i have panic attacks too and my mom told me to go to a psychiatrist... but I don't think that it would work. I mean, i don't think that anybody could make the fear that's always in the mind ,to have an attack in the next few moments, go away...
But It I think it's a good thing to talk about it and show others that they're not alone and there are people to talk about that...
to all those people: stay strong and don't let yourself get depressed too much... :)
Hey bro! You sound just like me and been there and done it through the years, I use to freaked out real bad when i had a panic attack but over the years i was starting to control it. You just gotta keep your brain busy when you're in the panic mode, Trust me bro! There's chemical imbalanced in your brain that doesn't get enough the right cells and it causes panic attacks on some people, Turn the negatives into postives by focusing on your favorite hobby or something that you like to do. Try it!
Hey thought maybe you could check out my lastest video its under Anxiety and Panic attacks or you could just go to my page, thought maybe it might help you the same way your video helped me.
I've had them for about 6 years that I know of now.... I had a few anxiety attacks and social anxiety in h.s.... diagnosed in 2005. I hate the WHAT IFS when you're in panic mode..... when I finally get bettert, I feel crazy and I feel like I totally over exaggerated everything. I've tried so many things to get rid of it - nothing has helped.
Hope you feel better.... sorry that you've been dealing with it for 10 yrs.
I know everyone is saying thanks for making your video...but I really mean "Thank you alot", I have been suffering for years off and on too...and it does suck...but your right...watching these videos does help alot because it tells you your not alone...So thank you very much!!!
i suffer from anxiety, both depersonalization and derealization disorder, and depression. one of the main things that helps treat these things is writing songs. if anyone has the time, i made a song about anxiety, and depression called "The Last Breath of Despair". anyone interested its in my channel.
Wow you described how i felt 3 days ago coming from work ... Ive been getting them .. mine are once in a blue moon I learned how to stop mine ... I drink cold water and get cold water on my feet after that I just throw my feet up in the air and work on relaxing my breathing then im ok after 15 minutes ... Thanx

:-) Cool video dude. I have panic disorder, agoraphobia and depression too. It totally sucks just like you say! Hang on in there. If you're ever in Scotland and I can get outside we should go for a pint! :-)
@doobyboy21 I have Agoraphobia, and I had to take a plane to Tampa, FL - Baltimore, MD. Being in them huge airports, I've never had such a huge panic attack in my life. So yeah it's no fun. The plane ride was pretty relaxing but getting on, and off was terrible.

The irrational thoughts you are having are cost by lack of serotonin and you need medication. I was house band as well but Venlafaxine helped me. It is an antidepressant. Trust me I know about the running irrational thoughts I was at a point where if anyone as much as touched my neck I would go into an instant attack!!!!!!! You need to talk to a SPECIALIST about it please!!!!! It saved my life!!!! I really would like you to respond to me soooo please write back to me!!!!!
I just stumbled across this video,.. I want to say that i <3 you... I think its a wonderful idea you had, posting feelings as well as things that you try to do to relax your mind. I agree, video games (especially MMORP types) allow you to remove yourself from your current situation and transfer your mind someplace else...
hey i just wanted to thank you for posting this. i guess i really didnt know that anyone was experiencing the same thing i was. i get panic attacks at night and i hate it everything you said is exactly how i feel. my parents and friends think im faking im pretty idk anyways thank you so much...
This is a fantastic video. I am 24, I have a panic dissorder, OCD, mild paranoia and agoraphobia, and the way you explain these horrible attacks struck a chord. I think it's great having videos like this where people who have the same dissorder can feel reassured that they can get help, that they are not alone, and also that the people who don't know about this dissorder can get some real understanding about its effects. Thank you for posting this video!
I have always had anxiety all my life from when i can remember..I am usually a high strung person..Recently the last few months I have been having panic attacks out of literally no where...The 1st one I have ever had was at work..I all of a sudden felt smothered, chest tight, hard breathing,walls moving when i walked,i felt 2 inches tall, i thought i was having a heart attack...which heart attacks are known to cause the same effects,i finally went to my dr. and soon thearpy..good luck every1 xo
hey this video really helped me when i had ban panic and anxiety..i ve given up drinking, caffeine, smoking all the pills and im so much better, havent had an attack since july. keep at it mate, CBT or if you ve got any addictions deal with them . peace
By the way, I've discovered that reading something during an attack kind of helps to ease the panic. It could be anything from a book to a warning label (whatever's handy at the time). It focuses my mind elsewhere & eventually, I stop shaking & sweating & I can breathe again.
I realize that this video is a couple of years old, but I just stumbled across it, & I wanted to say that I can TOTALLY relate. You just explained everything that I go through with every single panic attack. My attacks have reached the point of agoraphobia before, & it sucks. "Terror" is a great word to describe the state of mind during an attack.
On another note, thanks so much for posting this. It's reassuring to be reminded that I'm not the only one.
hey hi its joy i badly need your help im inlove with a guys with aoraphobia i dnt knw wat tro do he push me away coz hes saying dat he wants me to be happy can u help me pls 2017376681

