Lemon balm might be helpful in getting to sleep. It reduces thyroid, which is like your "drive to get things done and keep going". Thyroid is good for getting things done, not good for relaxing.

I've never heard anyone say it's habit forming or harmful. It just slows down the thyroid for a few hours.

I had great results with 5mg Lexapro. My attacks are related to a hiatal hernia (vagus nerve irritation) though.

Re: Panic attacks/A little story of me/Need help
Hello!!
I pulled myself out of extreme anxiety pretty much by accident. Meaning I didn't know I was doing it at the time.

My anxiety was caused by my doing a stupid action which caused legal and personal repercussions which lasted for years and were personally shaming and humiliating for me, let's not even mention extremely expensive, life-altering and destabilizing in every way.

I did have panic attacks but a huge part of my problem was terrible insomnia, I would wake up in a panic and not be able to get decent rest. This was ongoing for years, because the repercussions were ongoing and could have become exponentially worse at any time, not fully under my control.

First thing sound a little 'out there'. Because I had an interest in figuring out how it was that countries became fascist, I began watching documentaries about WWII in the middle of the night when I would awaken. This did a couple things: It reminded me that humans could survive horrific circumstances and that I actually had very many advantages present in my life.

And so I became grateful for those advantages, from the fact that my boots and feet were dry and I was warm to I could simply go to the pantry and prepare a meal, etc, etc., etc.... .

Before I knew it, this gratitude comprehension became a habit. The more I saw the more I saw.

Well into all this, I came upon a video by a neuroscientist who had done the imaging to map out our emotional states. He learned that feeling gratitude made the brain create a bump of serotonin, which in turn created its own dopamine.

So, without knowing it, I had retrained my brain.

So this doesn't mean that my world didn't suck at some very memorable times. But what it did do was it gave me a completely different baseline.

This has continued very wonderfully even all these years later. I consider myself one of the more grateful people I know. I see the world differently. I think I did a brain reset on myself and went through some brain training that created a happy life for myself. I know that every person can do this and the fact that you wish for a different life than you have now gives you an incentive to make that change. You can be happy. It is true that I was so miserable that for the first time I understood the concept and reality of Jesus. That is up to you and not necessary to created a happier brain.

My best to you!!!

This is what my girlfriend always tells me, that I should feel more grateful of what I have and stop being disappointed of things I cannot control.

Ur suggestion is eye opening. Thanks much.

I have never taken xanax or other drugs, but was unknowingly exposed to non pharma toxins which over time caused damage to my liver and kidneys.

after I found the cause of my illnesses which obviously were the cause for these attacks, I was able to avoid it completely and healed after about 3-4 month.
\
there is nothing funny with these attacks and my main concern would first be liver check etc, but for others to get a complete blood check from a trusted health care provider.

Re: Panic attacks/A little story of me/Need help
There was an event when I was 11 years old
that turned my life upside down... I felt lost closed to myself, developing gradually depression and suddenly on 16 I had the first panic attack. I was forced to quit high school because stress was eating me alive, panic attacks developed to agoraphobia and I was for years inside my room spending my time playing computer games or making music. My parents were pushing me to see a doctor... I denied any kind of help because I thought I was crazy and nobody could understand the hell I was living.
Anyway, 3 years of hell when suddenly at 18 or 19 years old I took the decision to see a doctor. Therapy sessions in combination with antidepressants helped me take my life back again. I learned a lot about myself on those sessions, I learned a lot about the human psychology. I was diagnosed with regular stress disorder/post traumatic stress disorder and and manic depression.
So I took the decision to start high school again, graduating finally, then I got into the university as a Sound Engineer since making music was always my passion and graduated with the best grades in my classroom... All these years going to school and working to random jobs at the same time.
I never managed to find a standard job as an Engineer where I live, so I continued doing shitty jobs to fulfill my personal goals.
I m 30 years old now, I have 2 dogs, a 6 years relationship, my dreams sports car but I lost my job mid covid Era.
I didn't have any regular therapy sessions last 3 years, maybe once a year, I didn't have the need to. This summer I took the decision and doctor seemed to agree and I finally stopped antidepressants, first weeks were a bit weird, but I got through them and trust me... I was so happy that I finally stopped taking drugs.

Little did I know.. I made a huge mistake, sitting home doing nothing, becoming non productive again, reading news, researching, taking measures about what is coming behind the covid agenda while everybody pushing me to take the jab.

Slowly stress was coming back, lately I m having the same horrible panic attacks when I drive away from my territory. I m taking Xanax day by day to be able to feel better... I m falling to the same old mud again and I feel ashamed of myself.

