[QUOTE="totoro, post: 205368, member: 3155"] K is diagnosis'd with ADHD combo type, I don't now if she really has it or if she just has ADHD like symptoms that go with her BiPolar (BP), which is what her psychiatrist1 thought. She can sit still and focus, when she is stable. When she is not stable and manic she has racing thoughts and can not sit still. When she is anxious, you can hear it in her breathing, her breath gets shallow, and quick. Like rapid fire little breaths. She is very flighty and quick. Scares fast, will get upset over simple things easy. For example she feels like she can't do things, like brush her teeth. She will scream, "I can't" but it is an anxious frustrated way... overwhelmed easy. Runs away and hides a lot. Panic That is anxiety for us. For me anxiety is a feeling of overwhelmed, racing heart, caving in chest, deep shallow breathes, everything is just too much. Panic. [/QUOTE]
