[QUOTE="Stella, post: 259390, member: 6837"] How horrible for difficult child Andy. I went through a phase (about 6 months) of suffering from panic attacks. They are so frightening. I remember once I rushed myself to A&E as I was convinced I was having a heart attack. Palpatations, dry mouth and the feeling of not being able to breath was the worst. I found that carrying a bottle of water with me actually gave me comfort. As when the dry mouth came on I would just feel safe having the water with me. I also remember worrying that the attacks were something that I was going to have for the rest of my life and that would make me even more anxious. I actually started going to counselling because of the panic attacks . Being reassured that this was not something that I was going to have forever and also reading up a few books about panic attacks really helped. Also going to the doctor and being reassured that there was nothing wrong with my heart was a big relief!!!. Maybe some of these suggestions would work with difficult child? I haven't had one now in a couple of years, thank god. Does difficult child get them often?? [/QUOTE]