I don't wanna take antidepressants again, this is the reason I refuse to speak with my doctor.
Please, if somebody experienced this before, share some ways to fight it without taking drugs again.
I need to be strong because we are living in times we are getting heavily attacked and WE HAVE TO BE STRONG, for us, humanity and the people we love.
Thanks in advance.
God Bless you.

Re: Panic attacks/A little story of me/Need help
I feel for you.

I used to suffer from crippling panic attacks.

So bad I would have to pull off the side of the road and curl up in a ball to calm myself and convince myself I wasn't going to die.

I went to the doctors at first for check ups to see what was wrong with me, convinced my heart was failing.

They diagnosed me with general anxiety and wanted to put me on anti depressants.

I tried them, but they made me feel worse all the time, so I stopped them.

About 4 years of this goes on, I just deal with it and then they just stopped happening.

Caffeine really triggered me so I try to limit that as much as I can.

Good luck, I know they can be terrifying.

There is a light at the end of the tunnel.

Diet. Look up foods that help anxiety. Stay away from too much caffeine. Research EMDR it supposedly helps with anxiety/ptsd.

If you ever get really sick with the flu or something it’s a great time to quit drugs. I just got done almost dying and FINALLY can quit marijuana … thought it would never happen.

You also have to go real easy on yourself

Journey - be good to yourself


A lot of it is mental. Our mind is definitely related to our physical

Eg. women giving false births due to believing they are pregnant

The mind is far too powerful

Those problems are often demon related. What cures demons....accepting Jesus Christ as saviour and repenting specific sins to him and finding true life. If your not going to submit to the satanic illuminati and their nanotech vax, your only chance will be with Jesus Christ, no man can stand alone against the coming totalitarian technological world government. Things are going to constantly crash down in the days ahead and get worse, you need to put on the service and shield of Jesus Christ and become an end time spiritual warrior in his service. When you learn to only fear God and breaking his commandments, you can put away the fears of the world that cause hardships on us. Pray often, repent often, ask for his shield, ask for strength, ask for understanding. I pray Jesus Christ helps you to overcome.

Re: Panic attacks/A little story of me/Need help
I empathize with you Op, I have been there and done that. I Felt like I was a big ball of string, and could not even find an end piece from which to start with. I would suggest finding a group or a person that you can feel safe with, trust ,someone who has had a similar experiece is best, they will intuitivily know what you are talking about.And start talking, we all have the answers with-in us and it Is our journey!To become, what we where always meant to be, not many , take this journey frightens them too much. But it will take you to standing in the light. Tall and free, no matter what the rest of the worlds people are doing, that is none of our business. It is never selfish to want to live with your self for better person that is with in you, what joy!

You need past life regression therapy to find out what is really going on in your subconscious. Sounds like a deep rooted fear from a past lifetime(s) triggered by an event at 11 years. Fear of something causing anxiety, that's for sure.

Yep, something in the subconscious. One technique used to treat PTSD is to write down the event that traumatised you in detail and read it out loud. Move your head left to right and right to left several times. Come back a week later and read what your wrote and read it out loud again. Move your head left to right and right to left several times. Do it again and again until you feel that you are reading a story in the third person and are no longer feeling any emotions related to the event. The emotions related to the event are said to diminish. If this doesn't work, you need past life regression to get at the very bottom of a traumatic past in your subconscious.

I feel you bro, Nobody knowz how bad panic attacks are unless you've experienced them. I've suffered waves of anxiety and at times have rolled into full blown panic. It's the worst experience ever. It takes me a few days to pick myself up again. Meds made me worse. I came of meds and slowly picked myself up. Best decision ever coming of meds.

You also need to workout daily. I started off by simply walking a couple of miles every evening after dinner and have continued this till today.

Are you self medicating with the Xanax? Benzos are the most addictive substance on the planet and are a god send at first, but coming off can kill you if you don't taper correctly. Be extremely careful, because you can end up in a much worse place than you are today.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 81935891


Kickboxing helped me a lot to get tired, be fit and healthy but unfortunately I broke some hand bones that forbid me from training again.
Does walking really helps? Sounds like a good idea.

I m only taking 0,25mg when I m not feeling good, doctor agreed its fine as long as I don't do it daily and don't take above 0,50mg. I know the dangers and trying to be careful.

Re: Panic attacks/A little story of me/Need help
I have panic attacks now and then but I've almost got rid of them. Meditation and deep breathing exercises are very effective. Also, essential oils help me relax and fall asleep faster. And of course, sports and yoga help me a lot. As for medications, I tried antidepressants, but Venlafaxine wasn’t right for me, I started suffering from tiredness, headaches, and nausea (having checked the description on the Canada Drugs site [link to www.canadadrugsdirect.com (secure)] , I found out that these were side effects). And I heard the same thing about Xanax from several people, that was one of the reasons why I didn't start taking it.
