Physical symptoms of panic attacks or stress related ordeals…?
My girlfriend experiences painful muscle spasms from time to time that results in sharp chest pains, accompanied by an irregular heartbeat, and a shortness of breath. According to her doctor, she is suffering from panic attacks which relate to some of the stress she is dealing with in her life. I can find that credible, but the part that really blows both her and my mind is the fact that the attacks can be a result of past stress… Like something that might have happened a week or two ago will all of the sudden trigger an unexpected attack in a moment when she is completely content or happy. In my mind, it seems more logical for immediate stress to effect somebody more than past stress.
What I am curious to know is does anybody else suffer similar problems and if so, are your attacks triggered as a result of past stressful experiences or are they usually immediate? Just curious. Thank you.
The very thing happens to me.
I have a problem dealing with issues as they arise and bottle them up inside, push them away not to be thought of for lated. Sometimes my mind will be roaming and happen upon that which I had so delicately tucked away and I’ll be striken with an attack.
It does seem more logical for them to happen at the time of the stress, but it also will happen if you don’t deal with the stress until it comes out on it’s own at a later time.
i’d call shenanigans on the fact that the attacks occur a week or so past the ordeal, but i’ve had anxiety attacks before that included hyperventilation

for me it was more common to have random attacks from god knows what time. to tell you the truth, they went away. i’m not sure why, but they left me alone about the same time i became a pothead. take it or leave it ;-)

It’s like this, these episodes do happen when she turns on to something and that "thing" will immediately let her recall of that painful event in her life. She may have not resolved that issue or has not gotten it over yet. try to take her to a psychologist.

She could have panic disorder. If that’s the case then the attacks are not triggered by anything traumatic, they just happen. It might sound hokey, but I used to have panic disorder, and it’s a serious thing. Your girlfriend might need therapy or even medication to get better, and if she gets help she will be glad she did. I know I am.

personal experience
My panic attacks always occur when I don’t feel stressed. They just come on and it does no good for others to say "calm down", because I feel perfectly calm. They are caused by my parasympathetic nervous system, which I have no control over. The only thing that will work is just waiting it out.

I had my first panic attack crossing a heavily traffic bridge.
I had no idea what was happening, I was so scared i thought I was going to die
I suffered from post traumatic stress disorder, I had a full blown panic attack
in layman’s terms , you keep sweeping your stuff under this carpet, then you can not get in the room so to speak
we don’t do this on purpose but unconsciously, that is how I coped
I hope this helped you understand a bit, they are all gone now, it is not a forever thing ( :
