ok a few weeks ago,i had a argument with
my friend.and when she walked away i
suddenly became very lightheaded and i was
unable to breathe propery and i was
gasping for air, and all i wanted to do
was cry, but i couldnt cause i was too
busy trying to breathe, but i was
desparate to cry at the same time, and i
was just in pain. was that a panic
attack?
it gradually passed away. it happend
before when i was much younger,when i got
lost and i was scared i was never going to
find home again.

i also suffer from frequent panic
attacks!
Mine come on when i least expect it,and
for no apparent reason.
I tend to just feel extreamly
paniced,frighted,hard to breathe and all i
want to do is just to jun outside and get
"cool" i normal just have to move out of
the room and stick my head out of the
window and drink cool water slowly,not
fast as i found it worsend the situation.
If you can feel one comming on though just
take deap beathes and think about somthing
else,do something else anything...i know
its hard at the time to think about
anything else but if you remove your self
from the "panic" situation it may help,as
it does for me!
take care and keep calm!

panic attacks Posted: 04-21-08 01:15am
Panic attacks are real, even though some
people even doubt their existence. For
those of us that have suffered from
anxiety we know it to be true, and finding
cures for panic attacks seems to be few
and far between.

Cbt is great for panic anxiety and
depression but remember you have to do the
exercises everyday so it does take a lot
of work and self discipline. I still do
the tea form exercise that I learned in
the book by sam obitz daily and the
thought processes that eliminate panic and
anxiety do become ingrained over time. You
can get rid of them as I am living proof
of that
