I have suffered from these sensations as a
result of high levels of anxiety, has
anyone suffered from this and has anyone
managed to rid themselves of it?
Thanks debs

I have felt like I dont live in my own
head for months.
That with feeling I will get a heart
attack every day
lying in bed thinking "this is it" I am
going to die
heart palpitations
sweaty palms
constant weird stomach aches and pains
shaking
feeling of electricity running through my
body
jolts and startling easily
dizziness and nausea
chest pains and twitches
feeling of something bad is going to
happen
all in a days work! Its getting better
though.. But about 6 months ago it was at
its worst.. Waking up alone at 5 am in a
bangkok guest house in the middle of a
panic attack with nowhere to go or noone
to talk to! That was hell!

I don`t think anyone can understand how it
feels until you have it. My boyfriend
gave me so much grief over my anxiety
where all I needed was his support and
reassurance!
Thankfully I don`t have the panic attacks
anymore but if I could just get rid of
this horrible spaced out feeling then I
might get somewhere. Do you feel teary a
lot cos I do all the time I feel like i`m
going crazy, damn those hormones!

Since I am not a woman I dont really get
that teary eyed about it all but I get
incredibly frustrated at not being able to
live a "normal" life and have normal
energy levels.
I get freaked out soemtimes even
travelling somewhere, feeling like
something bad is going to happen.
Just hope the good days come soon and all
this crap is over!
Hang in there. And try get your boyfriend
to read up on it so he can see what its
like. Tell him I am a 28 year old guy who
has worked for 5 years in the music
industry and I get such bad panic attacks
sometimes I am in a cab and 100% convinced
its my last day on earth.
