As someone who has lived with a mom who had Panic Attacks. My son has Anxiety attacks and Panic attacks. And I have Anxiety attacks.

""An anxiety attack, people may feel fearful, apprehensive, may feel their heart racing or feel short of breath, but it's very short lived, and when the stressor goes away, so does the anxiety attack. Panic attack on the other hand doesn't come in reaction to a stressor. It's unprovoked and unpredictable.""

Too many people lump it all together as one.... and just Say Buck up and white knuckle your way through it... I know different from both ends....

Good morning Team Rachel. While I was just reading and thinking about all that's going on, so much caring and sharing here...Rachel's voice lives on.

Hope you all have a good Thursday

I was thinking the same, and got to wondering if she wouldn't have minded this... added to the thread name....share and prayers.... More folks that need to talk about their health and/or find encouragement could find it here. Just a thought. Maybe some would think it's taking away from her. Don't mean to.

Debby and I can change the titles of threads. Set up a poll maybe for a new name?

If there's a way to check with Don first, I think it's a great idea!

One of my daughters suffers from PTSD. Anxiety, and anxiety attacks were commonplace. When she finally went into meltdown, she and the kids came to live with me. It took a month to get it back under control to where she could function with some stability. I began teaching her how to fight back. She used the things I suggested. It's not instant. It takes time and practice, but I know for fact they do help a lot. Later on, I insisted she seek professional help, and finally she found a good therapist. As they went through the events that caused her PTSD, there were times it was a bit too much for her. By then, she was reaching out to me, instead of keeping it bottled up. More, and more she learned to manage it. She's never been on medication for it, and now her therapist is amazed at how she has progressed.

One of the problems with anxiety is that the thoughts produced are almost always negative. You have to force yourself to balance that out with positive thoughts, which is very hard at first.

Remember when I said my blood tests were coming out bad, and I had to cut back on my research, because it was overwhelming me? I practice what I preach. My research time became my worry time, and when worry time was over, so was my researching, until I could get my mind back under control.
