ER ViSIT

[Isaack]

Just had a panic attack and I felt like my mind was gona shut down. Anyone experiences this ?

Hi, I know what you mean. Do you feel a little better now? What do you think caused it? Did you do too much today?

[Isaack in reply to Francesca61]

Im still scared. I felt like I was dying like I was not in control

[Francesca61 in reply to Isaack]

I feel so bad for you. It will pass but you'll probably feel anxious a few more days. Drink lots of water. Add lemon to it, or have chamomile tea. Before I started taking Paxil 10mg, I would take Tylenol which calmed me down. Were extra tired today? I know that is what raises my anxiety levels.

Yes! All the time. Has anything changed? Anything different? That could explain things. I’m glad you are okay now.

[Isaack in reply to Hopeful-Tinkerbell]

Sorta. I'm still scared

[Hopeful-Tinkerbell in reply to Isaack]

If the ER sent you home I’m sure you’re fine. Try to relax. I know how hard that can be though. Maybe exercise or stay busy. Idle minds breed negativity. Unless you are able to sleep which is good. I’m not having a good day at all so I understand. I’ll say an extra prayer for you!

Yes, I felt the same way

Panic Attacks r horrible and you feel really drained of energy after. I have suffered them on and off for years. I don’t have them very often now it’s Usually when I am away from my own house and always at night when I wake up in the middle of the night.. i am a very poor sleeper. It’s definitely mind over matter and I always seem to have them when I am out of my comfort zone. When they pass I feel stupid that I have let the situation cause me to panic. When I feel one coming on I try to distract myself by thinking I am not going to die, I put the tv on, wake my husband to talk to me, go on my iPad, anything to try to stop me thinking of panic.

I really feel for you and anyone who has them but please try to be reassured my doctor said no one has ever died from a panic attack. Wishing you well and hope you don’t have anymore
