Have had many but this time was bad... and doc had to give me meds called Klonopin it worked anybody had the same problems where you felt like you where DIEING! I seriousley thought I was dieing!

Answer:

I too, can relate to this. Panic attacks are not good and yes, you can feel as though you are dying.

I found that by learning and practising when I'm not having a panic attack, some basic relaxation techniques, I can control these much better.

Klonopin can be useful for these and I'm glad it works for you. What works for you might not work for someone else.

The Self-help toolkit on this website might give you some assistance in teaching yourself some basic relaxation techniques.

I hope things get better for you. It is possible to conquer your fears and stop the panic attacks. Hang in there.

Scary huh! and you can't even tell when they are coming sometimes. The first time I had a panic attack I thought I was having a heart attack. I hope you feel better!

you poor thing, you nearly gave me a panic attack

I have panic attacks where they had to take me to the ambulance from Wal-Mart.I had all the s/s of a heart attack.

I can sure relate to that. It is a very frightening experience. Many times i thought i was going to die.Particularly in a crowd of people. I hate to be the center of attention.If one starts to happen i feel trapped and the feeling gets worse.

Yeah, unfortunately, I have them pretty consistently. They're the most horrible experience in the world. I think I'd rather be hit by a car. I've been in the hospital four times because they get so bad.
