**Panic Attacks** Anxioty... I fuckin have its bad tonight
 

Does any one get them???

I feel like I'm going to have a full blown heart attack.... I go through this once a month, I know its in my head but WTF can I do to make it chill????

I'm getting this shit once a year or so.
nothing you can do there , hope u wasn't alone when it's happened..

Valium is an excellent anti-axiety medication.

My bro used to get them a lot. He used to get carted off by the ambulance and shit. Thought he was having a heart attack. A change in lifestyle is how he got them to stop. A former penny stock guy, left that biz and got a job where he didn't rip people off.

Go to a doctor and ask him to put you on Propranolol HCL Slow Release 40 or 80 MG
depending on your weight.

It is made for blood pressure but they also use it for stage fright and the snipers in the military use it to shoot calmer.

If you exercise it will make it so you can run your ass off and your heart will
maybe go up to 110 or in my case 90 beats per minute.

All good ideas.......... Man, I have to do fucking somehing cause this shit is crazy!!

No natural cure all???

Stress is def an inducer!! But thats part of my life now!!! Maybe I should see a doc

Take a xanie and hit the sack.

The sack is what drives me crazy!! I can't sleep bro, I wake up every 1/2second in heart attack mode( its fucking crazy)

All alone man! Thats another thing that fucking sucks

I have a friend who got some serious attacks several days a mnth , he went to an specialist and didnt take any medicine for it at all , his advice was to eat more healthy and start to work out , everytime he gots thoose attacks , he went out for a jogging trip and after 4-6 mnths it was gone ! Natural is always best , last solution`s are medicine for sure ! and some also just accept it and let it go when they got it , learn to live with it or do something about it !

don't take any chemicals , see what viking1 said. :thumbsup

Celexa ....

Panic attacks are HARMLESS. That's the first thing to remember. What they are really are an anxiety attack blown up big time.

Yeah..the reason your heart is beating fast and everything is because for whatever reason, you got freaked out and the adrenaline starting pumping big time because your body is conditioned to the "fight or flight" syndrome that goes back to caveman days to protect you in case of danger. Of course in panic attacks, there's no DISCERNABLE thing threatening you, so there's nothing to fight, and where will you flee to from a non-existent entity?

I used to have them big time..and what I would do is hyper-ventilate. Actually took a couple of classes on this, and MOST people do just that when they have panic attacks..this makes you dizzy and also will make your legs feel wobbly..but there's a very real explanation for that. You are EXHALING all of your carbon dioxide and taking in very short shallow breathes instead of LONG deep breaths..and then taking long deep exhales.

So, for me it was all about my breathing exercises..learning not to do the old "gasping for air" thing basically and instead, just try to concentrate on taking a SLOW breath in and then count from ten to 1 backwards and EXHALE. This allows the cardon dioxide to equalize in your system and will also naturally calm you down.

Don't get hooked on pills..most people can handle anxiety attacks if they KNOW what is going on and really make a point of doing the things that medical experts tell you to do in calming yourself. Hope this helps.

Remember..deep slow breath in..deep slow breath out.

I Train daily, and lead a very health lifestyle.

I heard (this may be bullshit) that anxioty is just excess energy built up an it effects most people at night when their trying to relax......So maybe your jogging shit might work!!'

Good Post thanks man!!

learn to breath properly and stop the negative thinking. serioulsy breathing right helps a LOT, and talk to someone, a friend could help ya talk it all out and you will feel sooo much better.

The solution is a lot simpler than you think. Its actually so simple you're not going to believe it. When you feel anxiety coming on, or if you are actually in a full blown attack you have to tell yourself YOU ENJOY IT. You have to tell yourself it is a good feeling. Picture yourself when you were skiing or on a rollercoaster, or something that caused adrenaline excitement. It is the exact same feeling but you are interpreting it as a bad thing which causes the panic attack. I know it sounds crazy but it works and if you can do this you will never have another panic attack again. The last one I had was 15 years ago and I actually came up with this during an attack and it stopped immediately and that is the last one I've ever had. Since then if I start feeling anxious I just tell myself bring it on, this will be fun, picture myself on a rollercoaster and its goes away as fast as it came.

Thanks man, makes sense...Are you a Doctor?? I never go throug breathing attaks though its more like heart shit its carzy unexplainable! but I Know for a 100% Fact its anxioty and I know its harmless but it still scares the shit out of me!

