Are people more prone to flashbacks after a panic attack? I had a bad panic attack(my very 1st panic attack ever) the evening before I had my flashback and I was just wondering.
Thanks, Sunnye |

They might be related. I dont have flashbacks just anxiety attacks. and sometimes i get a flashback or body memory and no anxiety attack. so I am not sure for me they are not related.

Hmmmmmmmm good question. i can't even remember now it's been a while. I think often mine have been flashback then panic.... or both at the same time. But they prolly work different for everyone?

Thanks, Guys. I don't know if it was the panic attack or the terrible experience in the ER(I went to the ER for the panic attack and wasn't treated well--felt completely helpless).

I don't think that haveing a panic attacks has anything to do with flash backs cause i get alot of flash backs but i don't have panic attacks when i have my flash backs i have a panic attack after the fact i had my flash back usuly if someone yelling at me i have a flash back or if i reading something that reminds me of my childhood life i get a flash back

So was not being treated well with the result then feeling helpless, is this what triggered your flashback do you think?

Thanks for the input, shybabygirl. I wasn't sure what really triggered the flashback.

I think so. The feeling of helplessness in the ER must have been very close to the helplessness I felt as a little girl in the event which was suppressed by my mind.
