			<description>I guess panic is the best motivator. I was in panic when my seo company [url]www.seocw.com[/url] was not listed in the first pages and that made me work harder. Finally i was getting some results and it motivated me to spend more time to optimize my website. i don't know about guys but panic work for me in a positive way. - seocw</description>

			<title>I cured my panic attacks without taking medications...</title>

			<description>I did see some counselors and therapists, but because I was so young I was not prescribed with anything (especially since my mother was hesitant to accept drugs as an answer).

Panic attacks were not my only problem though, so I was seeking a more conclusive solution.

I used to get very dizzy on a regular basis, as well as suddenly feel short of breath, or pains in the center of my chest (within my heart, as I have come to understand.)  These symptoms were often in combination with &quot;stitches&quot; in my side (sharp pains running through the sides, somewhat forward from the direct middle of my sides).

When I told my mom about some of these symptoms (it was ages eight through sixteen that I had them the most often) she became very concerned.  (I told her about it at length at the age of nine, I believe.)  She told me that chest pains could be very serious, and that if I ever felt them I should sit down immediately and calm my breathing.  She told me that if I didn't, it was possible that I could die (depending, of course, on what the pains meant.)

I grew up believing more and more firmly that I had a serious disease that I would die from at a young age.  Around the age of eleven my mom began to suspect I had lupus, but the doctors wouldn't credit her theory.

At the age of sixteen I told my mother that I didn't really believe I'd live past the age of twenty-seven.  The number &quot;felt like&quot; it had &quot;significance,&quot; and I believed that feeling meant I would die at that age.  Secretly I hoped that meant that I would find prince charming at that age, because after-all, that would be a much more enjoyable outcome even it meant waiting so many years for it to happen.

As it turns out, when I began to change my diet at the age of sixteen many of the symptoms began to go away.  The dizziness came less often, and the splitting headaches began to lessen, the side pains lessened.  I became encouraged to do more food research to see if I could eliminate some of my symptoms.  Today, after six years of altering my diet in stages (based on more and more continual research on a nearly daily basis for several of those years), I never randomly feel dizzy.  My heart doesn't just begin to hurt out of no where anymore.  I don't suddenly feel like I can't breath anymore.  As well as many other issues I used to have dissipating.  

This leads me to believe that many other people with &quot;panic attacks&quot; could be cured the same way I was.  I wrote more about it here: http://reallyrawraederle.blogspot.com/2010/12/article-blog-panic-attacks.html - Raederle</description>

			<description>Today marks one year since I had my last huge attack, they are manageable who knew. I found not to fight them and with medication it has worked out. I know find the small mini attacks I call them are actually a small rush when I make it through and the adrenalin kicks in.  They are now small and less then 2-5 minutes and I can actually sit in a meeting far from the door and I am ok.   - AdaptingPaul</description>

			<description>Thank you for sharing your story..the way you explained the fact that nothing seemed real made so much sense to me. I feel the same way but i never could explain the way i feel. Sometimes i would just be sitting outside and freak out bc i would feel like i was having a out of body experience and wonder what the heck am i doing and what the heck is going on and i would just freak sh*t! and you cant just tell anyone this bc they would think your crazy. but in fact were not crazy and your story has given me hope that i can get through this and so can everyone else. i would not wish panic attacks on my worse enemy.  - meliss7782</description>

			<description>Celexa and Therapy have been a lifesaver for me. Glad you are well now. I haven't had a panic attack in a long time but I am still on celexa and haven't thought about not taking it yet.  - PattyPanic</description>