hey prjecktatom i hope you read this...ive been gettin them REAL bad since i was 16. i did mushrooms and had a real bad trip, its almost as if the trip unlocked that panic feeling so i get them a lot now. but just like you they come and go in cyles. im 21 now and still get them, i had one a month ago real bad and thought i was dying, my dad took me to the hospital and they did catscans on me and
hey projecktatom... i hope you read this: i have been getting REAL REAL bad panic attacks since i did mushrooms when i was 16. im 21 now and ill get them for a few months then theyll go away just like you said. i feel if i never had that bad trip i would never getthem now, its almost as if the trip unlocked the feeling of the panic attacks. i get them so bad i get tingly, my arms go numb, i turn pale and i sweat like none other. i had one a few months ago real
Yeah they suck but I've managed to control them, if it starts happening leave the area and think to yourself I'm not doing this crap. Go for a walk away from anything that might be causing it, if you have a problem sleeping go for a walk dude, in doing this you're taking control of the situation which I've always found is very self reassuring. I could not get onto a public bus for almost 2 years because of this crap, I could not sit in a classroom doing nothing as that would cause me to think...
i too have anxiety attacks, have done for the past 5 years now, but i must admit, that when you really make an effort, and push yourself through the panic, it does ease. Keep on pushing.
i use a website to blog & vlog my recovery process. check it out
Thanks for your video!I relate with you alot!I feel so trapped and then it just fuels the panic and anxiety!I wake up sick with dread,and then I think what is wrong with me?Your so right,You have to distract yourself or else you feel like your going to go nuts!I play video game too,It's a great way to take your mind off of all the stress! You seem like a really nice guy and handsome too! : ) Hang in there!
ehhh I know I hate getting panic attacks! right before bed gets me esp since I get really triggered by the sound of my own heart beat! It bugs me out, I love when I don't get a panic attack for a month cause it's peaceful but then boom I'm just chillen and suddenly I get panic. I can't rink coffee and stay far from caffine products cause they give me jitters thats trigger attacks as well. I make my self yawn alot when I'm P.Aed cause I feel that I can't take a deep enough breath to chill it
I seem to have panic attacks that don't just go for like 20 minutes, but sometimes mine last like 4 hours , & it feels like my physical body is disconnected from my mind....
I started to cry when you described what it's like to have the attacks. I just recognized myself in all the things you said. It kinda helped me a little to know that other people can get the same thoughts and feelings as me. Thank you for sharing your experience with us, and for all us who struggle with the same decease or whatever it is.
i hate panic attacks. mines lead to headache after headache. my chest feels like its goin to explode and i cant breathe. and theres like really no one u can really talk to about them
To the comment below I got diagnosed with a drug induced panic disorder as well. It's probably the scariest feeling you can possibly get. The feeling of non-stop fear and like you mentioned in the video you get this irrational thoughts that cause them to go on and on. I'm lucky to say that I haven't had one in maybe 2 months now? I've stuck to deep breathing techniques, taking my prescribed meds. Hope yours start to go away, too. It's hard living with them, i know. But things get better.
The worst part of a panic attack is the derealization and feeling like you're going crazy. But keep in mind, if you "think" you're going crazy, then you're not. If you truely are going crazy, you wouldn't know it. The derealization, on the other hand, is quite a challenge. It's like "okay, what am I supposed to do with this sensation????"
hey i've been having anxiety attacks too ever since a lot of things have happened in my life. I have a lot going on. Your video really helps me. Im glad I'm not the only one but it sucks that you have to go through that. What do you think is the best way to get through the panic and anxiety?
your not alone, i have terrible panic attacks and anxiety sometimes at really small things, so mine is really sensitive and can get set off easily, ive had it since i was eight, even agrophobia sometimes,
Thank you for this video... it really helps the rest of us out there that suffer from the same thing in almost the same way. I really needed the reassurance about the whole "i have some kind of sickness" thoughts. These vids are helping me to try to get over it!! Thanks again. Hope you are doing better!
one thing that would help is knowing that the physical symptoms experienced as a result of adrenaline rush and a real heart problem are two distinct things ... the thing I wouldn't be able to explain is why they freken come out of nowhere...
i had a disagreement with my neighbour and since then every time i hear him closing a door loud,i get a panic attack, because my mind is perceiving it as a threat.
it's terrifying.
but i am starting to get a little stronger now, and trying to face myself and my panic that i have had all my life
Sometimes i have thoughts of doing harm to myself, such as twisting my body to extreme measures, or that my brain will twist inside my head. and it makes me anxious.
I have been there, have had panic attacks for 14 years! I'm having them again after 4 years and am coping, slowly! I recommend everyone to get the DVD from HBO films called "PANIC" it is very informative. We are not alone!
The issue of panic attacks seems complicated , but the solution is simple..It takes time, though..For starters, the irrational thinking mode is reactive..Thats the first problem. What do you expect with this type of thinking.."Over-ride" panic mode with positive anchors/ "pro-active thought ", and as you feel the heebie geebies in the morning, counterattack with positive belief stytem. I havent had attacks in TWENTY years...
Belief is your greatest tool, as u get healthy results from recovery
