Yes, terribly and I feel if I've had a bad day or night the next day I ache everywhere from tensing up and I feel gross, lightheaded, spells of nausea, a day feels a week sometimes

I agree , it’s so strange how our body reacts I still can’t believe myself that I have anxiaty and panic attacks, all this started a year ago , befor then I never knew what neither was over night my life changed

Exactly the same with me when I was just 16 so 6 years ago now, and my life was great and now it's started up again, but ever been the same since it first started! Have you been too doctors or therapy about your anxiety and panic attacks?x

No I haven’t , i wouldn’t say I’m in denial but I feel embarrassed abit , if I was to see a doctor about it I know he would recommend medication for anxiaty and I don’t wanna take any medication. I thought of goin to a anxiaty therapist tho I just have to find the courage to go

I have felt embarrassed for years thinking I was weak and to talk myself out of it. Medications have really help me. I would see a therapist too.

I try to be logical about the symptoms but it’s not easy. I positive talk to myself. I say you have already been threw this many times ur not going to die and ur gonna take control of ur life. Most of the time it works but when they are really bad I try to ignore it and do something to keep my mind going. Read my story it’s title my struggle for the past 9months.

I am completely WIPED OUT for a day or two after a panic attack, all I want to do is sleep and I'm so dizzy. I feel more on edge and anything small can make me upset, I feel extra emotional. After effects of a panic attack are almost worse than the panic attacks themselves :(

It is true that we do get completely "wiped out" after experiencing a panic attack. Physically, restore your body's balance and emotionally go on with your life. Don't allow "fear of fear" take over. Don't allow the "what if" to become your focus. It happened, it's over with and we go on.

For emotional duress, meditation and deep breathing can help calm the mind. YouTube has many Audio Videos that can quiet your fears and negative thoughts. I find audio works better than just music. When the mind is that active with fearful thoughts, it needs a guiding voice to put you back on the right path to calmness and serenity. I wish you peace. Breathe xx
