Anxiety issue?
Posted , 4 users are following.
Hi everyone, I've posted on this site before about my anxiety symtoms. But I still dont feel I have all the answers. I finished all my scans and the doctor says I'm normal it was just a panic attack. But are panic attacks really able to put you in hospital for a week and cause a very high pulse rate. If anyone could provide some info. Thank you

Anxiety and panic attacks are physical. Sweating, raised pulse rates, dizziness, pains in the chest, visual disturbances, are just some of the symptoms. When we first meet it, we feel as though were about to die. It's truly awful. What do you think triggered this for you? You don't need to have recently just experienced something traumatic or stressful, it can just come on after an accumulation and finally your anxiety management tank has just overflowed. It's frustrating. Annoying. Totally out of your control but the earlier you address it the better chance you have of correcting it and not slipping into a longer term depression/repetitive anxiety issue. Do take this up further with your GP and don't be fobbed of with it was a panic attack, that's it. loads of people have them. Yes they do, but left to it's own devices, it can escalate and significantly impact your daily life. One other thing, watch out for avoidance behaviours, these are the things you may start to avoid as that activity or situation brings back those feelings of uncontrolled anxiety. You've picked up on it early so don't allow avoidance behaviours to compound the issue (which it will) early help, will avoid a long term problem. Best wishes, it is awful so sympathise greatly with you xxx

My anxiety I think started when I began a new job and also problem with my now ex wife. I cant work out what the triggers are and I still get anxiety issue. I purposely fight thru and avoid the avoidance technique where I can but its not that easy.
Panic Attacks are significant if they have a high frequency and are impinging on your life. Counselling maybe a good solution if you can get thru to one on nhs.

I can make myself calm by relaxing some times, but my mind is conditioned, the same as it was years ago when I would panic when I was driving, which I've been able to overcome. So, there is a solution to these panic attacks if you don't let them build, they can be controlled, they can be stopped because we weren't born with them, they are our minds creating this physical manifestation. Call them a chemical imbalance, or whatever, but don't let it control your lives.
