Hello everyone,
I've had panic attacks and anxiety, on and off, for about the past 12 years now.
For the past 18 months, I've generally been feeling good, then bang on Saturday I had two big panics. (Trigger was probably returning to the place where I had big panic two years ago).
This time it feels even more distressing than the last time - one of the panics on Saturday was onboard an aircraft, about a minute before takeoff; so I had nowhere to run and hide, just had to have my panic in my seat in front of everyone.
Since then had more panic attacks each day. I'm at work now, but even frightened to leave my desk, as just getting up and walking will make me feel short of breath and dizziness.
I wish these feelings would go away.
Darren.