that mode you are talking about(the what if zone/ irrational thoughts) is the reactive mode...You need to use pro-active thinking, not re-active thinking..These positive anchors will over-ride the what -if thoughts, and, "try" to gently, gently, pull away, as the heebie geebies tingle in the mornings..Its been TWENTY years since my last attack.. My mind shifts away (naturally) easily and comfortably..It is my greatest gift...Peace of mind..
I fucking hate panic attacks...it effects my sleep and everything, sometimes in the middle of the night i'd wake up with one, my fingers would feel like pins and needles. Scariest shit for a 17 yr old girl to deal with :(
Can't even have a normal life with my friends coz they think i'm mad lol .. i'm trying to get help but i know it's gonna be a long process!
i just had 1 off my worst panic attacks last night and thought i would come on youtube to see if anyone else has put storys or vids having attacks this was like my 7th one in 10years so i guess im kinda lucky compared 2 others out there and my first attack was weed related i have been off weed since and on lexapro for for 7 years i cant believe how many suffer from it compared to when i had my first attack last i truly felt i was alone and thought i was dying everyday great vid to relate 2 man
yep, its like a switch tha t goes on in my brain and i can feel the rush of blood going through my veins like electric ice and my heart feels like its gona explode, i lose my hearing, my head has a million thought going through it, mostly irrational..i know what you mean, now i'm taking some meds and it seems a bit better.. it is a motherfucker!!!!!
Try seroquel for sleep. Helps me out alot. I have alot of the same problems you do. Weed works too. But it totally makes it worse for some people... Exercise might help too. Just tire yourself out. I know this shit might not work for everyone but it helps me sometimes. peace.
i have realllllllyyy bad panic attacks as well hun, )-: they arent fun i have the same kind of inflation with them as you do and it sucks some serious giraffe abortions :[ the last time i had one i had to be sedated. and im only 14 so it really sucks, we have to keep this trnquilizer shit around the house cuz they are so bad :{
Thanks man. I've just started experiencing this all, or have just started to understand what's going on anyway. Experiencing agoraphobia for sure since Tuesday. My thoughts have been overwhelming me like mad, though even my hobbies have been bringing on irrational thoughts, which sucks. Really is so comforting knowing there are other people who deal with this.
so the thoughts bombarding you is also apart of this.. thanks i needed to knwo that. ive had so many difrent symptoms. that... i didnt know if i was still ok.. thanks.. thanks for also showing me taht im not the only one.
your video has helped me the most out of all of them. THANK YOU SO MUCH! i've been struggling ever since i was diagnosed with a horrible illness and I really thought I was alone. Everything you said was right and it comforts me. thanks for sharing! =]
I find that im always in some state of panic or anxiety. but when i have a full blown attack, all of the what-if questions are flying through my head. i find that if i go for a drive, or walk, or whatever...then the attack subsides. depending on where i have the anxiety attack depends on where im going next. for example, if im at home in my apartment and i have an attack, i want to get furthest from my apartment as possible. idk, its a very confusing and life consuming disorder.
I got something that will change your life to stop panic if your at home take a cold shower It will stop panic in its tracks and if your out in public keep one of those bags with you that keep ice froze and put ice in it and if you feel panic coming on dip your hand in the bag and take slow deep breathes while repeating to yourself it's all in my mind it's not real the cold ice will kick in heavy and stop the panic attack. You may also want to order L tryptophan and Inositol from iherb(dot)com
Hi, was looking for something funny about Agoraphobia, and it is all right heavy stuff!! but I could see your material, nice video good music(mucke we call music in berlin), keep it up with that stuff, you are a good artist, panic ?! It is feeding the vamires around you !!! breed , (bread:-) !!! ciao ciao Gugli
i know the way you are feeling because i have the same things going one everyday and im only 12 and im afraid that lifes not real or something stupied like that and it is the most scareiest thing ever! my bigest fear was storms but now when there is one happening im not scared because i am constantle thinking if mabe one day i will lose controll or i will die !!! i have been questioning life every day and it SUCKS! but remmeber jesus loves you!
to crazysk8tero1: if you are 12 and you are having these feelings you need to get some help fast. The longer you put off getting help the worse it can get. Talk to your family doctor first....he or she may refer you to a different type doctor or therapist
Hey, I have agoraphobia and panic attacks also and I wanted to tell you about a free support group/forum that has helped me a lot. It can get silly in there sometimes, but everyone there is very supportive and we all have this dang disorder.
ive had agoraphobia for about 8 years, im going on 21 in a couple of months. for me basketball helps, i guess it allows me to be agressive and release some of this anger bottled inside of me, but the problem is it only works in my backyard. at the park, its a diferent story. i start to get anxious and all these questions come to mind. what if i do something thats embaressing. or the person im guarding embaress me. so it efects how i play. people im supose to destroy, would make me look bad =(
deadman72579: weed is the last friggin thing in the world you want to be using if you have panic attacks. In many people weed was actually the cause of their first attack
@inkey2 you are exactly correct, the first when i was expiriencing anxiety i tried to smoke weed........i ended up calling the cops on myself. my chest started squeezing from anxiety and my heart started racing because of the weed and because of my anxiety. one of the worst times of my life
How are you doing now?You know the worst thing for me about having panic attacks is the feeling that i am going mad,losing my mind.They have gone from lasting 20 minutes to lasting hours now,i am so scared,you are right,they are so terrifying,nothing seems real,me,the world,it's like living in a virtual world.Have to stop now,hope you are okay....
