i have had panic attacks before, and in general i am just anxiety-ridden
i have improved over the years, but i was wondering when you feel that pit-of-your-stomach feeling for no reason, what do you do to calm yourself down immediately?
all i can think to do is focus on my breathing but it doesn't always help. do you guys have any tips for this sort of anxiety? how many people have experienced this? :( it seems like when i mention this to other people they have no idea what i am talking about. thanks :)

Definitely have. It's a very common thing, I've found. But I learned to get a handle on it. PM me if you want :)

OMG I get the same way! Does sometimes you feel like your just going to stop breathing? I've found out that if you chew gum it always helps. Or it does for me lol.

As far as I'm concerned...your just another picture to burn!

I get the same feeling. I sit there and figure out what I have to be upset about. If you really think about it and try to be optimistic, you realize that you have no reason to be upset and it goes away. Just don't let the feeling overwhelm you!

a little bit, actually. it's hard to describe the feeling, it's more of a gut reaction, like i feel like something dreadful is just about to happen, and it kind of takes off from there. :S
i will definitely start bringing gum around with me, who knows, maybe it will help :)

My best friend and I have pretty bad anxiety, sometimes leading to panic attacks. She takes klonapin for her anxiety, which is like xanex. She says it really helps out alot, and I'm thinking about going to see a doctor and maybe getting put on some meds.

When I feel that way and I'm home I put on loud and aggressive music and blast away. When I get it outside the house it' usually when I'm in the middle of a large group or crowd so I try get away from them as quickly as I can.
