Anxiety or drama queen!?

Hi Elaine

no your not been dramatic, I have had the worst panic attack, anxiety attacks and it all started nearly two years ago, my periods were normal at the time, just felt really weird on myself, now two years later having a lot more periods and unfortunately still having panic attacks, but they only come on because of me panicking that I have something serious with a lot of these symptoms, this forum as helped me lots and there is a lot of good advice. I have been taking batch flower drops for anxiety and panic attacks for the last 6 weeks and I have to say, I have had not had one since, it's acompletely natural remedy that doesn't interfere with other meds. I was having massive panic attacks daily up until I got these. 

Hope you feel better soon, and remember a lot of these feelings are peri / menopause xx

elaine, these are normal you are not dramatic, i empathise.  what i do is accept these horrible feelings and try and sort of float through them , meaning tell yourself its ok it will pass and i will just float on by.  good luck

Don't think you are being dramatic,Hun, I have been having major anxiety and panic attacks, mostly at night. Really strange feelings like never before. I'm sure it's a part of meno or peri, we will get through it together.Take Care.

No you're not being dramatic Elaine at all. I've said a few times that the name 'panic attack' doesn't do justice for what we go through while having one. They are horrendous. I've said it a few times but one thing that makes mine soar is caffeine, and literally I mean one cup of tea, (coffee's far worse), triggers it off for me so be aware if you drink tea/coffee that it may make the attacks feel worse. As hard as it is, try not to get yourself worked up as this will only add to your fear and panic. I try breathing exercises to regulate my system. It takes time but it does help eventually. Good luck x.