Have you tryed passion flower,or a Valarien tincture that they sell at health food stores.both of those are good St. johns wort works good also I like the one they sell in the box at amazon(dot)com made by a company called Kira thats the company that was researched to find out St. johns wort works. You can even add L theanine to your arsenal. You could find out more about these products for yourself I used to go through the same thing maybe even worst,but i'm the best I ever been now.(exercise)
i have the same problem for one year with horibble panics attacks and negative thoughts all the time...i stay in the house all day,i stoped my work all my life has changed :(( just try to think more positive..i know its really hard but its the only way.people with that problems all feel trapped but i feel that we can get our lifes back if we help eachother!!wish the the best
Panic attacks are caused by a defficiency in inhibitive neurotransmitters including serotonin and gabba. You can alleviate this by taking an amino acid therapy of 5htp, Gabba, L-Theanine (Suntheanine) and magnesium chelate (must be chelate). You must take it consistently every day for at least 3 weeks before getting real relief. You will feal some nausea first starting out as your body begins to make serotonin again. You can take up to 1200 mg of L-Theanine a day for immediate relief.
I understand where you're coming from. I have agoraphobia and I can't even get myself to look out the effing windows until the sun goes down...I also am up all night, because for some reason the darkness feels safe. They can't see me in the dark.
The thinking becomes gradually looser, unlogic, crazy.
I don't notice at that point, let myself go.
Then there's a point, when my "logic" mind rushes in, and I realize how unlogic these thoughts were.
As i think about it now, it's maybe not the thought that's important in this kind of introspection, it's the feeling. So it's not a chain of thoughts, but a chain of feelings, but my logic mind has to dress it in thoughts.
I try to do chakra meditation but the smallest things can set me off and ruin my entire day. Its been occuring daily. Thanks for this vid. You seem cool, take care. peace
i had a really bad panic attack the other night while driving through the canyon. it felt like my mind was being sucked out of my head. i have depersonalization disorder and have to say it is much worse. i used to only have panic attacks but got pretty good at talking my way out of them as a chemical imbalance or whatever and they would subside. it's hard to do that with depersonalization without feeling like everything is just chemicals and synapses firing.
I understand too well. Considering the night-time events might suggest a metabolic disorder of some kind, or even simple hunger. Many metabolic things can cause an adrenalin rush, which agoraphobics tend to misinterpret as fear. In this case, a sense of fear may be the result...not the cause.
I'm a psychiatrist. You just solved your problem... Whenever you feel you're having one, just watch this video. If you need any help let me know! Dont forget, there is no such thing as FEAR, we create fear! and most of all, try to get your subconsious mind to block the thoughts by involving yourself into a task, this will make your brain occupied leaving no space for the Irrational thoughts ... Fearing is believing!! Contact me if in need of help. My help is and has always been free!
Simply watching this video just pulled me out of my panic attack, it removes the feeling that your going to die. Theres one thing I need to know with my particular disorder, when I have panic attacks there is nothing that happens to trigger them, every single time they come out of the blue.
I recovered from this shit!! it sucks but its been 3 years since my last one, guys you seriously need to face upto the actual attacks head on, the fear will recide, bit like being afraid of spiders if you see one and come close and eventually touch your fear goes, drugs dont work, alcohol is a no go zone!! cut out sugary foods and coffee, anyone want more help msg me!
It's true, they do pass, but when you are having one, it's so hard to be rational! You try, but your body and mind are in control and you are not. Did that make sense? Anyway.. I hate them, they are the worse thing in the world. I think the reason I am afraid of death so much is because it's something I cannot control. What happens when you die? I don't know, not for sure, that scares me! My bro Brian Farr is the lead sound advisor for Blizzard. Glad you enjoy playing WOW!
i have panic attacks take alook at my vids.I also play wow.What realm are you on?I play chamber of aspects i have a level 55 lock its a awsome game xxx:)
I know what happens when you die you either go to heaven or hell that's the only two choices you get. Well if you don't believe in God then you still go to hell regardless, which means you made your choice already. Anyways, I'm not afraid of death, I mean why should I be it's part of life and fearing is something Satan gave everybody so I try not to fear anything.
Me too, For my whole life, (since I was 13) thats been 19 yrs. It sucks. I sweat profusely when they happen. It's incredibly terrifying when they happen.
i suffer from this crap too for a few years, u said it all in the video, its fucking terryfiying. right now i didnt leave my room for weeks, anxious all day and getting attacks every fucking day.
Yep, the worste part is usually night or when I verry first wake up in the morning. It's almost like I have my morning panic attack then move on, then avout 5 to 6 I'm boned.
i'm 14 years old, and ever since i was like 11, i've been having these episodes i guess you would call them and nobody knew what they were. i would faint and everything, and people thought it was my heart because of my blood pressure. last night, i had chest pains and i couldn't breathe and my hands and face got all numb and stuff so i went to the hospital and it turns out i have been having a panic/anxiety attacks. your video really helped me with it. remember, your not alone.
Hey.How is evereything going with the attacks? So many people love your videos and were wondering how you're doing. Hope you are doing awesome. I see you like Depeche mode, i will be seeing them in Atlanta in Sep. That's going to be a big challenge cause i suffer from panic attacks as well. But i won't let it stop me :)
