Panic attacks

I can see everything all at once with my eyes. I can see what’s been going on in the back of my mind at once too:

My physical movements, social interactions, and internal thoughts are not under my control. Of the things in my life that I think I can control, I rely on awareness and blame. No matter how many situations I think can change through awareness, maturity, experiences, or whatever, the changes will always be made for reasons I can’t quite trace. For the problems I feel like I have identified most accurately, there still aren’t definite answers. I am given reason to believe that death is not imminent through ideals of truth, which I can learn from and use to fix circumstances to be how I chose them to be. But in this moment all I can tell myself is that I cannot change my ultimate fate.

I am going to die. Gonna die, gonna die, gonna die...

    I have panic attacks also so I know they are not fun. Even though they make me feel horrible they also make me feel awake. I was thinking maybe it’s away of letting us know we are aware of something that we don’t really understand yet. Something rooted deep inside of us that we have lost touch with. Maybe you truly aren’t in control at all.

    Panic attacks suck as a suffer I can tell you staying locked up in the house makes you feel better but when you do HAVE to go out it gets wrose depending on where you live the programs will very but there is help is easy to sit over here on my house to tell you how to chang it it's call opp action if you don't want to go out do start small I go to a beach that no one goes to read a book in the park go to the movies in the morning with the right meds and a good um head dr you will be on your way take your time I still have to take someone I'm close to with me everywhere ant don't be too hard on yourself

    I hate panic attacks. I had them during basketball and i would think i was going to die. honestly sometimes you gotta find something that helps you cope.

    You are worrying too much. If you worry about worrying, that can trigger panic attacks. No one can control it. Life is a journey, stop looking at the map and the big black X destination that is death and realize that might not be the end. You can wonder about it sometimes, but your better off not to. When you're gone, that's probably it. I think of this : No more bills, not more check out lanes, traffic, keeping up appearances, cleaning my apartment, remembering dates....You have your time NOW. Live it. Bill Cosby said it best, if you waste your whole life worrying about dying, you aren't really living.

    panic attacks are not something most people have to deal with. they are not normal without justified stimulation. if you can't find anything to help alleviate them, maybe you should talk to your doctor about them.

    all those times you thought for sure you were going to die, you never did.

    I know how you feel, when it comes to panic attacks, and it's not fun!! :( Hope you can find something that will help calm you down, like music, walking, etc. Good luck! :)

    I kinda feel like that too sometimes..it gets overwhelming and i hate it, and the fact that it's inevitable makes it even worse...my only advice is to seek some kind of religion to try and make sense of it all, or try to focus on things that make you happy and not think about it..maybe just drink a beer and relax..you're stressin too mush man
