety. 2012 and 13 it got way over the top horrible. It mostly happened when I was in a severe depression and it would cause me to get very paranoid. Why did this all of sudden get added???? My buddy gets panic attacks and is convinced he is having a heart attack. Even get symptoms of a heart attack. His doctor has tested his heart a number of times and he is as healthy as a horse. No rhythm or reason to it. It happens for no apparent reason because nothing in his life has changed.

I never experienced a true panic attack until I was 13 years old, but I already experienced a major depressive episode, anxiety, and the symptoms of a personality disorder before my first panic attack.
Now I wish that I could target why and how these things were triggered. Yesterday I realized that depression can trigger anxiety & anxiety can trigger depression. Strange how that works. |

Turtle, I think it could. If you start feeling weird for any reason it can set off a panic attack. Even worrying about having a panic attack can cause one. I have learned to tell the difference tho.
