Two very short questions, but they really impact my being.
1. Has anyone ever had a full blown, shaking like a leaf, panic attack in public?
2. Does anyone ever wake daily with the feeling of "fear" but they cannot eliminate it, and really don't know why they are experiencing it daily?
Thank you.
Yes and yes. A couple months ago I told my dogs vet office clerks to call an ambulance for me. Ive had to go back to their office several times since for dog's ongoing issue. Rather embarrassing but... And that certainly wasnt the first time.
I'm scared every day. Sometimes I fixate on something and other times I'm just afraid period and often its both. Every day.
thank you for sharing....I was fairly normal up to a year + ago when I went off Paxil after 16 yrs. It has been a nightmare and a pill merry go round. I went full blown yesterday during a visit to the cardiologist.....I do feel for you. I've tried everything suggested, and just want to enjoy life again and not bring my family down. I had NEVER in all the yrs. of dealing with panic had an attack in public. I know the embarrassment now. I truly hope you and I find help.
Thank you I hope we do too.
At least it was a cardiologist's office; you're probably not the first to be seen shaking in fear in that place.
In all the years of having panic disorder I've never gone full blown in public. It also happened in a CBT class I have been taking. At this very minute I'm fighting panic, had it most of the day then it took off for a while then back for NO reason. I want to be able to control my own feelings and not feel so hopeless and afraid
I've waken up for the last couple mornings this way I've actually woke up having panic attacks and freak out thinking I'm about to kick the bucket!!! I get up n walk around and sip ice cold water and that helps me
yes, I feel rather think I am going to die......you would think that if we know are thoughts are irrational that we could overcome them.....how I wish
Waking up in panic
Panic attacks at night after waking
Panic attacks waking me from sleep
Night time waking
