Hi folks,
My name is Rich and I am a sufferer of anxiety and panic attacks but I'm not a nervous person, lol. As ironic as that sounds I'm usually a cool, calm and collective sort of guy. My suffering comes at night in the form of severe sudden panic attacks in which on one particular night I thought I was dying and called 911 and spent 2 days in the hospital. Afterwhich the Doc said I was fine, no heart attack, in fact he said my heart was perfect. I came to this site because I had another episode night before last but I did'nt call 911 this time I rode it out and visited this site. Today I'm introducing myself to you all and for me its a big "GLAD I FOUND YOU" I hope that I, we, you can all help each other and somehow either cure it or live and deal with it so it don't destroy us. Hopefully most of you who visit this site and the host all feel the same cause I want to be free of this or learn as much about it so when an episode occurs I won't need to call 911. I'll try anything and everything anyone has to offer as to remedies to ease my panics. I surf the net alot looking for rememdies but this site appears the best bet to actually meet people suffering as I do and are searching for relief. My heart is with everyone here as I've had dear friends who have suffered and died from drug dependencies from this illness. I don't take meds, I take only vitamins and herbals. I hope I can nip this in the bud without conventional medications.
Again my name is Rich and I'm glad I found you.
Thanks a bunch
