For A few months I have been suffering from Panic attacks. I was watching tv one night and all of a sudden sweaty , felt like throat was closing up , racing heart, like i was going to pass out , I am on meds and seem to be somewhat better , but had one again tonight ;*( .   Same symptoms along with dry throat  but with excessive saliva ( i know weird)  I also have acid reflux so i get weird little pains and all ....Am i alone in all of this. ?  I only worry about getting older and dying as of late....ughhh I need relief

I think alot of us have been there before! When you feel a attack coming on try to distract your self, read a book, play a game, talk to somebody on the phone, anything that takes your mind off the panic, You Might look into The Linden method, It is so Great! Hope this helps!
