I had a minor panic attack...

15 years ago 0 +0 / -0 477

Dazed Mommy, I'm sorry you had a bad day but I'm glad you are better!

I've had the choking feeling when my panic attacks came back this year. It was really scary and gross because I couldn't tell if I was really eating or not. Now they have gone away... but I still have other symptoms, and so I always carry a bottle of water with me.

Welcome, Freshstart! Thanks for sharing your experiences.

I always carry water with me everywhere nowadays. I tend to get a dry mouth when I'm anxious. I also keep a protein bar or snack bar handy because I seem to be very sensitive to blood-sugar dips recently.

thanks for the tips, I will try keeping a bottle of water close when eating.

Hello there freshstart and welcome . You come to the right place . Koneko and me have been having trouble eating for awhile now but have finally began to get much better at it . That was a good tip DM gave you with the water i used to do that .

Its a case of trial and error for me , when i cant eat well i rty and eat things like bananas , yogurts and anything thats basically soft .

Things are easing now so there hope believe me .

Take care CD

Hi freshstart...

I completely understand where you are coming from.. they are terrifying but they do get better. There are a few conversations going on that could be of interest to you...

This being one of them... It's about what pregnancy does and how it affects your anxiety. With both my babies it got quite bad.

The swallowing thing is terrible and I have only had it a few times but it can be scary. A few people on here are dealing with that right now and may have some tips for you. Everyone is so great and supportive.

I did find if I keep a bottle of water handy when I feel like that and taking drinks makes me realize that I'm ok..and that my tongue does work..lol.. and then I can start to relax again.

This will get better freshstart...just be patient with yourself. You're not alone in this...and you'll find some wonderful resources through this site.

Take care...and check out the link.

Hi, this is my first post. I started having panic attacks about 3 months ago, when my son was 3 months old. the first one scared the hell out of me, I thought I was dying. I felt like my throat was closing off and I couldn't get a deep breath. things are much better now, but daily i have trouble swallowing my food, I feel like I'm going to choke. It mostly happens when I start thinking about it, but I find it really hard not to think about it. glad I found this site, hopefully things will get better
