I have heard everything from you are born with it to because you have sinned too much to its from processed foods to its from the hormones in the milk! Why is it so common! If you are going to tell me that it isnt a real disorder, I will beg to differ with you! If you have some helpful info, then I would be greatly appreciative. Has anyone here suffered extreme dibilitating panic, been on meds, and successing found a way to come off? I’m sorry there are sooo many unanswered Q’s here.
Nicole,
Yes I am suffering from panic attacks. Its been close to 4 yrs since the first debilitating one, and they still sneak up quite often. I take 12.5 mg Paxil daily, and am considering Xanax for those debilitating attacks. I believe that my attacks surfaced due to the amount of stress I was under. I was 20 y/o, married w/ a stepson, and just gave birth to my second son, (3 sons total- at that time). My baby was very ill, and was deaf. We were getting ready for him to have cranial surgery. I was very weak from a traumatic birth,(he was born in the car during a thunder storm), and was having to travel 300 miles to the childrens hospital frequently. I lost my pregnancy weight in about 3 weeks. Then the attacks hit me hard. It was a nightmare! I deal with them very well now, but the trembling is unbearable! Thank all of you who have taken the time to leave an answer.

My sister is 23 and gets horrible migraines about 1-2 per wk. She’s lost 2 jobs already because of it and she’s afraid she’ll get fired again from her current position. Her doctor keeps giving her meds but they don’t cure the problem. She has an anxiety disorder and she started getting migraines after her heart surgery last Feb. Any advice?

I have been having anxiety attacks lately due to the stress from school. I am studying engineering, and there is really no way I can lighten the work load (the cause of the stress). I really have no time to meditate or exercise because I am always doing homework. Is there any other quick way (besides meds) to help deal with this?
