Diane, thanks for the explanation about the desenitization-makes sense, I am a worrier and sometimes it does me no good to think ahead for a plan cuz that alone cause panic-like having to drove thru a tunnel soon. Other times i am better if I have a plan-I can't win for losing. But I took somebodys great idea about couting cars or by 3's etc. seemed to help. I am thinking about looking for a doctor who specializez in PA, as oppsed to the "conselor" I have now.

We thank you for sharing!
As always, it is a good idea to check with your doctor or pharmacist before trying something new and receiving information on dosages and side effects.

suezqo,
About the desensitization - I'll try to explain it (and if someone can do a better job, please feel free to jump in and correct me). Basically, you try to practise giving yourself the symptoms of panic attacks and anxiety in order to help you become less sensitive to them when an actual attack occurs. For example, you get dizzy when you have a panic attack. Think about how anxious/panic-y you feel when that happens. Now think of an activity you can do in a safe environment to simulate the same 'dizzy' feeling (i.e.: for me, spinning fast while sitting in an office chair for 30 seconds to a minute). Think about spinning in the chair and imagine yourself doing it, then rate how anxious you think you will feel before, during and after doing it. Then actually spin in the chair until you feel dizzy. Experience the 'symptom'. Now compare how anxious you really felt before, during and after in relation to how you thought you would feel before the exercise. What you're trying to do is decrease your ratings over time with practise so that when you experience being dizzy in a panic attack, you are less sensitive to it because you have 'survived' it before and you know it goes away eventually. Hope this helps.

Diane-
never heard of it, and I have done a lot of research. Will you explain. Also what is the "desensitization" you mentioned in your introduction post? interesting
Has anyone here tried the equilib vitamin therapy? I have found that it really helps me out in that I feel detached/depersonalized less since I have started. Just curious if anyone else has had success with this.
Dianne :)
