Mornings set the tone for the whole day

Actually my anxiety has been completely gone for a week or two (have no idea why) but this morning I awoke with a panic attack and that set me off for the whole day! I was so shaky I had to take a Xanax mid day, which I don't usually have to do. I just can't understand why anxiety can hit you out of the blue then eventually go away for no apparent reason. It just makes one feel so out if control of the whole thing! Sometimes when I've gone they some type of stressful situation I can understand why anxiety would kick in but other times there's no rhyme or reason. Years ago my therapist said I had what's called "free floating" anxiety so I guess that's what it is but its scares me not knowing when it's going to hit. When I feel real good (not that often, I can't imagine what anxiety is like but when I have it, I can't imagine feeling normal. What a vicious cycle! Anyone have the same issues with their anxiety? Man, I HATE that shakey, panicky feeling!

Thanks sad girl....and it DOES get better...even if it's for a day, weeks, months and even years (as it did for me for 12+ years). It's just that you never know when it's gonna strike again. Ugh
