dazed & confused
Hi, let me begin by saying I hope someone out there can relate and give me a little advice. I had a pretty traumatic year which medically after numerous tests and a surgery (finally) that healed me, left me healthy but with these kind of hard to explain , but weird little feelings throughout the day ,like little anxiety attacks. I feel scared , anxious,an overall feeling of dread. I have have no idea why. I have always been a very upbeat, happy and extremely fortunate, positive person. I'm truly blessed with a wonderful husband, 2 boys, beautiful home,so why is this happening to me? It's horrible. Please some feedback, I'm in my early 40's. I have always been a naturalist & will not take drugs. Please help! THANKS!

Have you started an exercise routine?
My mother was part of a study on anxiety attacks (she has Panic Anxiety Syndrome and Agoraphobia) and the way they induced anxiety attacks was to inject adrenaline in her.
I beg, beg, BEG you to take medication if you have to, rather than let your children see you have anxiety attacks. There is supposedly a genetic disposition to anxiety attacks, but more and more studies are showing that it is LEARNED. Don't give your children a chance to learn it; it doesn't take very long to sort out medication, and it can save your sanity.
Good luck

confused reply
hi little, thanks for the feedback, yes I have always been into fitness and work out at least 3 times a week (we have a gym in the house), I also eat very healthy for the mostpart. I know meds are not the answer for me. I think your moms situation was more extreme. My anxiety, when it happens lasts about a minute or two. I only had a real freakout in the days right before my period, thats why I'm beginning to think its more of a hormonal thing. Thanks for the input!
