Debora,

First off this is just a panic attack. It is illogic and if you think of it that way it will go away. Slow down and breath and let all the symptoms happen. They are not important.

Now. why did this happen. Simple. Because you expected to panic you focussed on the possibility and caused it to happen. This is the thought part of the panic triangle. Now you are focussing on the symptoms and causing them to happen.

Do what the others are doing her. Take back control. Journal. Write down how you feel and write down that these are false feeling. Write that they do not belong there. You need to get this thought in your brain in place of the negative focussing you are doing. This is the reprogramming your therapist is talking about.

More on why you are having panic attacks if you want it later when you are calmer.

Do the breathing and tell yourself it is okay. You are going to cure this. You can cure this. Tell yourself this instead of thinking you can't.

Sunny or someone are online?

I am having a very bad episode right now. I have every symptom in the book I think, stomach pain, blurred vision, shaking, headache racing heart etc......I went to bed in such peace late last night I prayed that I could just do two things today just today little things mop and vacum the floor and go get groceries, you would think I could at least do that an hour after waking it all hit me like a tidal wave I cant stop shaking and the bodily symptoms are horrible and this is going on way too long I just feel like slapping myself for falling apart this way I mean you would think I could at least mop a floor and go get groceries two very little things. Why do I go to sleep at peace and prayer every night and wake up to terror everyday? could someone tell me that? I am breathing trying to think positive but these symptoms are overwhelming I can barely read the homework? What am I doing wrong?

Nothing goes away, you have to make it go away. That is what the program is for, to teach you how to make it go away. If it goes on it's own then it was never there, it was only imagined. Panic is real, relapses are real, setbacks are real. You have to fix them.

When we say "this too will pass" We mean you will make it do it, not spontaneously on it's own.

Hi Deborah,

It may feel like you're back to square one, but I think you're further ahead. You have made great use of the resources you have at the Panic Center - reading through the information on the site, reaching out when you need help and offering up kind words of advice and support to other members.

Remember to give yourself credit!

Your situation will get better, but as Sunny said, take it one day - one step at a time. You're climbing the mountain right now, but you're not alone. You have people cheering you on, lending a hand and showing you the way.

So glad to hear the hope in your message tonight.

HI Debora: You had a really bad day, I am really sorry to hear this. Yes I believe you can get better. I'm glad the therapist is finally saying CBT will help you by retraining your brain. I hope he does the program with you and helps you with it. One day at a time, one session at a time.

Still rooting for you and saying a prayer,

Sunny

I just read the post from Ducky and I could totally relate about the relapse situation. I had three panic attacks yesterday normally I just have one and it was bad. My Aunt helped me by saying a rosary with me and my therapist came today, actually he was helpful today, my Aunt prayed very hard he could help me and give me the tools. He explained that the bad painful monthly and what my sister said affected me and I have to find a way not to dwell and ignore, he said I have to distance myself from negative toxic angry people and he said in my fragile conditon I could not take what she said to me.

He said he did not think it was neccessary to go to a hospital that he said would cause more stress by my worrying about the homefront, he seems to think this is a temporary setback and I can go back again, how I pray and hope he is right, the bodily symptoms were so severe today I could barely stand it, the klonopin and the session with him and my diary on this site helped a little, I just hope I can go back up where I was, feeling just a little better with some hope, setbacks are so hard aren't they?

I just have to learn to calm myself and not let scary horrific thoughts enter my brain, easier said than done, he seems to think CBT will help me "retraining my brain" which is hard hard work, I just hope I am up to the challenge, I feel very weak and sick, and I hate my family seeing me like this, I must learn to relax, I had forgotten how bad the attacks were for about 2 weeks and now I am reminded, I must just keep telling myself, "this too will pass" can anyone please help me and tell me what the did about setbacks and relapses? do they go away and get better? Thank you everyone for listening.
