Praying for you that you can find a way to stop them. My mother used to have them and as a kid, it was scary as she would start crying and sometimes screaming. I don't know if this would help or not but I will pass it along. My mom & I had talked about it years later and she said her psychiatrist told her that if she could just let it happen, submit to it and not fight it as it came on, it would take away the power of the attack and they would stop. She told me she had to get to the mindset that "if it was going to kill her so be it" and the attacks stopped sometime after. She said they started getting farther apart and less severe and finally stopped. Again praying you can find a way to get them to stop.
Hey. Thank you so much for that information. I feel about the same way.
I try very hard not to fight them.
I feel part of my part of my attack is also a spiritual attack. I'm a Christian.
I've gone as long as a year and not had one. And then they abruptly start again. It feels like I'm being pulled out of my body. I'm trying to fight it. It is impossible for me to stop them once they start. I scream at the top of my lungs.
I know I've destroyed a couple of my vocal cords. I call on Jesus to help me. And within 3 seconds of calling on his name they stop. Thank you for all of your caring.
yes I had them for a few years I think they go hand to hand with depression.I could feel them coming on,but it has no rhyme or reason and if you have had it once during an activity,you never want to do that activity again which it makes it hard to keep your activities and social life up,and it is very random for everyone.when I left work it left,i think stress and pressure didn't help it.it is different for everyone and more common than you think.I went to talk therapy for a while I didn't think it was helping ME,talk to your dr. they want to help you,it wasn't until i got the right meds that I was free!if you have had one family member that had it guess what,odds go up.good luck there is a way out of this terrifying fear
I take loritab at night and cymbalta during the day,that has been MY magic potion,now cymbalta has really been my magical med,I stopped crying daily,and are living a panic free life.bunches of worry used to bring it on ,and silly as it sounds it was very difficult for me to drive over certain parts of the road but I had to get to work,so i pushed through it.But not 1 issue now
yes i agree,church here in alabama has started meeting again but you must make a reservation and can't go every week so others have a chance,you must wear a mask and distance 6 ft apart. our minister tested positive before church reopened.ok now so this mystery disease you never know.......uurrgghhhh!
I take klonopin for mine. Mine feel like I can't breathe. The world spins and its like I leave my body and at the same time I am trapped. My psychiatrist said they were panic attacks and they happen randomly.
My last panic attack was on the drive back from Vegas. So Memorial day thereabouts. I screamed and cried and it felt inside very violent to my body. It was definitely brought on by stress. Of course I am out of a lot of my meds. I have refills waiting for me to pick up at the store but my husband is waiting to get them til he is home Saturday.
Stress will for sure bring on an attack. With MS we have to be super careful cuz it will also bring on a relapse so be careful.
My daughter in law gets panic attacks. She has a therapy dog now that seems to know when an attack is coming on and will calm her down or distract her from whatever caused the attack to begin with. She is also bi-polor and the dog helps her keep an even keel. Have you looked into whether or not a therapy animal might help you?
