Hello,
I have helped myself recently overcome panic attacks using a technique many will have heard of EFT – it is like acupuncture and you tap on certain body points.

I can now manage to do certain tasks especially performance related that I couldn’t before. I do still however have anxiety and other emotions that are stopping me from starting my career and being successful. I still feels like the panic is just under the surface.

Anyway, I have been reading this book called the Emotion Code by Dr Bradley Nelson. It teaches you how to tap into your subconscious using simple muscle testing procedures and find and release trapped emotions using magnets.

Ok airplanes and me do no get along, and never have since i was young. I have tried doctors pills sleeping pills even acupuncture. Im not scared of flying but the atmosphere and the feeling and the smell and the recycled air just urgh and i have panic attacks and throw up constantly! Even before boarding!
Even watching airline shows make me feel sick!
So heres the deal i’m from the UK and need to get to America.. does anyone know any other way of getting there? Or even some flights that do stop overs so i dont have to up and do 9 hours?
or going to somewhere first so its a shorter flight?

I had my very first panic attack last night. I have been a hypochondriac my whole life so the stress of that is probably what caused it and also family history because my mom and sister suffer them. At first I had no idea what was going on. My cheeks and jaw felt swollen, I got really tired and I had that feeling I can only describe as feeling like you’re not here. Like the world exists, but you’re not in it. Kind of disconnected. I thought this was because I didn’t get much sleep last night. I was scared though so I was thinking it might be aneurysm because I had a headache earlier, but not while this was happening. I decided to take a shower to see if it would help, but when I was in the shower I started having a hard time breathing. I got out of the shower and could not catch my breath and out of nowhere I got nauseous. I had not idea what was going on so I started hyperventilating and went to grab a paper bag. I was using that, but still I could not catch my breath. I felt like I was dying. Because my mom suffers from panic attacks she gave me a Xanax and within 45 minutes everything was better. This was one of the scariest things in my life. I really did feel like dying. This was my first panic attack ever, but I don’t want it again and I don’t like taking drugs, so does anyone know if Acupuncture has worked for their panic attacks?

I suffer from debilitating anxiety attacks. I’ve had them all my life and the dabbling in “modern medicine” worked for a spell but plateaud, leaving me even worse and with withdrawal to boot. I’ve been to a handful of different professionals and they just guess, prescribe, guess, prescribe… very frustrating.

So the long and short of it is, I’m sick of taking medicines like effexor, paxil and zoloft… I just can’t stomach trying more. So I’ve turned my sites on natural therapy.

So I have been having some health issues and acupuncture was suggested to me. I went and had a very intense session. The first thing that happened was she left the room and I had the needles in me and I drifted off a little bit. I was very relaxed, the needles did not bother me.Then I had a vision when I was dozing off. I had a vision of one of my children which I have not had, much less thought about having at this point in my life. Then after that I woke up and suddenly had a panic attack. Like I said it was not the needles. I actually got up off the table and started pacing in the room while the needles were still in. Then I made myself breathe and I finally calmed down and layed back down. After walking out of there I have never felt so UNbalanced in my life. I guess my questions are is it normal to have visions while having acupuncture? If it is, is it know as to why?? Also, the more I do it, will it balance out a little more? Is it just tapping into some stuff that needs to be dealt with or is this just maybe too much for me?

I have tried zoloft and paxil with extreme negative side effects including worsened anxiety, I’ve also been trying alternative therapies such as acupuncture and chinese herbs. They helped for a while but the attacks are back with a vengeance. Daily functioning has become hard. I’m curious about Lexapro and if anyone with the same probs may have benefited from it. Also, how long did it take to notice a difference? Please help Thanks
