Sleeping Posted: 05-08-06 10:59am
I sympathise. I too have sleep problems
on and off have done for years. Recently
i've had constant anxiety for a few days
after a bad panic attack I had at 3.30 am.
I live alone so I had no-one to help calm
me down! I ended calling samaritans which
really helped and then a couple of hours
later I managed to get to sleep!
It is horrible, I know. Hang in there.

Real Sleep Solution Posted: 05-08-06 13:48pm
Sleep is a very complex process. But
making a few life changes can make a world
of difference. Not being able to relax,
being under constant stress is one of the
main reasons people suffer from sleep
disoders. Exercise is wonderful to help
relieve stress. Not even strenous
exercise. Simply taking a daily 30 or 45
minute walk can help tremendously. You
should also look into yoga, meditation and
breathing exercises.

Hi There... Posted: 05-08-06 18:21pm
Yeh,a few years ago,i did get into a bit
of walking when I had a couple of anxiety
free months,it actually went away and I
felt great,i started venturing out of the
house a bit and then started on daily
walks to the park,everything was going
great,then one day I was on my local
market doing some shopping with my other
half,having a good time,then all of a
sudden it came back,the panic attacks came
back and hit me from no where,i just made
my way home and would`nt go out again for
months,now this time the anxiety has
stayed for good,that was about 10 months
ago,my walks stopped there and then,i`ve
not been on a walk again since that
day,some days I try to do a bit of
cleaning up,even just 10 minutes of that
and my heart is pounding,and I have to sit
down,i`de love to get well enough to get
back to my walks again,but i`m yet to find
a break in my anxiety,hopefully soon it
may fade out and it will give me a few
weeks panic free...But I know they wont go
for long,they`ll come back sooner or
later...

Yea wheh my anxiety started hard I coulnt
go for my waks anymore everytime I owuld
go my heart would beat realy fast but then
I started slow like 5 minutes that had me
outta breeah then 10 now I incorparated
some jogging,..Not much juts a bit and I
go for these walk10-12 minutes so I odnt
over do it.My heart beats fast but it
feels good ( exept when you get the thumps
or flutter).
As far as doing thing aruond the house
yeah me too iw as cleaning up and then I
felt kinda outta breath or my herat
beating faster even tho common knowlegde
dictates that its nrmal with activity ie
passing the vaccum and scrubbing I guess
were more receptive and feel it more and
question it omre.I thought for sure I had
heart disease hell I still do.
Im ding talk terapy now and it helped a
bit,i was told cognetive behavioral
therapy is better and im starting on that
thursday hopefully it hepkls as well.
I dont know if you do any but I think its
worth a shot

Hey Mitch Posted: 05-08-06 19:24pm
When I first told my doctor last year that
i`ve had panic attacks for the last 20
years,he imedietly prescribed me
citropramm,and for the imediet relefe ihe
also prescribed me diazapam,the diazapam
just used to blow my head off,and I i`de
usually just sleep all the time,the
citropram used to help as in,i would`nt
have as many attacks but when I did get
one,it was just as bad,and I used to get
confused which scared me,then I was took
of that,and I was prescribed
paroxatine,that had a slight different
effect,i used to feel tired and a bit
sick,and confused,and had strange dreams,i
thought "was it really worth it"
..Anyway,i disided to go it alone,and put
up with it...
As for the talk therapy,my doctor said he
could arrange for me to have some
councilling,but he said it could take up
to a year..But its a social type of
thing,and that is one of my major
problems,agrophobia,and every other social
phobia you can think of,i seem to have it
all,plus..The other reason I desided not
to take it up,is because,the years of
panic attacks and anxiety has just totally
grinded me down,i just know i`ll them
down,i`de probebly only turn up once,then
run away and never go back...
