SMOKING AND PANIC ATTACKS
In FReaK's introduction posy he mentioned that anxiety attacks could be triggered by something that you are subconsciously not happy with in your life.
In my case I have been wanting but not trying to give up smoking for some time. I keep moving the goal posts. After my firts panic attack in early July and the health scare it caused me, I promised to give up after returning from holiday in early september. On return from holiday I didn't stop but cut down - during my holiday I had no panic attacks
and no symptoms and felt great.
2 days after returning from holiday my anxiety symptoms started and gradually got worse leading to really bad attacks this weekend.
I am consciously aware that I should give up for so many reasons
health, heart etc. But finding it difficult whilst being stressed.
But subconsciously perhaps its because I haven't given up that
I'm unhappy inside and in panic mode. Its a vicial circle.
What do you think. Has anyone similar experience.
