    total cure?

    Has anyone ever heard a total success story from someone battling with panic attacks? My uncle (30) suffered from them when he was my age (19), it was so bad he couldn't leave his room but now he can go on holidays etc. The only thing is he changes his job a lot and I think he may still suffer only not just as bad. Apart from that he seems a lot better, anyone else heard any similar stories?

    Hi Rois

    Surely we're able to cope better , I don't believe in a cure, but I do believe in feeling much better.

    I don't think it is possible to recover 100% but I do think 99% is possible. As people who have suffered from anxiety, we will always have the 'What if??' in the back of our minds but I think we can learn how to control this..Just my opinion..

    hi rois,
    i don't think it's possible to be 'cured' 100 percent but i think you can learn to deal with it in all sorts of different situations so that it doesn't affect your life too badly.

    Hi Rois,

    No I don't think its possible to be 100% cured either. I think once you have experienced panic anxiety etc sometimes as Sarah said there always seem to be those "What If's" you do learn to cope though and in time the things that may have seemed really difficult and unthinkable become easier to achieve.

    As a person I am over sensitive and a born worrier so that doesn't help as anxiety/panic seem to feed of negative thoughts. So I believe POSITIVE thinking and acceptance helps enormously.

    Also remember we all need some kind od anxious feelings as it what protects us from danger. Ironical though it may seem!!

    Take care,

    Love PIP'S XX

    100% cure. That would be nice, I guess one step in a positive direction, is one step nearer to recovery?
