What kind of panic attacks? My sister has been getting this strange gripping feeling in her chest every so often related to stress. I get panicked often by random thoughts, compulsions/ideas, or plain fear/:

[rushaine in reply to Whats_wrong_with_me]

panic attacks that are triggered by stress and fear and NOT actually inheritance or physical illness etc

I still get milder anxiety attacks occasionally and symptoms related to stress and anxiety (heart skips/palpitations, insomnia etc) now and then, but not the full-blown panic attacks I was having at the beginning of the year.

[rushaine in reply to Queeniescakes]

thats a good way what have you done?

[Queeniescakes in reply to rushaine]

PTSD started the panic attacks. I went to see a therapist, and once I realised the cause of the panic, I could start dealing with it. I also see a relaxation therapist who has taught me ways of dealing with everyday stress & anxiety. I don't always practice it though, and hence I can get some symptoms again. Also sometimes life throws a lot of stuff at me at once, and then no amount of relaxation practice will help. I also take lots of supplements that have really helped with stress, anxiety & insomnia, namely, magnesium citrate, Vit B complex 50, relora, passionflower & lemon balm. The magnesium with passionflower & lemon balm is great as a pre-bed relaxant & sleep aid.
