Panic when I'm not working

[weaner]

Hello all
Just introducing myself - another sufferer of panic attacks. I tend to get them over work, but really I know it's more a control thing, on the list for therapy but want to move to France next year and don't really want to spend the rest of my days on anti-depressants. Been on and off them for 6 years now.

It's so frustrating because I can be logical with myself about the situation but I cannot stop the physical symptons - it's always first thing in the morning then fades as the day goes on but I fear going to bed as I know when I wake up I'll be scared again, then physically sick.

Not the best way to diet!

Anyway hi all

Just wanted to welcome you aboard.

There are quite a few people on here that suffer morning panics and I am sure you will soon read their posts as well.

You need to eat as soon as you get up and try to make the night time as relaxing as possible.

Hope you get some support on here

Your anxiety is the human representation of the pictures that you paint using your many vivid colours of revolving and reoccurring thoughts.

It is not easy to find happiness in ourselves, and it is not possible to find it elsewhere.

You are definitely not alone with the feeling of dread in the morning.

It sounds like you have many plans and I am sure that you will be able to do them all.

Hello and welcome,
I had the same problem and then started to panic before I went to sleep. I told myself that I wouldn't let the attacks run my life. I prayed that it go away and that I would feel the presence of Jesus with me. It worked. I woke up feeling great all the panic was away. I've learned to control my panic my taking charge of the matter and getting mad at the attacks. I would turn my focus on to something else and ignore them. I would start by rubbing something . It drew my mind away from the panic.
Good Luck
