      From ronna October 27

      when i use to get panic attacks, i got the same feeling, like i was getting no air, and was dying. some trick i learned, if you are alone call anybody, even if its 3 in the morning, you will be gasping for breath, and hardly able to talk, but once the other person starts talking, while you are screaming i am dying, in a while you will start to feel better, before you know it, you will start breathing normally. afterwards i would shake for about 15 minutes so bad, my teeth would be chattering, i would always run for one of my nerve pills and chew it, then swollow hot water to get it in your system. if someone is home, talk to them. i know it is horrible. i had panic disorder for about 20 years, then it just went away. then i got agorphobia, ( afraid to leave my apt. alone.)i also have anxiety. if you need any info on panic, i could write a book. mine would come out of no where. i could think of one and get one. i know it is hell. medicine takes a while to get in your system. sometimes they don't work. your doc. will find the right combination for you. good luck. ronna p.s. my doctor told me once, the worse thing that could happen is, you could pass out, but when you come too, you would be breathing normal. i never passed out.
