Epilepsy Or Bad Panic Attack? Posted: 04-27-07 19:02pm
I have had panic attacks from the age of
17 approx, and I am now very good at
coping with these should they occur. I
realize the importance of breathing and
calming and reassuring myself. This really
hasnt been a problem with me. However,
more recently I have been having moments
that last up to approx 10 mins where I get
a wave over my head that makes my brain
feel like its freezing and I feel very
disorientated and weepy. I find it very
difficult to concentrate and as a result
am sleeping and very tired all the time.
When this is happening I know where I am,
but if im talking to someone I dont really
know what im talking about, but the other
person seems unaware that this is going on
inside my head at that time. Its a very
disturbing feeling and is not like a panic
attack that I have ever had. I was afraid
that it might be a slight form of
epilespy. Numerous doctors and hospital
appointments have not concluded any sort
of diagnosis.
