Anybody have problems with anxiety and panic attacks at home?!
Question: Anybody have problems with anxiety and panic attacks at home!?
I have pretty bad anxiety and panic attacks, even at home!. Night time and mornings are absolute terror for me!. Is anyone the same or similar!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
My attacks surround throwing up!. If I have the slightest pain in my stomach for a split second, or if I have too much spit in my mouth or too little spit in my mouth, or if it's lunch time and I'm not hungry at all!.!. it sends me into this terrible spiral - no matter where I am!.
It starts out with this fluttering feeling in my whole body, then I get very restless and I can't sit still!. Then I start to breathe heavily!. If I can't calm myself down at that point, I'll get worse fluttering and I'll start to shake all over, my legs are especially bad!. This can continue for what seems like forever and I can't help thinking that I need to go to the hospital!.
Usually the shaking and breathing start to make me feel dizzy at this point and then there's no natural return - I have to force myself to think that it's almost over!. It's just an episode and it's going to go away!. I'm not going to die!.!.!. and it will slowly subside!. Afterwards, I feel 100% fine (maybe a little fatigued if I was shaking very much)!.
The funny thing is that I'm almost 24 and I've thrown up 3 times in my entire life!.!.!. two of those times I was less than 5 years old!. It's worse for me at night and in the mornings because all the times I did throw up were at night so, in my mind, that's the most likely time I'll get sick!. I don't eat for hours before I go to bed for fear of that, so I usually go to bed hungry and wake up nausea which also sends me into panic!.
It's terrible and stupid lol but I just can't help it at all!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Negative emotions (like sadness, stress, anger, etc!.) causes your Serotonin production to be low; when your Serotonin level is low, you are more prone to getting Anxiety, Panic Attacks, Depression, etc!.
Medication like Antidepressants (SSRI - Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor) helps to boost Serotonin level!.
But there are natural ways to do it without medication!. There's this strange herb called "St John's Wort" - it is said to be more effective than Prozac!. No, it is not for mild depression only and ignore those sayings!. In fact, it does help anxiety and panic-attacks as St John's Wort works like prozac!. Other natural ways will be exercise, diet, more exposure to light, etc!.
The problem is that, even if your Serotonin is balanced!.!.!. you have that "learned behavior" in your mind!. You need to break that initial cycle to destroy that learned behavior - Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) does this!. A technique that you can use without CBT will be Distraction!.!.!. There are several other techniques to help cope them!
Ok, to use Distraction: Firstly, try to!.!.!.!.

ye man ur not the only one at all, mine happened 1 month ago when I was just about to sleep, and it was the worst feeling I have ever had in my life, its undescripable , and insane and terrible, and nobody understands unless they have had it!.
Go to dr!.!.
It will all pass though, it mostly passed for me, I had faith and read some stuff about these things which helped, I am not 100% recovered either, and I need more time/ help too, but it became much much better for me than it was the 4-5 days after my major panic attack!.
If u wanna talk or something I can give u my email too!.
Keep ur head high and dont give up
