What a good idea! let's see, mine are: -wind (This is my most recent and worst trigger at the moment. We had a rough winter with a lot of windstorms that caused terrible damage throughout BC and I am afraid that the tree in our yard will fall on the house and even a light breeze causes me to panic and escape the house until the wind calms down) -fear of doing something to hurt myself during a panic attack. During my last attack I started to think to myself that if I was dead I wouldn't have to feel like this anymore. I know that I would never do anything to hurt myself like that but I lose all rationality during an attack. -fear of having a panic attack. -slight fear of being alone. I feel a bit better about the wind when my husband is home. If he is at work and I start to panic we go to my mom's house. -fear of driving in heavy rain. I guess I am just afraid of hydroplaning and getting hurt or killed. I've never been in a car accident although I visualize about them all the time when I am driving. I've seen some horrific pictures of accidents as I used to work for a litigation lawyer who dealt with car accident victims. -fear of something happening to my children. My older daughter's are 3 and I still check on them at night to make sure they are breathing. My son is 4 months and I have woken him up before to make sure he is still alive. -I quite often panic when I am a passenger in a vehicle because I don't feel like I have any control over situations. -fear of not being in control. wow, this is long. Sorry!!

I can relate to a lot of these! lol! Mine are: * fear of being sick/vomiting * fear of taking medications in case they cause an allergic reactin or some other reaction * fear of being alone doing the above * fear of being around other people doing the above as well! *sigh* * fear of suffocating (not helped by asthmatic symptoms and recent chest infection) * panics out of the blue that cause a claustrophobic feeling and liek i've 'got to get out' especially at night - the walls are clsing in, etc. I absolutely HATE the last one! i find it helps when i am around caring but stable and happy people. I am therefore trying to get out more in the evenings and surrounding myself with people who help me stay in a calmer state

Oh yeah, whenever I'm taking a med (I really freaked over taking drugs) anyhow I'll let my husband know, "in case anyhting happens, I just took 2 motrin and 1 zyban". lol I really get this mainly if it is something I've never taken before. I've also had the poison thing too.

I was thinking today and wondering how many people have the same fears and how silly some of my own fears have been. So I started this thread to vent, laugh, and possibly reasure others who are fearful of the same things. These have been my top 5: Running out of money for the month Worried the panic will never end Losing control and going crazy Worried about hurting myself or my kids I've had numerous diseases/conditions: MS, Cancer(throat,stomach,legs,brain), Schizophrenia, ALS (my muscles twitched)
