Panic Attack, anyone?!

[moyti]

you know the movie Batman Begin. There are several quotes that relate to how you handle your panic attack or "fear." Fear is like your other self who is constantly battling the real you to becoming the dominant personality. It's just how you deal with your "other you."

Here goes...

"Fear. It was fear that killed my parents. On the far side of the world, I tasted fear in it's purest form and thought I'd conquered it. But, fear followed me home... "
Bruce Wayne

"To conquer fear, you must become fear." Henri Ducard/Ra's al Ghul

@kenecio salamat kaayo, actually cge ko research sa internet ky ako mama cge nervous breakdown suol suol lang after na stroke and enlargement of heart cya (both the same year) and she had to stay home nalang gikan sa bz lifestlye. I've read about St. John's Wort. Abi nako wala na dire sa Pilipinas ky adto raman na tubo na tanuma sa Europe or temperate countries. Naa d i sa Healthy options no? Palit nya ko sa SM. Ako gi himo pag ka karon bro ako gi pa music ang balay ky perte man mingawa dire. Mga religious songs ako gipatukar ug mga instrumental aron ma relax ako mama. Salamat bro.

Bro unsa mai ma feel nimo after mu take anang st. john's wort?

Mukalma ra gyud ka, then imo mind murag organized siya...cguro naa sad placebo effect kay once maka take nako mu kalma man ako adlaw...it's like controlled release diazepam iya effect, pero non-addictive kay herbal man. It will take 1-2 weeks nga cge ug take before nimo ma appreciate ang effect. Pero always check with your doctor first kay you see kaning St. John's Wort even herbal siya mu interact siya with other drugs, so check with your doc gyud.

Patan-awa imong mama ug mga comedy movies, mga comedy nga music kanang novelty songs, then walking walking mo around your area, sa neighborhood...and pinaka importante is TALK THERAPY - dapat mag storya2x gyud mo, especially if close mo - or have relatives and close friends come to the house mag get together, luto2x, chika2x, videoke -- daghan pwede maka relax, maka pakalimot sa sakit. Also look for the book THE SECRET naa sa National Bookstore, naa sad na siyay DVD version -- maka help gyud siya para sa positive outlook towards life.

And of course PRAYER time gyud...

naa ko ana bro. ang videoke ray wa. mangita nya bitaw ko. ug kung magic sing. bahala nani among silingan mu reclamo, ngano silay bayad hospital ig ma hospital napud balik ako mama? hehehehe. actually 2nd attack nani niya bro then religious man gud ni ako mama, ma ikogon. after ni complain amo silingan nga saba daw amo iro, mura na ikog ako mama, ang she then begins to hear voices nga ang silingan daw nag storya etc etc.. . then na pun-an sa news about sa simala monks nga nagpabadlong. Devotee baya ako mama didto then ingon ana ang news. mao jud toy naka trigger. Pero karon bro ako gipapalit ako papa ug St. John's wort pero wala pa magamit ky amo raman unta isagol sa milk makita man mag lutaw ang st. john's wort. d na nuon ron mag hasol ako mama, although she still hears voices pero wala na ang fear or mga horrible thoughts like nasunog ang simbahan, or naay bomb sa amo sala gi butang, or naa daw ko duplicate. bahala nalang ug naa cya ma hear voices karon as long as dili negative thoughts. Ang iya medicine bro ako gipang research pud, naay usa niya ka meds nga mka cause jud ug hallucination ug schizophrenic behaviour gani. Mao to wala nalang me mananghid sa doc oi, amo gi half nalang ang tablet wala namo gipahurot ug inom ang whole tablet ky basin toxic na kaayo. Iyang bp normal jud kaayo bro naa sa 110/70 to 120/80. Gusto unta ko i get rid na tanan tambal bro, drugs naa manjud side effects. Pero unsaon maintenance naman na. maayo unta ngadto ngadto maka do without meds na cya and murag 2nd chance ba nga balik sa active lifestyle dili sedentary.

prayer rajud bro ug support sa mga bro and sis sa prayer group. grabeng paka uwaw tawn namo bro ky ako mama mu insist lagi sa iyang nadungog. naabot ug panuktok sa silingan aron lang jud ma verify niya kun tinuod ba to iyang hear. even going to a certain priest to verify kun tinood ba jud nga nag communicate cla through the mind. Gahapon we went to that priest and after hearing what the priest had to say, wala na mu insist ako mama. Thankful lang pud ko sa pari nga maayo rapud ika istorya ba...nga wala gi ridicule ako mama. Ky naa baya uban taw dili makasabot sa condition sa ako mama.

