Hi, I'm so sorry you feel like this. You sound as if you are under pressure or pushing yourself too far. There is nothing worse than feeling like this and I urge you to visit your GP asap and discuss it . Here's hoping you have an understanding GP. Try and keep calm, I know how hard that is...there myself. But please do some deep breathing and keep your mind occupied with anything distracting. Good Luck xxx

thanks for listening. i will visit gp a.s.a.p. i dont think of myself as week,and do really try to keep composure,especially as i am a mother of 2 teenagers,but when a wave of panic rushes through me,i am overcome and feel the need to shut down to cope. this is not my first time to experience this,so i do know that with time and medication i will be able to gain control. i also know,that this is happening as a result of stress from both work and home,but want to get a grip on it as quick as possible

yes i suppose it is,but i dont want to give in to it,and look for inner strengnth to surpress it,but its hard.

I totally understand. I'm currently having anxiety symptoms, but the trigger is unknown. Having suffered from panic attacks previously and conquered them I am determined not to let them take over my life again. I'm not sure how I will do it but I have to!

I wish you luck

its tuff isnt it. some times during the day,at work,when my mind is fully engaged,i can overcome it ,to an extent, so i think it can be controlled by mind over matter,but then something happens and i can feel myself climbing down the ladder of doom.Then i inner talk to myself,and try and pull myself back.,no-one at my work place knows my plight.....so i must be a reasonable actor.. i wish you good luck also.

Tell someone you trust and talk about your feelings x don't feel bad for having a good cry x exercise! it really helps and just take it a day at a time
