Hi everyone.
I have terrible panic attacks. A couple months ago. I ended up in ER because I thought I was having a heart attack.
Last week I had a worse one, all my body was paralyzed, my hands were contracted. I rushed to the ER again.
I'm on medication for almost a month now, but I don't know what to do. I don't want to live like this my whole life.
I have an amazing boyfriend who understands me and supports me through this. But I can't accept the fact that my brain is doing this to me.
I know they are just panic atracks but once I get this first symptoms, tingling feeling in my hands or heart palpitations, I can't stop. I have seizures and once they're over they all seem so unreal as if it was a dream.
This panic disorder is consuming me and ruining my life. I don't have a specific trigger. My psychiatrist thinks it's a reflection of my whole life, what I've been through. And I never talk to anyone about my issues. I try to solve them on my own because that's what I had to do my whole life.
I have these attacks out of nowhere and like I said, I can't stop until I get to the ER. It's either heart attack or stroke.
Please tell me what to do if you experience the same. I don't want to live like this my whole life. My doctor thinks since I'm aware these are only panic attacks, I'm strong enough to manage them but I can't.