Hello everyone, I noticed that daghan kaayu tao is looking for medicines to try to cope up with sudden panic attacks and emotiions na dili nila ma control ug mukalit lag kaabot. That post about fear is right, I guess thats what causes it but it seems people do not know where these fears come from or what to do with them. Im not suggesting that medication should be stopped but it would be also be advisable that together with medication, a soul search or a self-search would be recommended to discover what really is the root cause of these fears.

There is a PSI seminar coming this November and I think this can help. Im not saying this is the solution but it may help you discover and point you to a new direction and understand your fears. My girlfriend has the same situation with you guys, anxiety and panic attacks but after taking this, shes now beginning to cope better with it and begin to take control and makita na nako ang change. Please visit the facebook event to know more about it - The PSI Basic Leadership Success Seminar:

My story begun last July of this year nang mag start ung H1N1 dito country..Without the proper knowledge about this flu during that time, ang nasa isip ko parati eh it's deadly once nagkaron ka..well it's not naman talaga. Then 1 time after a long day of applying for a job and of-course ung lipas gutom tapos nakainom ng malamig kinahapunan nagkaron ako ng tonsilitis, then 1 person told me that baka daw H1N1 so I got really nervous which is talagang nerbyoso ako. Di na ako makatulog since then, I suddenly woke-up 3AM worrying too much about my tonsilitis and always thinking that it is because of H1N1 and am it great danger. Nadagdagan pa ng mga negative comments of some people around me sobrang nag alala ako and even d words of a doctor won't comfort me. Then 1 day na overdose ako, dun nag start ung panic attack or anxiety ko ( I palpitate, my feet got cold, d na ako makatulog ng maayos and too much negative thoughts are occupying my mind). There are weeks na di sya sumusumpong and then here it comes again. I didn't take meds for it and therapy or something......Reading articles about Anxiety, Panic Attacks, joining in religious activities, proper exercise in the morning, faith in GOD and also reading articles like this gave me a lot of comfort and relief after that I just observe na wala na ung panic attack ko and shortness in breathing which I observed na more on psychological kasi the more u think that u'r having a panic attack is d more na tumatagal sya. . .......

I've experienced this before. Months jud sya before nawala. In fact, naka-leave jud ko sa ako work for a month and a half while nag undergo ko treatment. Naka-pacheckup gud ko og ahat sa ako heart kay naa man koy chest pains, gi 2Decho ko nya didto ko nakibaw nga naa diay sab koy Mitral Valve Prolapse (condition sa heart but not fatal) nga nicontribute og samot sa ako anxiety disorder. Karon ang nahabilin nalang na effect sa ako anxiety disorder kay ang acid reflux which is not good by the way.

Ang nakaayo ra jud sa ako anxiety disorder kay ang Ginoo ra jud. Sige rako pray adto nga mawala ang fears sa ako kinabuhi. Basta naa lang jud kay faith sa Ginoo and you have a relationship with Jesus Christ mawala jud na imo anxiety attack. Wa na jud ko kainom og Xanor tuig na kapin. I have peace of mind na.

Ang ako meds nalang ron kay Therabloc for my palpitations due to my MVP sa heart dili tungod sa anxiety disorder.




------------->Hey there, do u have a YM? I want to know ur condition before and what kind of treatment po did u undergone? Here's my email add.: carlo_nunez33@yahoo.com

Wa ko nagpapsycho therapy kay kabaw ko ang tao di makatabang sa ing-ani nga sakit. Ako tito kay usa ka sikat nga Psychiatrist diri sa cebu ni-adto ko niya then ask syag questions ngano na ing-adto ko. Gi-tagaan ra dayon ko niyag tambal But wa na jud ko mubalik niya for sessions kay kibaw ko di sya katabang nako. Basta Ginoo ra juy makawala ana. Tuo lang mo. Godbless na to tanan tonight.

i think that happened to me twice. i'm not sure its a panic attack but i just felt like i'm being restrained, scared and anxious that i feel like i won't be able to free myself, feeling of being powerless. It felt like all these things that are happening to me right now are just an illusion and i need to get out of it but i can't. I had an accident 5 yrs ago. Maybe this could be one of the reasons.

there are a lot of factors nga maka-cause ani bro. mostly during the childhood. accident is indeed a potent factor.
