Fear of heart attack and heart disease
I was DX with PD @ 28 Y/O. I am now 48. I have a morbid fear of dying from a heart attack. I was on benzos for almost 20 years but had to detox after they quit working. I thought I was going to really die after taking klonopin for nearly a decade and then hv it stop working. I have also taken xanax, valium, and ativan. I am currently taking lexapro but I think all AD's are virtually useless for severe PD. I would love to talk to anyone who have the same fears and concerns as I do. Do you take meds? What do you take? I have 24/7 constant chest/stomach pressure from inner tension. I try to meditate and exercise lightly but only get slight relief. I feel as tho sometimes my back is against the wall so to speak and that I will only get worse and then die. I live each day in fear. I sometimes wish I could have a portion of my brain that is causing me so much distress removed. This is how sick I am from all the suffering I hv endured over the years.