I have had these attacks for 1year and 4 days now and I just can seem to get rid of them at all. The breathing stuff they tell you to do all of the herbal things none of it work. I have 3 kids and I cant even seem to make it to the school functions without having a heavy attack. I feel like I have missed out on my kids lives for a year but I have been here, just my body not my full mind. I could really use some advice ANYONE PLEASE!.
Good video man. It's always good to do a self diagnosis. It seems like anxiety hits us who are the thinkers in life..the ones whose minds are constantly running. Sometimes it's a good thing though cause as much as I experience the lows I experience the highs just as much and appreciate the aesthetics of life more. It also helps keep me away from drugs and alcohol.
I'm always wanting to kill people... If anyone looks at me funny, I just wanna rip their fucking head off... maybe I don't have an anxiety problem.. perhaps just anger issues and depression.
why is it that we feel like were the only ones in the world with anxiety.. its a lonely problem . where is everyoneelse with anxiety.. we need to find eachother and create a support group.. cause we understand each others problems.. just rambling
Only had one panick attack in my life. Someone was having a go at me. I lost control of my breathing. It felt like the floor had been pulled from under my feet.
Just rushed outside to get air and lay on the collapsed.
the control is the worst. i've got bipolar disorder and i get panic attacks on my highs& my lows. it's worse when i'm in a depressive episode, the thoughts are more irrational. when mine are bad a get agoraphobia too. i stayed in my closet for three days once when my parents were outof town. that was not a high point of my life.
Amen, brother. My doctor gave me a prescription for Klonopin wafers. They're like an emergency button, dissolve quickly on your toung and interrupt all those neurons firing off in your brain. Settles you down very quickly and you can relax and sleep. I'm going to start seeing a cognitive behavioral therapist (CBT) as well to help. They say CBT is very powerful. But I recommend Klonopin wafers to short ciruit the attack. Also, try some cardio. The endorphines can leach out your anxiety.
I recall being my panic was from the fear of being embarrassed or something, because when I would panic my insides would relax and I needed to use the bathroom, and then it was panic from the fear of panic, and I never left my house.
I ended up being put in a home and on drugs, It took about 6 months to be able to go out side and to school again and a year to go to see a movie.
I've been stuck with them for 10 years myself... mine come and go, and at the moment they are well and truly here! I'm having them daily now, had one just a while ago, which is why I'm watching a few of these videos now. It sucks hugely and it doesn't feel like it's ever going to end.
Read Explaining colours to a blind man. Not only will it enlighten many as to what living with a mental illness is like, it also gives comfort to those sufferers who think there is no hope and that they are alone. It is very informative, sometimes shocking but also very funny in parts. All in all, a good read and highly recommended.
That was a really good explaination of a panic attack. I completely relate to everything you said. I also get agoraphobic and try to distract my attention like you. I used to always get on my phone and play tetris to distract myself however sometimes the more I fight it the worse it gets. What you said about the irrational thoughts and thinking you have a disease...wow...I completely relate. Thank You for posting this.
Thank you for making this, its hard to show this because not many people take this stuff seriously. I got HPPD(hallucinagen persisting perception disorder) and panic attacks from weed and salvia and some other drugs. I also have been depressed and always was kind of like this and got bullied in middle school. but even being bullied by people is NOTHING compared to being bullied by your mind. This shit is for real. I am on lexapro 10 mgs a day but i still know its there deep down.
Hey thanks for being brave and sharing your experience. I feel bette knowing that I am not alone with 4 years of panick attacks I am glad to find people that understand, and dont think I am crazy or being irrational and "pampered".
Thx for the vid man. I've been having anxiety as well for the last 15 years on and off and have been going through extremely tough times to manageable times. And you're right, it does get better. Atm I'm trying to moderate the amount of time I affix myself to video games since it seems the more I'm distracting myself the worse it gets. That's possibly an individual thing though. Any how hope all is better since it's been over a year since you vlogged this.
one of the things that trigger my panic attacks is, well, used to be weed, and any other type of drug...
its been almost 6 years for me taking my pill twice a day , cause i had a very bad first one, if i dont take the pill, my body, more than my mind , feels terrible, i am starting tocontrol my mind into thinking its nothing once it starts...
yeah, its very difficult and i feelfor all you people out there that have it, just hang on... dont let it turn into something worse
Hey man nice video, these sorts of videos do tend to help but the only thing i notice when comparing my panic attacks with others is that im starting to feel physical pain e.g chest pains, pressure type headaches, neck pain, constant shortness of breath etc i could go on. Just wondering if anyone else feels these sorts of thing?
Hey I defenietly do. I totally agree with you I get symptoms like a heart attack. It is horrible I literally feel like I am dying. Pain becomes very real. You are not alone in that.
i have panic attacks too and my mom told me to go to a psychiatrist... but I don't think that it would work. I mean, i don't think that anybody could make the fear that's always in the mind ,to have an attack in the next few moments, go away...
But It I think it's a good thing to talk about it and show others that they're not alone and there are people to talk about that...
to all those people: stay strong and don't let yourself get depressed too much... :)

