Hi! I'm new here and I don't know exactly where to begin... I suffered my first panick attack 6 years ago after I had smoked a cigarrette (I have PCOS and it sometimes gives me symptoms similar of those of anxiety during days I have my period). The anxiety of suffering another attack trapped me hard and I even had agoraphobia for a while. I went to see a specialist and he put me on medication. It really worked and I have been with the same medication since. But my problem is that when I feel better and I quit taking pills, after several months the same symtomps remit. I begin worrying much about me, myself, my health, my body thinkin that the littlest "strange" sensation means something severe (like a stroke or brain injury) and I panick! My doc says it's just anxiety and that the symptoms I feel are derived from muscular tension (coz I suffer from periodical tension headache that it really freaks me out sometimes and I don't know how to control these emotions and feelings...). I am even worried about fainting in public or feeling sick and not having assistance nearby, when I have a hangover and I feel sick I also worry about fainting or smoking a cigarrette and producing me another panick attack!
