Hello, my name is Rhonda and I have Bi-Polar, Panic Disorder, OCD, PTSD and FMS. It sounds as if I am crazy but I am not..well maybe a little:o) lol. I do not have a lot of time right now but will be back for sure. i do have a ? I have not had a panic attack in a long while. I have 3 wonderful Drs and they have me on great meds that are working wonderful! Life is GREAT. I feel like the old Rhonda. I was driving Sat. Night and out of no where BOOM! a major panic attack! A hige one that lasted about 1 hour. Does anyone have an idea why? Or where it came from? It scares me because I do not want them coming back. Like I said I don't have a lot of time at this moment but will be back later. If you have any input please tell:o) See you soon and thank you ahead of time.

Hi Rhonda, welcome to our community. If you have a background of panic disorder, you would know that they sometimes just come out of the blue and blindside you. The good thing is, that does not mean that it will happen again anytime soon. You may go yrs and this not happen again. If I were you I would try not to think about it too much or over analyze. I wish you the best. Bye for now. Debbie

Hi Rhonda,


I am by means so expert about bipolar only having been dx about 9 months ago but are your meds stable? Only reason I ask is that when mine aren't my anxiety climbs up and up and while I think I'm just anxious p/a can strike out of nowhere for no apparent reason.


Wish I had advice, Do your meds have anti-anxiety components in them or more what I mean to say is that is the doseage high enough to treat anxiety as well as all the other fun parts of bipolar that we love so much.


Forgive my pesimissm today but I'm in an I hate bipolar mood these days, lol. I'm really glad you found us. I was so blessed the day I found this board, the ladies here are just amazing! We all suffer so many different things and yet we can come together as a group and be truly supportive. It is so wonderful : )


Hugs & Prayers,



Danielle
