My name is Lauri and I have just joined this Panic Centre. I am currently experiencing panic attacks and anxiety. It started a few weeks ago now, and I most say I am not as bad as I was during the first week. I was seriously anxious and couldn't even bring myself to sit down because no matter what I did I did I couldn't calm down. It was awful, I had to take diazepam, just to be able to calm down for a bit.
I am now feeling a let better than that but the anxiety, the constant worrying and the panic attacks are still there. I have been through panic attacks before and managed to get through it so I am trying to stay positive. I currently have a silly anxiety that I won't be able to breath. It stemmed from my panic attacks because when I panic I feel like I can't breath and I'm just going to stop. My anxiety about it was then born. I have panic attacks in situations such as going to the mall, or someone's house, it could be anything. All this twinned with my anxiety is making me feel like I am going mad.
Most recently I find myself for some parts of the day focusing on my breathing, like it is no longer automatic and I have to do it myself, this also happened to me last time so I know it will wear off. This then makes me panic when I feel like I can't breath.
I would be grateful for your feedback, and to hear if anyone else feels this way. I am hoping to bet a lot of support from you all, anxiety hearing your stories.
