Hello all

I really dont know how to start but just wanted to introduce myself . I started getting panic attacks in may 2006 . Too me months to 'get over them' . Or so i thought about a month ago bam they are back . I am determined to overcome this , i really dont want to feel like this forever . I started the programme just over a week ago and i must say it likes a breathe of fresh air . You really dont feel so alone . I know its short and sweet but all i can manage for now .

Panic attack, hands tingling

Hello Madara . I know where you are coming from . I feel exatly what you have said that something must be wrong etc . Even though you KNOW its the anxiety you still doubt it . Im at the moment constantly 'fuzzing' in my hands , espically arms , legs face and lips . I hate it . It gets to the point where i cant even feel things properly because my hands are that numb . This happened to me two years ago and it went away , so deep down i know it can again . Hope you are feeling better

Anyone practice tai chi?

This would have been a question that i would have asked as well . I have heard throughthe grapevine that our local school has a class starting soon . If this is true then i would like to give it a try . Will have to convince my Hubby to go as well though !! If i do will keep you posted :)

Good for someone else but not for yourself

Hello Maggie . Just wanted to say i completely agree with you and do exatly the same !! It all comes to easy to help someone else and i have many times because you know and understand what the person is going through . But like you said when its yourself then whoahhh mind goes into overdrive and you just dont think rationally . And yes one of the worse things is to go onto the internet . I could slap myself for doing it sometimes and feel so much worse after . So now dont . Im currently playing a computer game one of my children showed me called virtual villagers . Its great !!! Not the usual game i play where i find myself getting wound up trying to complete a level ( not that im competative lol) . This game you have to solve problems and build up your village . Now im no brain box so if i can do it then anyone can . I am finding it very soothing indeed and cant reccommend it enough . ( just remember to pause it when you turn your PC off , i lost my tribe that way wahhhhhhh)
