Hi there,
Has there been any research that has looked into how daily experiences can trigger depression or anxiety attacks - environmental changes like weather and temperature or social changes like seeing a specific person or hearing a specific phrase? Is it believed that specific experiences that can trigger the onset of an attack? TIA |

Absolutely...usually it comes under PTSD research I think.
As for heart attacks, stress can certainly cause that, and being constantly triggered etc can be very stressful imo.

It's possible; I like the Mayo Clinic's analogy:

I have found that being around a lot of people causes me stress and I get confused in my thinking. If someone gets angry or upset with me I get so I have trouble speaking and often stand frozen in silence unable to speak. Sometimes I can not hear what is being said, and other times I can not reconize people I know, it is like they are not even there. If I search for them I can not find them. It is like having a panic attack, except I become silent and frozen in place, instead of upset as in panic attack.
When it is over I am confused and very tired. I do have a seizure disorder, not grand mal, that doctors have said may be the answer.