I had them too. Am now rid of them.

Drugs are a short term fix, go for the Natural Way.

The best advice on this thread, and what cured me was KNOWING WHAT IS HAPPENING and staying calm.

Get your heart checked out by specialists - maybe two if you want two opinions, and then KNOW that your ticker is ok.

Once you have this knowledge, when you feel an attack coming, just slow breathe and tell yourself that your ticker is ok so stay calm. What helped me was distracting myself - like going to talk to someone so it wouldn't escalate or turning on the TV.

Don't keep a check on you pulse as yes your ticker will be ticking faster and harder and feeling that will only concern you more.

It took me 2 years to get over it - but if I had this advice - It would have been half that.

Hope it goes well for you.

:thumbsup

what about when it breaks you out of a hard ass sleep and jolts your whole fuckning body?(at 1:00am) its hard to mellow out then...But its worth a fucking try

Yeah I did that too. I had my heart checked 100x by several diff docs and its perfectly fine according to the "Experts" so I know its menatly induced on my part but its hard overcomming whatever the fuck this wack shit is!!!!!

No..I'm not a doctor..just someone (like many) who has had first hand experience with this and, like I said..took a couple of classes.

The reason you're heart is pounding is because your whole system is STIMULATED! You've got adrenaline pouring through you big time. Like someone else said if you were on a rollercoaster, your heart would be doing the same thing..but you're trying to SLEEP..so you're asking yourself..wtf is it doing this now? lol

Ain't a lot of rhyme or reason to panic attacks. Honestly, just lie down, and try the breathing exercises..turn on some music..something to help distract you and REALLY TRY to do SLOOOW breaths in and SLOOW breaths out.

You want anxiety, I'll give you anxiety...

Christ, you are annoying. Just fucking have a heart attack already and get over it - if you don't, then you just weren't fit enough to make the cut.

You might be suprised to hear that a large % of those that suffer from panic attacks have them while falling asleep or are awakened by them. You're NOT having a heart attack..it aint going to kill you. You've just gotten a little scare..remember that..and remember the breathing excercises.

Go fuck yourself asshole. Good god..there are a BILLION reasons to bitch about posts on this board..but this is NOT one of them!

I don't know, never had one in my sleep. I don't know how normal, if you want to call attacks normal, they are to occur during sleep. Could be there are different things tha cause them, but with me I know they would start with feeling anxious and then focusing on the fear thus creating a snowball effect.

Go fuck yourself man! I'm not trying to fuck around here!

Thank You!!

I know the feeling all too well, when I get them I start to shake and sweat like hell. Heart pounds like crazy. :(

have sex you'll feel better

if you can't get laid, then rub one out with a nice long j/o session

cumming cures all ills, it's a proven fact

Hey! I never ripped people off! :1orglaugh

A few things, before you resort to going on meds...

1) excericise
2) eliminate as much sugar as you can from your diet. this includes corn syrup and all the bullshit
3) RELAX. your heart is beating out of your chest right now cause of something that's in our DNA from caveman days..."flight or fight". see, with OR without knowing it, you're upset about something, and it got so bad your pancreas just BLASTED your blood stream with sugar. FLIGHT OR FIGHT. However, you might...or might NOT...know why. It's a HUGE freak out if you don't know why.

So...excerise. Stay away from sugar. And pinpoint in your life where your stress is coming from. It may take a professional to do this.

And finally, if you're in full blown attack, try to lay down, and breath, and flex, then relax, every muscle in your body. Also take FULL, LUNG FILLING breaths IN and OUT.

Trust me bro, you're gonna be ok.

I get them in movie theaters too...Alot, Is that fucking normal???

Ever heard of dreams? Remember how WEIRD and scary sometimes DREAMS can be? Could very well have been a dream that kicked off this whole thing.

And yeah..working yourself up will make it snowball..so it's time to unclench the fists and all the other muscles in your body, lay down, do some slow breathing and before you know it you will fall asleep.

My dillz is raw from trying that cure!

Have you ever considered it possible that it also could be low blood sugar? Hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) will have the same effect.

You can get them anywhere..hell..you just had one in your sleep! Doesn't that show you that it CAN happen anywhere? And at the same time, you can control them ANYWHERE.

Need to start taking relaxing walks

I Know I'll be alright I appreciate everyones input it really helps to talk(or write) about shit!!
