Hi guys.
My name is Joao and I'm from Portugal.
I've been sufering from panick attacks and anxiety since I was 19 years old , in the next month I'll make 23.
My fear started when I realize that a young and healthy people could die in seconds without no warnings , like football players and basketball players.
I've made 6 EKG and one echocardiogram, but all the tests were normal.
That doesn't mean that my anxiety was gone. She is still here.
During more than a year I couldn't get out from home, I were always scaried , reading about sudden death...and became to fear panic attacks , because I fear any relation between them and sudden cardiac death.
Last years Micklos Feher (a player from my football team) died during a game , and my concerned reach the highest top.
I don't practic any kind of sports because I'm afraid of death , I don't smoke , I don't drink , I take Xanax , Psipax , adt25 and inderal 10mg.
I'm diferent from any guy of my age , because of my disease.
Sometimes I feel a little depression , because I've lost 3 years in the college and I can't manage with pression and stress.
That's my life ( something like life).
I would like to hear your opinions and advices too.
Thank you for this forum , that I had found yesterday.
Bye
