I've really stressed lately. Now I find myself really upset, it gets harder and harder for me to breathe and there is a dull pain starting in my chest and seems to get worse when something new (in a bad way) comes up. It's like it never ends and my head is burning up from the anger. Am I on the way to having a panic attack? I've tried breathing in deeply, taking a break from work, smoking a cigarette, etc.

Lately, all i have wanted to do is cry. And before during and after that a get panic attacks. what do i do to calm myself down so i can break again?

My boyfriend has recently been experiencing panic attacks.They are very unpleasent when he has one. I was curious if there is any way I can help him calm down while he is experiencing one or if I should leave him alone. Im not sure what actions I should take, I just want to do what is best for him.

I suffer from Panic Disorder, and I’ve recently heard about some pressure points that help to calm Panic Attacks.
Where exactly are these, and how would i best go about applying them?

and what do you experience during one?

I think I've had a panic attack before, well actually I think I've had several in the past few years. But how do you know?

The pain is in the front of my neck - the muscles there…can muscles tense in this area from panic attacks…it hurts when i yawn, but not a sore throat as in an internal sore throat (like the one that comes with a cold or flu) anyone know what else, other than a panic attack could be causing this pain?

Yesterday I had a horrible panic attack in which my negative thoughts convinced me they were in control and could force me to commit suicide even If I didn’t want to. I fear my anxiety may have come to a point where not only can’t I stop it but it can control my body and movements. Is anxiety actually capable of this after a certain point or is that a fear in itself?
PS. I don't think I'm suffering from depression.

Bit of a delicate situation, I suffer quite severe panic attacks when I am with my boyfriend. I even have nightmares about it. I start to think the worst and go silent quite frequently.

a person was suffering from congestive heart failure (cor pulmonale due to COPD) and i am wondering if high anxiety/panic attack could have lead to cardiac arrest as person died

if so, in which way (how did this happen) ?
this happened after 4 days of flu-related COPD exacerbation .

i could also imagine some sudden walk excercise added up to the heart failure?

I am experiencing panic attacks and anxiety for the first time and I am quite scared. I have been to my GP and she offered me some anti-depressant medication which I do not wish to take. I am hoping someone out there has found a natural way to lessen anxiety.