Hey bro! You sound just like me and been there and done it through the years, I use to freaked out real bad when i had a panic attack but over the years i was starting to control it. You just gotta keep your brain busy when you're in the panic mode, Trust me bro! There's chemical imbalanced in your brain that doesn't get enough the right cells and it causes panic attacks on some people, Turn the negatives into postives by focusing on your favorite hobby or something that you like to do. Try it!

I've had them for about 6 years that I know of now.... I had a few anxiety attacks and social anxiety in h.s.... diagnosed in 2005. I hate the WHAT IFS when you're in panic mode..... when I finally get bettert, I feel crazy and I feel like I totally over exaggerated everything. I've tried so many things to get rid of it - nothing has helped.
Hope you feel better.... sorry that you've been dealing with it for 10 yrs.

i suffer from anxiety, both depersonalization and derealization disorder, and depression. one of the main things that helps treat these things is writing songs. if anyone has the time, i made a song about anxiety, and depression called "The Last Breath of Despair". anyone interested its in my channel.

The irrational thoughts you are having are cost by lack of serotonin and you need medication. I was house band as well but Venlafaxine helped me. It is an antidepressant. Trust me I know about the running irrational thoughts I was at a point where if anyone as much as touched my neck I would go into an instant attack!!!!!!! You need to talk to a SPECIALIST about it please!!!!! It saved my life!!!! I really would like you to respond to me soooo please write back to me!!!!!

This is a fantastic video. I am 24, I have a panic dissorder, OCD, mild paranoia and agoraphobia, and the way you explain these horrible attacks struck a chord. I think it's great having videos like this where people who have the same dissorder can feel reassured that they can get help, that they are not alone, and also that the people who don't know about this dissorder can get some real understanding about its effects. Thank you for posting this video!

By the way, I've discovered that reading something during an attack kind of helps to ease the panic. It could be anything from a book to a warning label (whatever's handy at the time). It focuses my mind elsewhere & eventually, I stop shaking & sweating & I can breathe again.

I realize that this video is a couple of years old, but I just stumbled across it, & I wanted to say that I can TOTALLY relate. You just explained everything that I go through with every single panic attack. My attacks have reached the point of agoraphobia before, & it sucks. "Terror" is a great word to describe the state of mind during an attack.
On another note, thanks so much for posting this. It's reassuring to be reminded that I'm not the only one.

Yeah they suck but I've managed to control them, if it starts happening leave the area and think to yourself I'm not doing this crap. Go for a walk away from anything that might be causing it, if you have a problem sleeping go for a walk dude, in doing this you're taking control of the situation which I've always found is very self reassuring. I could not get onto a public bus for almost 2 years because of this crap, I could not sit in a classroom doing nothing as that would cause me to think...

It bugs me out, I love when I don't get a panic attack for a month cause it's peaceful but then boom I'm just chillen and suddenly I get panic. I can't rink coffee and stay far from caffine products cause they give me jitters thats trigger attacks as well. I make my self yawn alot when I'm P.Aed cause I feel that I can't take a deep enough breath to chill it

To the comment below I got diagnosed with a drug induced panic disorder as well. It's probably the scariest feeling you can possibly get. The feeling of non-stop fear and like you mentioned in the video you get this irrational thoughts that cause them to go on and on. I'm lucky to say that I haven't had one in maybe 2 months now? I've stuck to deep breathing techniques, taking my prescribed meds. Hope yours start to go away, too. It's hard living with them, i know. But things get better.

milnusthegnome 2 years ago
The worst part of a panic attack is the derealization and feeling like you're going crazy. But keep in mind, if you "think" you're going crazy, then you're not. If you truely are going crazy, you wouldn't know it. The derealization, on the other hand, is quite a challenge. It's like "okay, what am I supposed to do with this sensation????"

nostalga44jo 2 years ago
The issue of panic attacks seems complicated , but the solution is simple..It takes time, though..For starters, the irrational thinking mode is reactive..Thats the first problem. What do you expect with this type of thinking.."Over-ride" panic mode with positive anchors/ "pro-active thought ", and as you feel the heebie geebies in the morning, counterattack with positive belief stytem. I havent had attacks in TWENTY years...
Belief is your greatest tool, as u get healthy results from recovery
nostalga44jo 2 years ago
that mode you are talking about(the what if zone/ irrational thoughts) is the reactive mode...You need to use pro-active thinking, not re-active thinking..These positive anchors will over-ride the what -if thoughts, and, "try" to gently, gently, pull away, as the heebie geebies tingle in the mornings..Its been TWENTY years since my last attack.. My mind shifts away (naturally) easily and comfortably..It is my greatest gift...Peace of mind..

