Find something to distract yourself. Is there a friend you can call? Or you can do like me and go to the washroom to make it pass. ;) Hey it helps me.

i dont know all i now is that i cant breathe, dont even know what keeps bringing them on.

I have the same problem, half the time they come when I am not anxious at all. Today for example I was watching the Mayweather/Hatton fight (boxing) I got a little excited when Mayweather starting putting on pressure and boom I almost went into a panick attack (managed to calm down). I know how you feel we all do, it is scary but you will be fine.

I have had a rough week. I am in training right now and away from family. We have had long days, not much sleep, plus I have some weird physical things going on. My ears feel full, I feel like I am falling and it feels like brain zaps. But I am not on any meds but Xanax and I am not sure if it can cause brain zaps. It reallllly freaks me out. I am afraid I am on the verge of a large panic attack.

hanks for being here

I'm here for the same reason as you, it's good to talk to somebody about it. And everybody else thinks we are crazy. ;)

:)i think it has passed know thanks, couldnt have gotten through it without you guys.

You made it thru it and survived! YAY!!!!!

Isn't it "funny" how we all seem to suffer from this same strange "monster", but yet we do or handle things differently.

If I'm having a panic attack, I want to be completely and totally alone. I want to be in a dark room and completely quiet. That causes me to try to focus on being somewhere else, somewhere that is relaxing and tranquil. I could NEVER get online to "talk" me thru it, nor be around someone to "help" me thru it.

Heck, maybe Dr. Phil could help us out here from DS. Truly, who here could find the strength to go on national TV if there was a possibility of 1) it actually happening, and or 2) Dr Phil actually being able to help each of us within our own locality?

I'm serious! There's been a lot of talk about not enough research, doctors don't know what to do, etc., etc. I'm about desperate enough to write a long letter to Dr. Phil, but if chosen (which is like the lottery, I'm sure), I ain't going alone!!! Raise your hand if you would go with me!!! I AM THAT DESPERATE!

I'm having alot of anxiety today too.
