Close Panic Attacks
It's really a long story, because I have suffered with this for so long, almost 40 years. But, I will try to tell you that my first full blown panic attack happened when I was 9 YOA and has been with me my entire life except for a few years here and there of what I call "REMISSION". It has been a long and difficult struggle and I'm always trying to defeat it.
Treatments
- Ativan Working / Worked
- It is the only medicine that has literally ever ended a panic attack for me. However, I have taken it for so long now that it is not as effective as it used to be.
- Trazodone Not Working
- I took this medicine to help when the panic attacks restarted, but it truly made me worse. It made my anxiety worsen more quickly. I immediately felt "high" all of the time like I was walking around with a "PUMPKIN HEAD" full of air.
- Xanax Not Working
- I took this medicine only once. Smallest dose knocked me out for about 6-7 hours after the effect of it made me so high I had a horrible panic attack
- Prozac Working / Worked
- It really helped at first, and I feel if I hadn't had to continue working so hard, I could have went into remission again but the outside influences of stress and marital problems, as well as my high stressed job, just made my total condition worse.
Close Bereavement
I have suffered many losses in my life, but most recently the loss of my mother on March 26th this year. All of my losses have had a deep impact on my life and are probably a direct link to my panic attacks. Today is the anniversay of my father's death and also has a lot to do with my joining this community today.
Treatments
- Crying Working / Worked
- Still crying.
- Getting Angry Somewhat Helpful
- I screamed a lot at first, still do in the middle of the night when I'm alone.
- Helping Others Working / Worked
- This has been the most helpful for me. I cook for anyone I know who is ill, needs food, or has lost someone themselves. I probaly spend at least $300 - $400 a week on groceries and it's just me and my husband who live here.
- Keeping Busy Not Working
- Just helps me to bury my outward emotions.
- Music Somewhat Helpful
- Sometime's it makes me feel bluer.
- Poetry Somewhat Helpful
- In the weeks before her death my mother begged me to write her a poem. I couldn't do it until she passed.
- Prayer Too Soon to Tell
- Pray every day.
- Remembering Not Working
- Too painful.
- Support from Friends & Family Not Working
- No one want's to talk about it.
- Support Groups Too Soon to Tell
- Just joined this community.
- Talking Working / Worked
- I'll let you know.
- Time Not Working
- Still hurting too bad.
Open Depression
Depression brought on by severe panic and anxiety disorder.
Treatments
- Prozac Somewhat Helpful
- Even though I take meds I still have problems.
- Psychotherapy Considering
- I haven't been to counseling in years. I need to be able to trust someone.
- Support from Friends & Family Working / Worked
- Although I know everyone needs a strong support system, this is something I have never experienced, but I know if I did, it would help immensely.
- Trazodone Not Working
- Didn't work. Made me feel really high.
