From: lorena joyce on 10 May 2008 05:30 Panic attacks are frightening, there's definitely no denying that, and once you've experienced one panic attack the imprint on your brain is so bad that even just the thought of having another can disable you and keep you house bound. I had my first panic attack on my fortieth birthday while driving a bus. The ambulance crew and everybody else including me thought it was a heart attack, until the diagnosis came back after two days of observation in hospital. "Panic attack, what's one of those." I said. The doctor tried explaining about hyperventilation but I didn't really take any of it in, all I was bothered about was how come I still felt funny and weird. I went on feeling anxious suffering from anxiety, phobias and panic attacks for the next two and a half years. Over those two and a half years, despite being an emotional nervous wreck having panic attacks daily and unintentionally turning into an alcoholic. I also had my fair share of trying different prescribed drugs out, with a few months at behavior therapy classes for deep breathing exercises and one on one psychotherapy.... http://groups.google.com/group/panicpml

I'm attending a stress management group and I never even thought I was stressed until they started describing the symptoms.
