Panic attack, how to deal with them.

[Khonkaen]

We had a guest to tea last night, a really nice lady from next door, we conversed using Googletranslate and all was well. She was telling me about her thoughts and beliefs and everything was going okay with my stupid brain. The she got talking about her unfaithful husband and that now he is now late 60s and very sick and something clicked in my head,

I had to leave the table, sit down and breath deeply, I then took a Lora-ze-pam (for axiety and sleep), then another, which I was told was okay and after a while I calmed down. She looked a bit startled and left politely thanking us for the meal.

I have no expanation, so can anyone help, is this the start of something or something transitory? I was and still am pretty scared by the experience, maybe one of the drugs? I have a long haul flight in a couple of days.

Did you have a look at the anxiety & depression forum? I really think that could be of some help to you.

It is posssible your subconscious mind found something familiar in the situation that reminded you of something from the past that made you uncomfortable.

I'm sure if you consider relaxation exs or even breathing exercises things will improve over time

Very possibly, my life has not been blameless, but I was most surprised that she should tell me something so personal on our first evening with her. Also my previous (lesser) panic attack came right out of the blue.

I worries me that when I get to Thailand I will have a lot of family problems to solve and how will I cope?

I will look at the anxiety and depession forum.

I drink a mug green tea every day, camomile tea before I go to bed and decafinated coffee (usually one) during the day. I don't sleep that well without my Laro-ze-pam, tried not taking it and I am still awake at 4 or 5am, so I end up taking one.
