Hi -
My name is Shadi and I suffer from anxiety and panic attacks. I had my first full blown panic attack a month ago. I almost passed out while driving home from school. I went to the emergency room thinking I was having a heart attack. I had palpatations the night before, and felt this was a vaild feeling. I've had an ECG, halter monitor and echo done on me. Everything has come out fine. Since though, I've had anxiety, many times leaving work early cause I cant help but cry.
After finding this website I feel much better. I know the symptoms I'm feeling aren't life threating. I think just knowing I'm not the only one makes me feel sane. There are so many great tools to help cope with panic and anxiety.
Sorry for the long post. :)
