Hi Sherrie,

I used to get this and it was a nightmare, the body goes through all sorts when in panic, i had cbt to combat this and thankfully it worked, mine got to the point where i'd even shake before a panic came, it was embarrasing.

I would try some relaxation cd's or techniques and try and get your mind to relax as much as possible, it may help you to not tense up too.

Thanks for that. I had CBT a while ago but this wasnt a problem then, do you think my GP would refer me back for more treatment? It did help last time.

I certainly can't see the harm in asking...

Do you only shake after you've had a panic attack?

Yes its only after the panic attack. it lasts a long time though, i think its the more i think about it the worse it is :/

Wrap up in a blanket and breath slow n pretend you are just cold, I find it helps me
