Gosh. I understand everything that you are saying.

I was lying down watching TV,and everything went dark,and I woke up later. It's scary when they say they can't do anything more for you.

I've been on Ativan before,and it's addictive,but not if you where just on it for a week. The imaginations can run wild though,and obsessions can make you feel afraid.

I've stood up,and sat down feeling like I was going to faint,and sometimes I feel a jolt of electricity flash through my body.

I have the pressure feelings in my head,and pain in my chest when I'm tense.

I have had a loud ringing in my left ear. I'm not sure when it started. Sometimes the ringing is a whistling sound,with 3 different pitches. It might be the seroquel. I don't know. Then the ringing goes away,then it comes back.

I understand what you are talking about,and the helpless feeling that you feel when those panics come.

When my panic attacks started,I felt like I was going to die,then I'd go into that panic zone,feeling like a gray cloud had come over me. At these type of times,I cannot think of anything good. They say it's a biochemical imbalance,and inherited from the family tree. No one understands it if they haven't been through it.

I hope that your family are giving you love,and support. This type of secure feeling of being loved will help you.

I have learned a few things that help. There are some verses in the bible that I read,and I pray for help.

My friend,my heart goes out to you in sympathy. People don't understand phobias unless they have been through them.

People that I know,and family members get this subject all mixed up. There are so many misunderstandings that happen with phobias,and trying to get understanding from people.

I have multiple anxiety problems on top of the phobias. I have OCD,and some sort of learning problem. I have depression,on top of focusing on what people are saying,and etc.

I understand. Brokenfriend
