Worry Looks Back!
Having panic attacks can be a sign
of mental illness. It may take a few trips to different doctors to
determine your unique diagnosis. Be careful when choosing a
Psychiatrist. They are people too. You may not click with your first one or your
second one or on and on and on. Keep
searching until you find the one who fits you. A very good doctor will be patient and write things down for you so you
can remember what you are supposed to do as many medications have the side
effect of impaired memory. A good doctor
won’t get mad at you for your disease. This is what you should be looking for in a Psychiatrist.
The
symptoms of a panic attack are, but are not limited to:
1. Chest pains
2. Stomach
upset
3. Dizziness,
lightheadedness,
4. Nausea
5. Difficulty
breathing
6. Tingling and
numbness in the hands
7. Flushes or
chills
8. Dreamlike
sensations
9. Perceptual distortions 10. Terror 11. Fear of
losing control
12. Fear of dying These can all be symptoms of an
anxiety attack. If you are experiencing
more than a few of these symptoms seek the advice of your doctor.
A panic attack is feels like things crawling the walls
inside your head. You cannot escape them
on your own. You need medical attention
for these attacks. Panic attacks may be symptoms of an anxiety
disorder. These attacks are a serious
health problem in this country. At least
1.7% of adult Americans, or about 3 million people, will have a panic attack at
some point in their lives. The symptom
is strikingly different from other types of anxiety in that panic attacks are
so very sudden, often unexpected, appear to be unprovoked, and are most often
disabling.
