Hi Gemini,

What do you mean you can't feel the panic attacks?

it scares me to have a panic attack , i hate the feeling , so if i can avoid having one i do , thats why i dont go out

my doc is useless , yes i am on three different tabs , two at night to help me sleep , and one in the morning , floufloxatine , i think that is how you spell it , i also have a lady come to my house once a week , she is from the mental health institute , she gives me tasks to do , ie , walk round the block . I was doing good , but last week and this week i keep having a panic attack every time i go out

I rarely get panic attacks..I do get palpitations now and again..I'm on seroxat but I'm waiting to see mental health team as they aren't working any more. I don't go out much myself and when I do I have to really talk myself into it. I'm not sure how I deal with any of it to be honest hun.
