Hello Johnnie,

Sorry your panic and anxiety bothered you today. We know you deal with this every day and you are brave to share it and brave to hang on until it passes. Hope you have a better evening.

No worries Johnnie.

fast food and soda have always given me panic attacks, they cause my heart to race and shakiness. I no longer drink beverages with caffeine and still eat fast food just no mcdonalds, mcdonalds is the worst. Soda, if it contains caffeine, is probably what caused these symptoms, try and lay off caffeine and see if it helps. I hope you can find the solution to your problem

Soda equals caffeine and caffeine and anxiety are not friends

I have drank soft drinks for 40 years. I recently found they drain your body of potassium as your body digests the phosphoric acid. I was curious one day after experiencing what you have and sure enough that's what did it. I knew about caffeine but not about that. Now I take a potassium supplement when I drink soda.

I've also come to learn symptoms have reasons and if you can logically (I know when panic hits the brain is overridden with chemical feelings) see what's happening and search for answers it's usually logical not nothing to fear.

Hi there I think we all are a bit 'immune' to people saying junk food and sugar are bad for us but it's true. The sugar/caffeine/fats in junk food and drinks do nothing for our body or minds. Hope you feel better soon x

It's only anxiety and it will pass. Your blood pressure and pulse are well within the low-normal range so there is nothing at all to worry about in that regard. Getting anxious about these symptoms causes adrenaline to flow through your body, so you will likely feel shaky, dizzy and jumpy. Have you ever noticed that after a scare, a dog often shakes its' body? That is to get rid of the extra adrenaline. Go for a walk, ride, run....wear it off.
