    Yes!!!! It's the thing that alarms me the most it was my birthday last week and I felt great I had my family over for cake etc and I had a panic attack in the middle off it....I wasn't overwhelmed by my family here as they all live beside me so I see them all every day we just don't eat cake everyday and I really didn't have a panic attack over that lol.....but I can be sitting as calm as I can be on the sofa r doing something I love and bang off I go feeling the awful symptoms 😰

    thanks guys i just never understand that why when we are all feeling good why it can just come up like that!!! i did put a post on just now about having a bath earlier and it was too hot really but i like it hot so when i got out i felt a bit out of sorts sick  headachy bit lightheaded so dont know whether i was worrying about that and then because i was thinking about that its brought this on, i have literally just walked to the shop and back with my daughter and was ok though so all very strange, i am also yawning my head off so maybe tired too from  ahectic weekend and a couple bottles of wine on saturday a boring slow day at work today does all the different thing like that effect us/our bodies etc etc x

      i am on citralopram only 10mg its brilliant and has made a massive difference to me but my dr did say i may need to up it slightly as you can have up to 40mg for anxiety but i am trying not to go down that road if i can help it, i really think i am just having an off day xx

      i had beta blockers before the citrapram as i was trying to deal with the anxiety myself but it was the racing heart and symptons that freaked me out more so we tried that but i still needed extra help when the citralopram lkicked in i stopped the beta blockers as i knew myself i didnt really need them x

    Hello kezzieuk

    Having had a lifetime problem with nervousness/anxiety, I have come to the conclusion that some of us are born with these anxiety genes.  However it takes time for us to become aware of what it is all aboout.  As I have posted before, I have had to override severe/ bad patches, and in spite of it all I have achieved/done many things which I never thought would be in my grasp,  I worked until I was  67, raised four children (partly as a single mother) and they have all turned out magnificently.....but I am aware that they all have a streak of this nervousness/anxiety somewhere in their bodies.  They are all high achievers, but even so I still see signs of insecurity.  Strange!  I also seem to give off signs of being very confident/clever, but underneath I am often feeling like the proverbial swan "elegant, but paddling frantically below the surface."  I could almost write a book, so take heart.  Keep positive, take meds if necessary, and try to relax your body.  Inner tension brings on anxiety/panic attacks.  I am obviously not a doctor and can only write of my own opinions, but there is so much more help available today, whereas years ago sufferers were mostly told to "pull themselves together".

    Good luck, and keep posting of your progress.

    so take heart,

      I get this all the time and Iv never understood the reasons for it. I can be watching tv and just all of a sudden I get that out of body feeling. Also happens when I sit in lectures at uni or when I'm at work. I just try to keep my mind of it but it can be so horrible and annoying not knowing why or when it's going to happen.