I find that im always in some state of panic or anxiety. but when i have a full blown attack, all of the what-if questions are flying through my head. i find that if i go for a drive, or walk, or whatever...then the attack subsides. depending on where i have the anxiety attack depends on where im going next. for example, if im at home in my apartment and i have an attack, i want to get furthest from my apartment as possible. idk, its a very confusing and life consuming disorder.
jewelsayshi 2 years ago
I got something that will change your life to stop panic if your at home take a cold shower It will stop panic in its tracks and if your out in public keep one of those bags with you that keep ice froze and put ice in it and if you feel panic coming on dip your hand in the bag and take slow deep breathes while repeating to yourself it's all in my mind it's not real the cold ice will kick in heavy and stop the panic attack. You may also want to order L tryptophan and Inositol from iherb(dot)com

Panic attacks are caused by a defficiency in inhibitive neurotransmitters including serotonin and gabba. You can alleviate this by taking an amino acid therapy of 5htp, Gabba, L-Theanine (Suntheanine) and magnesium chelate (must be chelate). You must take it consistently every day for at least 3 weeks before getting real relief. You will feal some nausea first starting out as your body begins to make serotonin again. You can take up to 1200 mg of L-Theanine a day for immediate relief.

Do you know this?
When i get to sleep, I think about things.
The thinking becomes gradually looser, unlogic, crazy.
I don't notice at that point, let myself go.
Then there's a point, when my "logic" mind rushes in, and I realize how unlogic these thoughts were.
As i think about it now, it's maybe not the thought that's important in this kind of introspection, it's the feeling. So it's not a chain of thoughts, but a chain of feelings, but my logic mind has to dress it in thoughts.

i had a really bad panic attack the other night while driving through the canyon. it felt like my mind was being sucked out of my head. i have depersonalization disorder and have to say it is much worse. i used to only have panic attacks but got pretty good at talking my way out of them as a chemical imbalance or whatever and they would subside. it's hard to do that with depersonalization without feeling like everything is just chemicals and synapses firing.
littleflags 2 years ago
I understand too well. Considering the night-time events might suggest a metabolic disorder of some kind, or even simple hunger. Many metabolic things can cause an adrenalin rush, which agoraphobics tend to misinterpret as fear. In this case, a sense of fear may be the result...not the cause.

I'm a psychiatrist. You just solved your problem... Whenever you feel you're having one, just watch this video. If you need any help let me know! Dont forget, there is no such thing as FEAR, we create fear! and most of all, try to get your subconsious mind to block the thoughts by involving yourself into a task, this will make your brain occupied leaving no space for the Irrational thoughts ... Fearing is believing!! Contact me if in need of help. My help is and has always been free!

Simply watching this video just pulled me out of my panic attack, it removes the feeling that your going to die. Theres one thing I need to know with my particular disorder, when I have panic attacks there is nothing that happens to trigger them, every single time they come out of the blue.

I recovered from this shit!! it sucks but its been 3 years since my last one, guys you seriously need to face upto the actual attacks head on, the fear will recide, bit like being afraid of spiders if you see one and come close and eventually touch your fear goes, drugs dont work, alcohol is a no go zone!! cut out sugary foods and coffee, anyone want more help msg me!

It's true, they do pass, but when you are having one, it's so hard to be rational! You try, but your body and mind are in control and you are not. Did that make sense? Anyway.. I hate them, they are the worse thing in the world. I think the reason I am afraid of death so much is because it's something I cannot control. What happens when you die? I don't know, not for sure, that scares me! My bro Brian Farr is the lead sound advisor for Blizzard. Glad you enjoy playing WOW!

I know what happens when you die you either go to heaven or hell that's the only two choices you get. Well if you don't believe in God then you still go to hell regardless, which means you made your choice already. Anyways, I'm not afraid of death, I mean why should I be it's part of life and fearing is something Satan gave everybody so I try not to fear anything.

Hey,
i'm 14 years old, and ever since i was like 11, i've been having these episodes i guess you would call them and nobody knew what they were. i would faint and everything, and people thought it was my heart because of my blood pressure. last night, i had chest pains and i couldn't breathe and my hands and face got all numb and stuff so i went to the hospital and it turns out i have been having a panic/anxiety attacks. your video really helped me with it. remember, your not alone.
angel17849 2 years ago
Hey.How is evereything going with the attacks? So many people love your videos and were wondering how you're doing. Hope you are doing awesome. I see you like Depeche mode, i will be seeing them in Atlanta in Sep. That's going to be a big challenge cause i suffer from panic attacks as well. But i won't let it stop me :)
Take care!

