Unhappy When?

When will I ever learn that having a Panic Attack or being Anxious isn't going to hurt me and that I won't die?Ive had PD-Agoraphobia for nearly 8 years and still haven't learned Im OK,it wont hurt me or kill me.

This is getting so tiring,exhausting and worrisome..After 8 years of the same old thing you would think I would know its nothing that will harm me..Afterall Im still alive,breathing,I haven't passed out and all that jazz..

What a big pain in the tail pipe..

Unhappy

I sooo know what you're saying. I'm 21, I take medicines to take care of the problem only I'm finding myself shorter and shorter when it comes to my medicine. They're going faster than prescribed basically...I've found no doctor to really help me. I live in an area where mental disorder isn't even recognized. I'm becoming increasingly deppressed. I was just curious as to what kind of medicine plan your doctor may be on, I don't think mine is working. I currently am supposed to take Clonazepam 1mg 2 x a day. Neurontin 800mg 4 x a day. Personally I feel like my life is a living hell...like you said a real pain in the tail pipe.

I'm sorry about your panic attacks.....I found that going somewhere public will diminish the fear of death (at least) when I having the attack. It's no ball game getting through it, but once it's over you can return to where you feel comfortable. I know that may not be possible....I haven't left my house truly in 2 years. I wonder if depression/anxiety is really an issue that's understood by doctors at all ! I think it's relativly new and we've become guinea pigs in a way....or at least I have. What with the different medications/chemicals that they continually have me digest !...........hmmm, but I digress. Try weird things when you are having a panic attack, I found out that the oddest things will comfort me. A stuffed toy, the smell of mint or cherry chapstick, standing on my head (lol), crossing my eyes, cracking jokes in spite of what our minds tell us at the time. For instance : You are having an attack, you feel like you're going to die....say " I'm not going down without a fight !" aloud, and say it with a funny accent. You might make yourself giggle...you might not. ..... pain in the tailpipe.
