Aa
bad anxiety today
OMG i dont know what happen today but i had 4 anxiety acks one after another because i had a yell out fight with my mother in law and i think thats what coused it because i wouldnt drop what i was doing just for her well sorry my kids comes frist but i dont think she like that when i told her that so i took a warm bath and i felt better so now im not talking to my mother in law till my hubby gets home sunday .
I have have several panic attacks today and I am trying not to take meds at all. I have only been going through this for two weeks now and I have refused drugs. I hope that I can keep fighting this by myself. I just keep trying to remind myself that these attacks can't hurt me and that I am fine. Good luck and I hope things get better for us all.
As Kande said, you had 4 victories. I tend to REALLY get down on myself, (i.e my journal and my posts). I have been feeling anxiety 24/7 for some time now and I always get down on myself, but so far today even through the panic, I am at work, I just ran for 45 minutes, and I am flying (gulp) home with my wife to visit our families for the weekend (Which is great because both our families live less than hour apart and everyone is getting together on Saturday).
I say this because confronting and living with the panic and anxeity is a victory in itself. As much as it terrifies me to run everyday (because I have panic about my heart) and travel, I know life has to go on. I cannot be so afraid of dying I refuse to live. Heck, I am still not convinced I do not have a medical problem, but 'gutting' through it is the hardest we have to do.
Think of getting through 4 attacks as a small step towards recovery. You did it, and I know EXACTLY how hard it is both mentally and physically to be able to do that. Give yourself a pat on the back and smile.

You got thru the entire ordeal by yourself, (no meds.)...good for you. I know this is your goal,as you have stated before. Not only did you make it , but you made it 4 times today.So that is 4 defeats for panic attacks, and 4 wins for the home team. Yea! All joking aside you did it. Good for you! Kande
yeah that can cause the attacks, sorry to hear you had them try and calm down, when i have a bad day like that i take a .05 ativan and snuggle with my awesome hubby always makes me feel better. have a great night .Barbara
