Stace,

So sorry you're having to deal with this. Try and relax a bit..if nothing else take a nice hot bath. If you need to phone someone to help you out it is not a sign of weakness, sometimes we need the reassurance of someone who can understand what we are going through!

I hope to talk to you tomorrow and hear that you are feeling better.

Take Care of You,
Tina

Hello Stace

I do hope you are feeling better now - I'm thinking of you. Its true about the breathing, and the yawning; when I'm having a bad attack I also try stretching, coughing, running up and down stairs - I know it all sound so silly but when you are desperate you try everything. My Rescue Remedy really helps with the chest pain/burning too. I'm also learning to tell myself that the palps won't hurt me - its just a physical symptom of something Im anxious about - and the adrenaline is flooding out; its not something medical, there's nothing wrong with me. But it is very hard being rational when you are panicking, particularly when you are on your own. Calling a friend or relative is not being weak - when someone loves you and you need them, they don't care if its in the middle of the night. Don't forget, you don't have to be suicidal to call the Samaritans - they're open 24 hours a day and will always listen to you and your probs' they are anonymous and non judgemental and will help get you through a difficult panic attack.
