hello friends. its been a couple months since I have posted. anxiety wise i have been doing good. im able to go out all day and do anything i please again. i got a new job that doesnt stress me out that i love. my headaches are still weekly.. thats about the only thing that hasnt changed. Tonight I had awaken to not one.. but TWO panic attacks. i haven't had these since i started my medication.. i dont know what caused this. the full moon seems to affect me so much eveytime so i believe maybe that is why. im just worried that these awful panic attacks will start coming back.. everytime i get one i feel like im going to die :( its hard to walk and breathe. should i be worried?
Do not worry about your panic attacks, as always they will pass.
Hospital told me even if I pass out during an attack my body will reset itself and I will be fine when I regain consciousness.
The key thing during an attack is to regain control of our breathing and slow it down to avoid hyperventilating.
During an attack or in the onset of one try to focus on an object that you can see, a picture, a tree, something in the room and think as many thoughts about it as possible to distract the mind, e.g. You see a chair, how was it made, who made it, what type of tree did it come from, how long would it have taken to make etc slow down and regulate breathing until the panic subsides.
Peace ![]()
hi
wat meds are you taking
Anxiety is apart of you. It is apart of your personality. It isn’t something that will go away. You just learn to cope and deal with it correctly. We all have relapses. I get them every so often. It is how you more forward that is important. Keep going to work, keep getting up and doing what YOUR want to do. The moment you start doubting or questioning yourself is the moment you will leave Anxiety back into your daily routine. Your doing great , your having a wobble that is all. Do your breathing exercises. Get up and brush yourself off and keep working hard at beating this horrible illness x
