Okay, so let me start of by saying I don’t really get these anymore, since taking my new medication as instructed they have really really calmed down, I was on the edge before things got better, I saw no end to them, in the video you can see the effect it was having on me. I know I look a mess in this video and all that but it’s mainly been posted so that others can see they’re not alone and I know that when I was having them, I’d search YouTube for videos and used to find that they was never quite like how I got which worried me more into thinking maybe what I was experiencing wasn’t panic... it was.

Below is the link for the video, I apologise for the quality of the video as I mentioned it was never intended to be posted.

Hi Jack,
I've just seen your video and I'm very happy your new medication can help you to calm down. As for me, my panic attacks were completely different:
- my legs were shaking like crazy (no way to stop them).
- my heart was beating so fast that I could hear the sound
- no way to speak
- cold sweat from the forehead
Really hope you feel better now !!!

Hope you feel better now. I can relate to this on so many levels, my new worry is my throat and it's constantly feeling swollen and even choke when I swallow sometimes which is scary. It's sore alot and I'm guessing it's from all the poking and prodding I do. My vision is bad and when in an attack I get dry mouth, palpitations, rush of cold and warm all over my body. A few weeks ago one side of my face was numb for a few days. Hoping it doesn't last too long this time around. I can't take any benzo's as I was addicted for a while and my doctor won't try me on new medication so I have to just ride it out until it passes.
