Re: foggy feelings in head
Hi tracey,
I get that feeling too. Since reading up on symptoms I feel a lot calmer about it. Its strange because I know the panic is irrational, and can't always control it... but reading about symptoms here and the way they affect your body makes sense of it..

Our minds decide we are under threat and the body takes over by giving out a load of adrenaline which then causes lots more symptoms making us feel panicky. Just know that its all (what I call) "pretend", helps me tell my body thanks but no thanks I really don't need that adrenaline right now. I then put my mind to breathing or relaxation exercises, or listening to music and distracting myself in some other way. Sometimes taking myself off somewhere quiet helps too.
There lots of info in the nmp self-help section too.
Hope this helps.
