Mild Attack

for 22 år siden 0 +0 / -0 4

To Debra: Since you wake up in the middle of the night with them, I don't know your age, but could it be related to hormonal changes? I know of some women who never had any anxiety or panic, but once they got into perimenopause, they began to experience it---just at certain times of the month, and usually in the middle of the night......

Hi, Diana. Welcome to the site and to the group. Thanks for your input. Deep, slow breathing has been found to help in panic situations. Despite the feeling among some of you that you will die, panic attacks are not fatal. It helps to know that and then take control by applying coping strategies. -- Anne-Marie, Site Administrator

Thanks for this. I've begun a diary, but the entries all seem the same, the waking up, the sweats, the agitation afterwards. I hope this keeping track helps somehow.

Hi, Debra, I hope you don't mind me sticking my nose in here..but I have kept a diary. After the time and date, it would help to put down what you were doing when it happened, exactly how you felt..pain, sweats, numbness, tingling, palpatations,dizzy or faint, feeling of chocking,nausea or abdominal distress, hot or cold flashes, feeling of "unreality" not being there, etc, fears of goin g crazy, fears of dying. These are all-important to a doctor. It is important to keep this log as to frequency. The number of times is significant. It may be helpful to keep a food diary and whatmeds and vitamins you are on. The doctor will take a family history, and want the logs, and anything else you'd care to write that you think will be helpful in diagnosing your problem A diagnosis of PANIC DISORDER WILL BE MADE AFTER ALL POSSIBLE MEDICAL CONDITIONS ARE RULED OUT. It should be noted, that the causes of panic disorder involve a combination of heredity, chemical imbalances in the brain, and personal stress. Also, sudden losses and/or major life changes can trigger the onset of these attacks. It is very hard for us to diagnose ourselves, as there are so many types of anxiety disorders. It is best to seek medical assistance. There are many things we can do for ourselves, the list is long. What works for one may not work for all. I know of one thing that helps everyone in the whole world..and that is relaxation. If you want to know more or do not have a method you can ask and we will discuss it. You must be willing to take a pro-active approach in your treatment. Ask the doctor.."What can I do for myself". Red

I wake up in the middle of the night with them, Victoria. It's so awful scary. I lead a fairly busy life and this really cuts into my work performance to wake up feeling stressed. Sara, what kind of things do you write in your diary? AnnMarie suggested that to me, but I wonder howo this will help, other than put a fix on the date and time?

Every time I have a panic attack, I feel like I am going to 'lose my mind' i.e. 'go insane' i.e 'die' - but the good news is - I am still here after dealig with panic attacks and all the side effects for 16 years - I am still sane, did not die and have not lost my mind. It is just a very 'dramatic' and terrifying ordeal, to say the least!! I understand. ;) Bye for now, Maria

Hi Victoria, I hear what your saying. For me, it feels like my head starts going out of control (I start to worry about things and images start running around my mind until I start to loose my breath). What I found helpfull was using a diary to write down what I was thinking and feeling when an attack happens. This seems to help a bit. I just use a booklet to jot things down. It helps.
