Hello everyone, I was looking at my craft forum (I make greetings cards) and suddenly thought that there was no one on there who really knew about panic attacks (there is a chatty part to the forum).
Looking through the internet I have stumbled upon you!
All I can say is :yesyes:
There is some great info on this site! I thought I knew all about panic disorder after all 16 years ago I suffered big time from it. I did the whole thing, ending in casualty etc..
Well on Christmas Eve - lo and behold I had a panic attack, I couldn't believe it - I'd done therapy, medication and had been fine!
But they are back and this is how I feel :wacko:
I have been back to the doctor who has given me some medication, but I'm back to rushing to the loo at work trying to breathe. I do hope medication has moved on since it happened.
My trigger has always been work stress, however, I took a less stressful job recently after 5 years of utter stress...maybe those years are back to haunt me. :ohmy:
Anyway I am looking forward to meeting everyone and reading all about how others are, 16 years ago I had no internet so I felt so alone, it's good to find a place like this.
