First time Anxiety Attacks are the worst.

I've had this anxiety attack for about five days now. At first, I thought I was having a heart attack (which is apparently what most first-time sufferers believe to be having, since the symptoms for a heart attack and an anxiety attack are very, very similar.)

Needless to say, I was pretty frightened about all of this. (And I actually didn't smoke for an entire day which is amazing for me...considering that I always at least have six a day.) Enough to go to the Hospital only to find out, to my discouragement, that they could find nothing wrong with me at all.

These horrible symptoms continued to press me on enough to go to the doctor right the next day, who told me the same damn thing.

After that, I didn't know what the hell to do. I went online and read up a bit more on heart attacks, and found out that heart attack symptoms only last a few hours at the most. ..At this point, my symptoms had already been going on for four consecutive days..so I calmed down a lot.

It's still frightening though. This isn't a fun thing to experience at all. Throughout this miserable short span of time, I've realized how much I take life for granted.

Too lazy to write any more. I hope i'll end up okay.

I had several anxiety attacks in August, September and October. The first one was indeed a scary experience. They did echocardiagrams and electrocardiograms and found nothing each time; my heart is normal and not in any danger. They have me on a medicine called Metoprolol, which slows the heart, relieves anxiety and lowers your blood pressure. I haven't had an attack since. You might want to ask your doctor about Metoprolol. I'm using it more to relieve high blood pressure, though.

I don't smoke or drink and I have been on a diet that has lowered my weight from 215 to 180 over the last 12 months. I don't know if my weight loss triggered something or not.

Panic attacks are not physically harmful but you should see a psychologist about them.

I get them all the time. It won't kill you or anything although at times you do feel like your having a heart attack.

Xanax may help too.
I have general anxiety disorder so I worry about everything, they don't hurt you physicially although they can stress you enough to where it might. Sometimes I feel as though I am having a heart attack, my heart will skip beats or beat 5 times very very fast, not fun.

Whatever happened to Gary Cooper, the strong silent type? That was an American. He wasn't in touch with his feelings. He just did what he had to do.

See what they didn't know was once they got Gary Cooper in touch with his feelings was that they wouldn't be able to shut him up and then it's dysfunction this and dysfunction that and dysfunction va fangul!
too lazy to write anymore? unless you have 15 pound weights attached to your arms, maybe that or wii fit plus would be a good place to start...
