Default Panic attack

So sorry you are going through this. Take deep slow breaths. Close your eyes and clear your mind. Concentrate on nothing, just the nothingness. Do you have any ambian? This has helped me when I have that bad heart beat thing. Hang in there. This will pass.

Is your breathing normal? Are you anxious? Could be a panic attack but it would be best to speak to your doctor about it. S/he will be able to give you an answer fairly instantly, I would think.

I did experience slight heart poundings during the beginning of my pcs. I would be sleeping then all of a sudden I would wake up out of nowhere with my heart pounding really fast and breathing heavily. I would just to try calm myself down and eventually just go back to sleep. I was taking xanex at the time but only when needed. I tried not to take medications, instead I did Tai Chi Qigong Shabshi to focus on my breathing, calming my mind, and my panic attacks. If you look on youtube you can find some videos on how to do the 18moves, you can also put on relaxing music along with doing these exercises as well.
