Gina, Are you feeling better? I was concerned when I read your post. I hope the numbness and nausea have subsided. Did you mention one time you take Xanax? I thought you did I could be wrong. I know Xanax wears off very quickly, I took it for about 2 weeks one time and did not like it, it wore off way too quick and the anxiety would come back again. Klonopin lasts longer, the one of found the most helpful was Lorazapam {ativan} it calmed me without making me a zombie and it lasts longer than Xanax. Did the breathing help? I hope so. I am praying for you. I did not start the Paxil yet, I had a pretty good day, a little shaky this afternoon, but worked through it and did NOT take a Klonopin. Get some rest and I know tomm will be better. God bless, Debbie.
Hi Gina,
Hope you are feeling a little better now. You have received some excellent advice from your fellow members. You can get through these feelings. Try to use your coping mechanisms for what helps you to relax the most. Be sure to follow up with your doctor regarding how you are feeling.
Please let us know how you are doing,
Casey

Gina,
Hi sweetie, Im sorry you feel so down. Are you seeing a psychologist or a doctor?
If youre all alone right now and feeling really scared and depressed, its always easier when someone is with you. SO call someone over, or spend the night at their place.
I was a total mess this weekend. I hadnt slept in days and I was eating a banana a day b/c my tummy was so tense. Saturday I ended up in the e.r. So i know how youre feeling now but it will pass even if you dont feel like it will right now.
Meanwhile, get all the help you need. See a psychologist who knows C.B.T., try some meditative music, maybe try some herbal supplements or medications (even though many people are against them). Whatever works best for you!
Im also looking for a psychologist and im seeing my psychiatrist in May who will prescribe some meds for me.
Let me know how you feel
xoxo, Bianca
First, relax. You will be fine. You don't need to commit yourself. This is just a small setback. As long as your blood pressure was ok, I am sure the tingling is fine. MAybe you were sitting in one spot too long? I know it sucks to be scared. I wish you were not but I know you will feel better soon. It is easy to get caught up in the moment of feeling bad. You will see things differently later. And you just learned the breathing technique. Its like learning something new, you have to practice and keep up with it. I know it is hard to ignore your symptoms when you are panicking but I think the tingling is harmless. Bring it up to your doc, give him a call tommorow. Try to take a hot bath, watch your favorite movie, call a friend. I hope you are doing better! You are in my prayers!
hi everyone,i had a horrible day.it all started this morning throwing up.then i went my new doctor tried to learn some breathing exercises.then forced myself to work and had a very bad panic attack!these were my symptoms my leg felt numb and my fingertips also felt numb.that was enough to send me off the deep end crying endlessly.i have checked my blood pressure 4 times today at the local drug store and it is normal.i was seriously ready to goto the er.i am trying everything possible to get better and nothing is working.i feel hopeless.i am back to thinking about commiting myself.i cant keep living my life like this.i am still questioning the numbness i had earlier do you guys think it is from stress?please anyone advice and support is needed.
