first full blown panic attack in MONTHS!

I am just all sorts of messed up lately!

Just had/still going thru a panic attack.
First in MONTHS.

It all started when I bent down to pick something up and behind my ears starting hurting and my collar bones, mainly left side.
I'm sick or have a sinus infection.

So instead of contributing it to that,
I of course completely panic!
Now my ribs are sore, BP is 124/80, HR 100..

I can tell you,
I DID NOT MISS THESE!!

I've gone SO long without one!!!

I'm still feeling off, but I'm doing some breathing exercises and listening to the people outside and reading a book.

I also have those days where it hits out of the blue. Usually for me it's an intense dizziness that takes hold which in turn freaks me out. The period of "freaking out" seems to last a lot less these days, so I just try to hunker down and get through it.

Like Larry said, be strong and realize that these episodes may very well be your brain coming to terms with / processing these feelings and getting stronger.

Mel, how are you today?
Just so you will know you are in all our Prayers and thoughts, Peace

Don't give in your mind is stronger!! You can do it, don't concentrate on the panic take a bath and meditate than go for a run or reversed however! Anxiety is your friend because in the end it makes you stronger!
