I have suffered mild panic attacks since i was in my early twenties so approx 15 years. My granny and my mum both suffered them too so I suppose it was only a matter of time before I did. I am so neevous about everything flying, lifts, getting unwell, dying. I think it's because I am a mum I am scared to leave my kids. The last four months my anxiety has been through the roof. I have lost so much weight because I barely eat as my Stomach is in constant knots. I couldn't be any more happier in my life than I am right now but the panic and anxiety is happening daily. I get so unwell during a panic attack I convince myself I am dying. Not been to the gp as I hate tablets. Thinking of trying rescue remedy. Has anyone else tried it?
Hi Emma,
Good news, it's just anxiety 
. Trust me as I have suffered for 8 and a half years and and I have experienced nearly every possible symptom. When you are anxious your nervous system pumps adrenaline around your stomach and it churns. Everyone is scared that they are going to die when they have a panic attack. That's what panic attacks are after all. If you want more help check out the freedom from fear program by David Johnson.
Thanks so mucn for taking the time to reply. It's nice to hear other people's experiences. It's hard to think you can feel so bad all just from anxiety x
