Panic Attacks
Lately I’ve been having really bad panic attacks. They happen out of no where and I don’t know my triggers.. if I even have any. I’ve started therapy..and am trying to take the right steps to try and stop these attacks. They are horrible. My whole body shakes, it goes numb, and I can’t find any relief. I was prescribed Xanax but I don’t like how it makes me feel. I’ve gone through so many tests and ER visits with no results at all. I keep trying to explain to my partner how it feels but he doesn’t understand because he doesn’t deal with anxiety. This just recently started happening. A few weeks ago I had anxiety but not to this extent. I just want them to stop :(
@bvs323- my heart goes out to you. Experiencing panic attacks is frightening, it feels like our body is out of our control. Are you alone when these attacks occur? Or are you with your friend. Hopefully your therapist is giving you some techniques on how to ride out the attacks. If not- you should certaintly ask them for advice. Many factors including what you eat and drink can affect how often panic hits. Best of luck to you.
