I cant understand why panic can just strike out of the blue. I've been having quite a few good days lately. Yesterday I went out for a spin in the car as a passenger. It was not as If I was worried about anything in particular but BANG, it came on like a shot. I thought to myself right, just ignore it and it will pass. No such luck, I have been able to deal with panic attacks many a time, but not this one. Why are some more fierce than the others? It felt as if I had had an allergic reaction to something. My body felt weak and numb and I could'nt think straight. I though I was at deaths door :) After taking a Vallium (which Im trying so hard not to do) the feelings subsided and I started to think what could have brought such an attack on. I know this will probably sound stupid to you but I put it down to putting in a fresh set of contact lenses. When I went out yesterday, which I rarely do at the moment everything seemed so much clearer. I was just wondering whether maybe that was the cause. Too much stimuli?? I dont know.
