I have suffered from Panic Attacks since I was 9 years old and I am now 35. After I got pregnant with my son, the attacks seemed to go away but now, 4 years later, I am getting the attacks back all over again? I work full time, go to school full time and I am a single Mom. I know that I lead a stressful life somewhat, but I have been on just about every medication that is out there for Panic and I know what to do during my attacks, but I just wish I did not have to get them to begin with. I am also noticing that I am getting them more in the same places ie: restaurants, car. I don't feel well on meds as they make me either jittery or spaced out, but I would love to find a way to reduce them again? I take Ativan when I need to, but I don't want to have to take something to feel normal all the time? Any suggestions would be appreciated. I get a massage every other week and I try to eat well. Does anyone else have insomnia along with their panic?
Thanks.
