I'm with you. My first three full-bore panic attacks put me in ER each time.
Since my Mom died of heart disease at age 68 and everyone has all but gone out of their way to tell me "that puts you at risk", I am convinced that every skipped heartbeat I can feel is the one that will take me out of the game.
My cardiologist put it in perspective when he told me that 30% of folks that come see him have this and the episodes are always survivable... in fact, he summarized it "You'll die [i]with[/i] it, not [i]from[/i] it."
Once the Lexapro took hold and the docs weaned me off the daily Xanax, the realization came true that I am NOT going to die from the episodes, and that if one is coming on, I am able to ride it out. Granted, I have this condition to a lesser degree than many others here, but that doesn't make it any less terrifying when I experience it.
Just know that you can ride it out too, and you're going to be living well for a good long time, hopefully like many of us here. Be strong.

Hey Sarah, its me again, Rachele. From all of my reading it is pretty common to fear dying and/or going crazy. My particular fear is the going crazy part... specifically that I may harm myself. But like your thought it is obsessive and I have EXTREME difficulty getting it out of my head and not believing it. It completely BLOWS that your mind can play such tricks on you. Uuuggghhhh! Rachele
I feel like that every time I have a panic attack. Also the compulsive disorder does not help. you get a sharp chest pain and then you just compulse over it until you are sure you are dying. I have called 911, I have made trips to the ER...the only thing that gets me by is I say "Well, the last 10 attacks did not kill me so this one wont either!"
Hi--I know exactly how you are feeling. I am doing better at this moment but a week ago I thought for sure that this was it. I felt I was either going to have a breakdown or die from a heart attack. And the awful dreadful thoughts that go through your mind are horrible. What I did and it seemed to help me was luckily I had a few days off of work and I kept totally busy in the yard and I walked, walked, walked. Breathing also helped. I am never anxiety or panic free, but the above things seemed to help.
Good luck,

Hey
I'm sorry if this subject is out of line, i dont know i have only joined tonight so i'm not sure. But i was wondering if anyone else gets the feeling that they are going to die?
I'm always terrified that i'm going to, and over the last 2 years when i've been at my worse i have been back and forth from the doctors with such things as "my heart is going to stop beating"... "my blood is bad and is going to kill me"... i feel like i'm going crazy sometimes.
I havent felt that for a long while, until recently. Things seem to have hit rock bottom for me again and i'm gettin these thoughts again and i feel like i'm really losing it. Just want to know of anyone else feels things like this?
