hi, my panic is back after over a year. i have had a few times and then recently after having my son which was treated. just lately i have been stressed, biting down on teeth, more tired then out of blue feeling panicky! i had a panic attack today like i did 4 years ago when they were bad!!!! i know what triggered me feeling bad it was the bird flu and press. i feel im not worrying as much about it but anxiety is worse. i had the feeling i was in a dream walking down street, felt a whoosh and like i was shutting down. i had this years ago, horrible! was that derealisation or something like that? thanks x

Hi April

So sorry to hear that you have had a panic attack. But as you say it is due to you being under more stress than usual. So it is just an unwelcome blip.

Take some time out to relax and not pay too much attention to the bird flu hype. I'm sure you will settle down again.:D

Take Care

Hi, glad this one passed.... A few weeks ago, I had my first PA in a LONG time, and thought it was all coming back. But - after a really rough night, it went away! I guess it was one of those nefarious blips...

Looks like you had one too. Luckily, it didn't last too long for you, either!

Great that you're laughing again. Without a doubt, that has to be the best medicine! Keep up the good work, and try not to worry about what you can't control (Though , believe me, I know ITS HARD!!!)

Keep smiling - it scares the PA monster!

April ,

As Rick found out, once you understand what is going on within yourself to bring on a panic, it makes it easier to downgrade it , accept it after its happened and move on.

We know from your posts recently that bird flu has been a big worry and as the media is not letting up on it, you're struggling to rationalize it so someting got the better of your rational mind and caught you out.
