I was just wondering, what might be the cause of the reason, why Panic/Anxiety attacks are so evident on my face? Its almost as if the muscle in my face, seize up completely when I'm having an attack. Is there some kind of chemical in the body, that regulates and controls the signs of stress and anxiety on the face?
if youre meaning klonopins brand name for clonazepam, it is a potent long lasting benzodiazepine that is used for anxiety, panic attacks, seizures associated with epilepsy. it also eases opiate withdrawal and since its long lasting you dont need to take it as much. it is still very addictive because it is very potent 1mg is equal to about 20mgs of valium. it is in youre system for up over 50 hours.
Secondly, is this how you usually experience your anxiety attacks? I know this one is long lasting, but I mean when you get your attacks is this how they manifest themselves normally? If so, relax, find something to do for awhile, and when it's done try to think about what might have triggered it. As for the hospital, there's a big difference between giving you a few benzos for anxiety and putting you on pain pills.
I've had panic attacks for over 20 years, and I can go for a year without one. But for the last few weeks I've had rolling panic attacks, some lasting over 24 hours. I've been given Lorazepam, but I'm just exhasted by the anxiety. Each time I think it's finished, back it comes. I start therapy in November, but that seems like a very long way away.
Does anyone else have these rolling attacks?
Has anyone looked for a physical reason for your anxiety and panic attacks? This problem is not necessarily emotional. In my case (the same symptoms)I was in the early stages of adrenal fatigue with high cortisol. Xanax worked wonderfully, but I only took it to abort an attack, did not take a maintenance dose, and the dosage was very small (.25mg). Xanax can work miracles with these attacks, but it is very nasty stuff and highly addictive.
how long one anxiety/panic attack lasts.and what is the mimimum time diffrence for second anxiety/panic attack?
And to my ignorance, I was actually used it for several months when you were supposed to only take it for 3 days. After stopping for several months, severe anxiety attacks started to occur. I'm thinking now it might've been a rebound effect of Afrin. But I've read somewhere that Afrin is one of OTC medications you should not be taking(as a warning). Might be best to talk to your doctor first and foremost before using it. I wouldn't recommend using it at all.
Zoloft is a great drug, I have had panic attacks and anxiety for years and they went away after being on Zoloft and xanex as needed. It does take some time to find the right dose and the side effects to go away but stay with it!! Before I started the Zoloft I was taking 2-4 mg of xanex a day, after some time I was not taking any, and my life was normal again. Unfortunately after 12 plus years on Zoloft it pooped out on me a year ago...
Why? I have severe panic attacks a lot and the xanax 1mg numbs me for 5 mins then im back to panicking.
I've had anxiety so bad I'm in tears for two days straight now and I'm only on day three!
They are thought to be panic attacks but I just know something more serious is wrong. Because I have health anxiety and have run to the doctor/ER many times for the last few years, I've become "the boy who cried Wolf" to my friends and family. Recently I had a biopsy on a mole that truly was acting suspicious (crusting, bleeding, different from others...) which made me very anxious.

I have been suffering from what I think is anxiety for about 6 months now and have not been to a doctor about it yet. I have a constant fear of pretty much everything all of a sudden and I'm afraid to go out in public because I'm afraid of having an anxiety attack. When I have these attacks I get this sudden dizzy, light headed feeling as if I'm falling and my heart races and I get jittery and shaky and I just want to get out of wherever I am as fast as I can.
I feel I have symptoms of generalised anxiety disorder and not sure if they are panic attacks as such but at times I feel sick, my heart races and my chest feels tight and I feel sudden urge to pass urine or open my bowels. It has got worse during a recent period of stress.
When you pass urine, is it a large amount? It is with me, even when I haven't been drinking that much water.
Just plain Anxiety everyday. I have basically been like this for 18 yrs oh there are good days and bad days. I have been on meds for along time but I think some meds lose their effectiveness over a long period of time. And I understand your frustration when others tell don't worry about or don't dwell on it but that seems to be our nature. Are you on any Medication for your Anxiety? If not you probably see your Dr to see if they can help you.
I also suffer from terrible anxiety and with my first pregnancy with twins I was so terrified of the whole process as well as scared I would have an anxiety attack while in labor but once I actually got to the point, I didn't have a whole lot of time to focus on my actual anxiety. Now that I'm expecting again, I'm having the anxiety all over again and even more because I feel like I will fear the process more knowing exactly what I will encounter.