I have had these attacks for 1year and 4 days now and I just can seem to get rid of them at all. The breathing stuff they tell you to do all of the herbal things none of it work. I have 3 kids and I cant even seem to make it to the school functions without having a heavy attack. I feel like I have missed out on my kids lives for a year but I have been here, just my body not my full mind. I could really use some advice ANYONE PLEASE!.

Good video man. It's always good to do a self diagnosis. It seems like anxiety hits us who are the thinkers in life..the ones whose minds are constantly running. Sometimes it's a good thing though cause as much as I experience the lows I experience the highs just as much and appreciate the aesthetics of life more. It also helps keep me away from drugs and alcohol.

I'm always wanting to kill people... If anyone looks at me funny, I just wanna rip their fucking head off... maybe I don't have an anxiety problem.. perhaps just anger issues and depression.

Only had one panick attack in my life. Someone was having a go at me. I lost control of my breathing. It felt like the floor had been pulled from under my feet.
Just rushed outside to get air and lay on the collapsed.
fredbloggs02 2 years ago
thank you for talking about this.
the control is the worst. i've got bipolar disorder and i get panic attacks on my highs& my lows. it's worse when i'm in a depressive episode, the thoughts are more irrational. when mine are bad a get agoraphobia too. i stayed in my closet for three days once when my parents were outof town. that was not a high point of my life.

Amen, brother. My doctor gave me a prescription for Klonopin wafers. They're like an emergency button, dissolve quickly on your toung and interrupt all those neurons firing off in your brain. Settles you down very quickly and you can relax and sleep. I'm going to start seeing a cognitive behavioral therapist (CBT) as well to help. They say CBT is very powerful. But I recommend Klonopin wafers to short ciruit the attack. Also, try some cardio. The endorphines can leach out your anxiety.

Fight or Flight.
I recall being my panic was from the fear of being embarrassed or something, because when I would panic my insides would relax and I needed to use the bathroom, and then it was panic from the fear of panic, and I never left my house.
I ended up being put in a home and on drugs, It took about 6 months to be able to go out side and to school again and a year to go to see a movie.

I've been stuck with them for 10 years myself... mine come and go, and at the moment they are well and truly here! I'm having them daily now, had one just a while ago, which is why I'm watching a few of these videos now. It sucks hugely and it doesn't feel like it's ever going to end.

Read Explaining colours to a blind man. Not only will it enlighten many as to what living with a mental illness is like, it also gives comfort to those sufferers who think there is no hope and that they are alone. It is very informative, sometimes shocking but also very funny in parts. All in all, a good read and highly recommended.

That was a really good explaination of a panic attack. I completely relate to everything you said. I also get agoraphobic and try to distract my attention like you. I used to always get on my phone and play tetris to distract myself however sometimes the more I fight it the worse it gets. What you said about the irrational thoughts and thinking you have a disease...wow...I completely relate. Thank You for posting this.

Thank you for making this, its hard to show this because not many people take this stuff seriously. I got HPPD(hallucinagen persisting perception disorder) and panic attacks from weed and salvia and some other drugs. I also have been depressed and always was kind of like this and got bullied in middle school. but even being bullied by people is NOTHING compared to being bullied by your mind. This shit is for real. I am on lexapro 10 mgs a day but i still know its there deep down.

Hey thanks for being brave and sharing your experience. I feel bette knowing that I am not alone with 4 years of panick attacks I am glad to find people that understand, and dont think I am crazy or being irrational and "pampered".
Angel6033 2 years ago
Thx for the vid man. I've been having anxiety as well for the last 15 years on and off and have been going through extremely tough times to manageable times. And you're right, it does get better. Atm I'm trying to moderate the amount of time I affix myself to video games since it seems the more I'm distracting myself the worse it gets. That's possibly an individual thing though. Any how hope all is better since it's been over a year since you vlogged this.

one of the things that trigger my panic attacks is, well, used to be weed, and any other type of drug...
its been almost 6 years for me taking my pill twice a day , cause i had a very bad first one, if i dont take the pill, my body, more than my mind , feels terrible, i am starting tocontrol my mind into thinking its nothing once it starts...
yeah, its very difficult and i feelfor all you people out there that have it, just hang on... dont let it turn into something worse

Hey man nice video, these sorts of videos do tend to help but the only thing i notice when comparing my panic attacks with others is that im starting to feel physical pain e.g chest pains, pressure type headaches, neck pain, constant shortness of breath etc i could go on. Just wondering if anyone else feels these sorts of thing?
carlson2306 2 years ago
Hey I defenietly do. I totally agree with you I get symptoms like a heart attack. It is horrible I literally feel like I am dying. Pain becomes very real. You are not alone in that.
