I went to the dr. who informed me that I was actually depressed from the sheer exhaustion of pretending that I was fine everyday when I was not. I was constantly dizzy and would have feeling of doom. As I saw the dr, he gave me Zoloft, and it did cure my attacks. I hadn't had one in years. I came off of Zoloft in Sept of 07. I have had 2 times since then that the start of my panic came back. But since I knew exactly what was wrong with me so I didn't allow myself to be scared as I knew exactly what was going to happen. For me this was a panic attack. (BTW the two starts that I have had after going off of Zoloft, of panic attacks, I was able to stop as I knew what was happening.) But this is what would happen to me. First I would lose the sensation of sight in my left eye only. There was a small spot that I just could not see. After that I knew that the next thing was I would start to have a feeling of numbness that would start in my hand and travel up my arm, then it would go into my throat and neck and tongue, and continue down only on my left side to my leg and foot. I sometimes would be this way for at least 10 minutes. I was so scared and thought that I had just had a stroke. But when I went to this particular Dr, he knew exactly what was happening to me. I just feel lucky that the Zoloft worked for me. I was 28 years old when I went on the Zoloft, and felt that I wanted to see what happened when I went off of it now. My decision had nothing to do with the new findings about depression drugs not working and making people suicidal at all. I just wanted to see where I was. Turned out to be the right thing for me. I still have Klonopin but it is used for each time I get anxious which is very little now. So I wish you luck!!

There are many many symptoms of panic/ anxiety syndrome. Rapid pulse, sweats, feeling like the air is not enough, feeling like you are going to have a heart attack,light headdedness, various pains, numbness in the hands/ arms. I feel for you if you are going through this. Often panic attacks come about after some trauma or past life event. Sometimes this reason is known to you, sometimes not. These panics can be literally triggered by nothing. It is what they call the fight or flight response, but you probably know this. I have suffered from panics since I was physically and mentally bullied as a child and hoipefully it seems like I have turned a corner. Have you considered counselling ? But that is not for everyone. There is a really good PDF file that you can google. Just google Social anxiety PDF. I found it extremely helpful and it works. Also there are many relaxation tapes that help. There is a Doctor down south called Doctor Albert Smith. Try and google him, his tapes are very helpful. Email me anytime if you want to talk. I also have a blog that you can go to and contact me privately. http://alonehelp.blogspot.com/ It is a voluntary non profit blog that is just for anyone that wants to talk in confidentiality.
