Hi I'm Debbie I'm newly diagnosed and use to have panic attacks! Are you on antidepressant! I went in Cymbalta after my only son and only child passed in Dec 6 2006! Then thought o was ok and stopped them and rend off them myself! About a year later I went to Nashville Tennassee with my sis and she told me get bak on cymbalta cuz ur having panac ATTACS! Breath in thru ur nos and out thru ur mouth for a minute, but slow cleansing breaths and see it it helps! Are u on an antidepressant! If not ask doc about Cymbalta it got 2 ingredients in it secretin in and forget other name, but it stopped after 2-4 weeks on Cymbalta! Go now cuz they take time to kick in! There were times wen afraid to leave house, or do laundry in my basement! Couldn't handle nothing! Good luck & GODSPEED!!! In

Hiya. Hope you're ok...try to reassure yourself that you are ok....nothing is wrong and nothing bad will happen. Im guessing You've felt this before and you know you have the strength to gt through it. I've felt like this on and off for around 10 years and i know how frustrating and scary it is and i get angry with myself when it happens. the last few days i decided to change my approach....to be kind to myself, reassure myself as i would with someone else. It seems to be helping. X
