I was on a date at the movies...

I was fine for the first half an hour until I had a little trouble breathing with the sweaty palms and all.

Then started with the palpitations and then I kept walking back and forward and slowly breathe.

Good thing I already saw the movie or other wise I would of been mad..let alone upset my date.

This has also happened a number of times due to me have GERD.

But whenever I am home (even with someone else) or just at a friend's house, im fine.

This is most likely from anixety right?


Please Help ME...

Like Kitt said, read some posts here and you will find so many things to help you out. Would you believe I sat here and went through every past post that I had access to, and I found a lot of wise words that helped me out!!!

Good Luck to you, and when you to go to the doctor for this, let us know what happens!!!

Hi Dave,

I am not sure if anyone else here on this forum has checked this out, but it has worked for my panic attacks.  I no longer have those, just generalized anxiety now. 

It's called the One Move Technique.  It's in a book called Panic Away.  W/O infringing on copyrighted material, it basically tells you to tell anxiety to give it everything it's got and come at you 100%. 

It's worked for my panic attacks.  Maybe I should try it on my generalized?  hmmmmm there's a thought.
