17 Year Old Girl- Am I Experiencing Panic Attacks And Anxiety?

March 7th, 2010 1 comment
Life’s what you make it,,,, asked:

Heyy. I was arguing with my Mum a few nights ago over something silly and was getting annoyed… then suddenly I felt like an almost overwhelming rush of dizziness, and I took a deep breath and tried to stay calm, and it passed in a few seconds. Afterwards, I felt shaky and a bit anxious. THen later that night I was watching TV, and I felt totally relaxed (but obviously still subconciously worrying about what had happened) and my heart rate went up and I got sweaty palms… felt a sense of impending doom. I was able to calm myself after a few seconds again.
Every day since for the past 4 days this is happening. I feel anxious in the mornings, fine at about midday and then I get a really dizzy feeling and then feel anxious for the rest of the day. I am experiencing rushes of mild dizziness and anxiousness at the moment. I am really worried and think I am experiencing anxiety and mild panic attacks. I keep fearing I will have another one, or it will be worse, and this leads me to anxiety.

Also, I doubled up my blood pressure medication (2 weeks ago) without telling the Doctors because I thought my blood pressure had risen (stupid I know), and my diastolic number is really low all the time now…… like 50 ish. And it dropped to 46 the other day. [it should be about 80 / 90 for me]

Do you think this could be causing the dizziness / anxiety? Low blood pressure symptoms are usually:

Dizziness, or feeling like you’re standing on a rocking boat
Changes in mental status (difficulty concentrating, confusion) or a sense of “IMPENDING DOOM” or ANXIETY
Changes in breathing patterns (fast, shallow breathing is common during an episode of low blood pressure)
Suddenly feeling cold or clammy, or a rapid onset of pale skin

I have all of these.
So do I have panic attacks, or just symptoms of low blood pressure? THanksss

anxiety attack/panic attack help? ?

Alright, so basically I have anxiety.
And I had my first panic attack a month and a half ago.
Like this dizzy feeling, lightheadedness, palpitation.
I am 12, weighing currently 65 kilos(around 130 pounds) and 5 feet tall.
Can you cure anxiety without medication? If so, what are the natural remedies? There are famous sites that cure anxiety, and alot of people reviewed on it and said it works, though I don’t want to pay for it. Does anyone know those natural remedies, besides going to the doctor, therapy, etc.
btw, I went to the doctor the first day, when I had my first panic attack, the first man said he wasn’t sure if I had anything wrong with me, my blood pressure was perfect for my age. We went to another doctor just to get another opinion, she said I’m absolutely fine, I’m just a little too stressed for my age.
So, that hopefully, must lead to anxiety.
Since I have the symptoms.
numbness/tingling/slight coldness at times in toes/fingers.
dizziness sometimes, and shortness of breath, chest pain.
I need your help please
(:
Also, the day I had my panic attack I weighed 68 kilos, now 65.

and I’ve heard about easycalm.com, the linden method, and a few more.
Has someone joined one of them, if so what did you do, and could to give me the advice that they gave you?
please, I am in need!!

Pre-Heart Attack or Panic Attack?

panic heart attack symptoms
Pip asked:


I’ve been having what I thought were panic attacks lately ( I have not had confirmation from a doctor but from what I have read they have either been panic or anxiety attacks). Anyway, I found this in an answer to a heart attack question:

“A heart attack usually provokes shooting pain on the chest that extends to the LEFT arm and also shortness of breath, palpitations, dizziness, loss of consciousness and many more obvious symptoms”

My question is do you get sharp shooting pains in your chest, near heart area, for panic attacks? Or is that strictly a heart attack symptom? I feel that I am too young to have a heart attack, but I am pretty overbooked, thus overly stressed. I haven’t had an shooting pains in my left arm though, and I know that is a trademark for Heart Attacks. So does anyone know whats going on with me? Here are the symptoms I have had for reference:

-Chest Pain
-Shaking (Not always)
-Headache
-Dizziness/Nausea
-Trouble Breathing

Thank you for your help!
