hey BN,
I deifnelty experienced that ealrier this month when my anxiety woudl get really bad. i woudl tyr and fight it off all day and then finally i would feel so tired and discouraged that iw oudl just feel liek crying,a nd woudl cry harder than i have in a long time. i had just started taking prozac so that may have had somethign to do with it, cause that aspect seems to have subsided some. i is happenign a lot less now. For me it would feel sort of liek a release, and usually i woudl feel better afterwards, less anxiety... is that how it is for you? that is great that your wife is so supportive. hang in there, and allow yourself to cry and be sad and dont beat yourself up about it, cause in the end you are entitled to have bad moments, or even hours, and it is healthier to let it out.
You are not alone in this. Uncontrolable crying is one of my symptoms. I find sometimes I make it worse by trying not to cry. If I feel the tears coming and I don't resist it seems the episode is less intense and shorter in duration.
I also have a very supportive spouse. My husband is wonderful, but sometimes I wish he didn't have to be so wonderful. If is hard to need the support of others. But for whatever the reason that is the way all of us here were made.
Take heart, it does get better. Talk about your feelings, post here about your feelings - every little bit helps.
Thankyou guys.
It's really good to know I am not alone and that I'm not on the road to going loopy.
I've signed up for the CBT programme and it looks good.
Even just putting thoughts down in the diary seems to help and the folk that contribute to these forums are brilliant and so understanding.
Dear BN,
Yes I understand your feelings on this one. Don't forget we (males) are often encouraged to supress any open show of emotion. When this is impossible to withhold we feel worse as there is a 'socially unacceptable' component.
I to have been extremely emotional over the past few weeks often with tears in panic attacks. My worst times were in the emergency when theres lots of people around! Its important to express these feelings when you need to. I have 2 young kids and it has been difficult for them to see me in this state however we have discussed this at length with them in order not to alarm them. That took some getting used to and the whole process added considerable anxiety. But now I don't worry. I just get on with rational part. You too will overcome your concerns over this.
Your wife sounds like a wonderful supporter. Its difficult for her to see you like this no doubt but if she also reads these posts and other books etc and gains other information she will see that you will improve and that you are passing through the necessary phases. Make sure you involve her!
Anyway hope some of this helps.
best wishes
Mick

BN,
You are not alone in this :) You wife seems like an amazing support person to have around. What can you do?
Have you tried relaxation techniques? What about breathing techniques? Prepare by reducing your anxiety level as much as you can. Try a hot bath, some soothing music or a warm beverage, brisk walk. Sitting idol will only increase the tears and you want to avoid that.
Tomorrow do sign up for the Panic Diary where you can record your daily level of anxiety. You can also find how helpful it is to use breathing techniques to help you deal with your panic and anxiety. The Panic Program can help you understand more and may help you go about challenging your thoughts.
Take some time for yourself, instead of crying, bake :) Do something uplifting and joyous to keep you in better spirits. This may not always work, but you can minimize it slowly.
Keep Strong,
Josie

Am I alone in this - I really hope not.
All my anxiety attacks are characterised by floods of tears (amongst other, more variable symptoms)
I always always just end up in floods of tears and can't control them no matter how hard I try.
My wife is brilliant and is incredibly supportive but I just feel so ashamed of myself that I cannot look her in the eyes for a while.
I feel like I am not in control of myself for some reason and I can't handle that and thus the sobbing.
:(
