I am really getting frustrated with myself! I was making great progress on the panic and now all of a sudden I can feel the attacks coming on again! So far, i have been able to keep them from becoming full blown attacks, but I get the beginnings of dizziness and I fell a tightness in my chest and my hands and arms get all tingly. It happened yesterday while sitting there with my therapist. That freaked me out because I ususally feel very calm and relaxed when I am with her. She didn't seem to notice which made me think maybe I have more control than I believe. I told her I felt very anxious but didn't tell her I was starting to have an attack. I don't know why, but it was almost like I felt embarrassed to tell her.
I don't know if maybe the Zoloft isn't working well anymore and maybe I need to try something else or what. But I really want to have a baby soon and I want to learn to control this without lot of medication. Once I have kids, the doctor can dope me up all she wants!LOL I just want to get through a pregnancy with as few drugs as possible.
Geez, even sitting here typing this I feel jittery, as if I am going to freak out at any moment. I have to go to Red Robin with my mom, niece, and best friend today for my niece's birthday and I am so worried I will have an attack!
There is one thing I am wondering about also. Does anyone else feel extra anxious when they are tired or have a headache or backache?

For whatever reason, your anxiety has been triggered. If it's the tiredness & headaches, yes ITA. Stuff like that can really throw me off. Also, is it near your period? That is a big one for
(((Jessica))) Are you under any added stress??
