Anxiety and Panic Attacks

Since I can remember, I have had OCD. As a child I obsessed over suffercating and questioning if I feel “real” or “really there”. I have had about 5 panic attacks in my life. I can deal with the panic attacks and OCD, but the derealization is affecting my life a lot. When I am driving I worry that I will crash because I worry that I will obsess if I am feeling real or not. I call in to work often because I feel that DR is going to be too hard to deal with that day. Every time I have something coming up that I am looking forward to or is out of my comfort zone, I worry that DR is going to either ruin my good time, or make a situation scary for me to deal with.

I was on medication for 2 years and it helped my OCD but not the DR. Therapy helped a little bit but it has never gone away. Honestly, how can something be cured that is brought up volantarily and cannot be helped? Its 100% me obsessing over the thought and its destroying my life.

Hi,
my boyfriend of 3 months has always been honest about his anxiety and how it may affect our relationship, namely that he occasionally has panic attacks about us (some, although not all, are about how he would feel if things went wrong with me, based on a past relationship, and mixes up those bad feelings with his feelings about me). He is on medication which helps a lot, but sometimes he does have panic attacks out of the blue. I was hoping that someone (particularly someone who also suffers from anxiety) would have some advice for me – What is the best way for me to react to these attacks? How can I calm him down? I know that I can’t change or cure him, I just want some advice to help him cope with these attacks. We have talked about it, but he has only recently recognized that he has an anxiety disorder, so doesn’t know himself the best way to cope with it.
Thanks, Louise
No he isn’t seeing a therapist at the moment – he has seen councilors in the past, but not since being diagnosed. I will suggest that to him – thanks for your advice Cassie! x

I have an anxiety disorder, I’m always so nervous and I find myself crying through out my panic attacks because I’m scared, But this is usually in public, and I’m tired of it all.

My question is, If I told my regular doctor about it, would he prescribe the medication (antidepressants) to me?
or would he have to refer me to a psychiatrist first?

I don’t want to talk to a psychiatrist, I feel very uncomfortable about it.

For some reason when my son was 3 months old i started having panic attacks. It been over a years and they have gotten a little better. Im not sure how or why they started they just did and im going to school and living a semi normal life again. The only major problem i still have is i cant drive on freeways(i live in Houston, Tx). I start freaking out and think im going to pass out so i don’t even try anymore just out of fear i might pass out wreck and die. I know sounds crazy i know its all in my head i just cant control it when i feel like i cant breath and sometimes my nerves get so bad my eye starts like twitching, i really don’t want to take any medication so if there’s any advice from people who have experienced and overcome this i would greatly appreciate it. Oh and i have not seen anyone for my anxiety yet.
