Hi my name is april and im new here to. I have real bad panic attacks. I just always feel so alone cause I have no family,and my friends really dont understand. So it's very hard tp handle. Ive had my panic for a very long time. It started in 96 when i got married. They put me on all kinds of meds. My husband was really mean to me. Well anyways I left him and the panic slowed down then there was not any. I thought I was over all of it till this year. Ive had alot go on in Jan.and Feb. I went under plastic surgery and after that it all started over,but this time was alot worse than before. I thought I was going crazy. I went to the doc. and for something fast he put me on ativan which I only take when I feel one coming on. I do not like to take meds they scare me. So today I start my first pill of paxil and im very scared. I think Im scared because what if it does not work. I do not want to live my life like this any more.
I also have lots of books that I read all the time. When I feel myself having panic I grab a book and read to myself out loud it helps me. I start going to a support group next week I think talking to people like me will help. Thanks Red it is always good to have someone to talk to.
.I had to stop taking the paxil. I would not eat on it and to me eatting is what I need to do so I want be weak. Maybe we can try something else. I do take ativan when I feel an attack come on. Last night was the worse for me in awhile. My friend died from cancer. He found out he had it 3 weeks ago and there was nothing they could do. He was only 33 not married or any kids. I feel that he did not get to live his life to the fullest. This time last year we were at my b'day party and everyone seemed so happy and having so much fun. Now look a year later and he is dead. I know I suffer from panic,but everyday I thank God for me to have one more day to live. Life is to short. I just hope he gives me many more days. Somehow someway I will fight this panic disorder.
Yes i have taken the test. I have to see a doctor at the department of psychiatry and behavioral neurobiology May the 6th. I just got home from the hospital yesterday. I had to end a pregnancy cause it was in my tube. I really dont know how much more I can take. I feel so weak. I dont really have anyone to talk to and I feel so alone and scared. My panic was doing okay untill this now it is worse. I have to stay strong but I dont know how much more I can take.
Thank you both for your support. I just fell really weak I cant eat. Im really scared. Im tring really hard to beat this,but it is hard to do. My panic is alot worse now. Have to go.
