  1. yes...i been suffering with that for a 27 yrs if u really are serious e-mail me and i will help u


  2. Ok don't take this personally,as it may sound a little silly.But it may just work.Try gentle meditation,Tai chi chuan,Yoga or Yogic breathing.

  3. I have those when going to a new place.  I get them when I go to MGM studios.  and to different walmarts or stores other than those I am familiar with.

    You need to stick to where if familiar to you.  

    If that does not help let your doctor know so they can give you something to hep you.

  4. Don't stress, relax your brain, calm your thoughts.

  5. Panic attacks are a crippling problem, and there are a few things you can do to stop them. First of all, let's look at how you deal with a panic attack that you're having right now. What you need to do is tell yourself three things:

    1. It's just a panic attack.

    2. I'm not going to die.

    3. Just focus on breathing.

    The breathing exercise is the most important part. You want to control your breathing by counting the seconds between each deep breath and each release of that deep breath. So sit down somewhere away from the crowd and take a deep breath. Hold it for 5 seconds, then let it out over 5 more seconds, then hold it for 5 seconds, then let it out for 5 seconds. Then, move to 6 seconds, and so forth, to see how long you can make each breath last.

    Once you're through your panic attack, it would be good to go make an appoint with your doctor/physician/psychologist. Generally speaking, if a physician hears your story, they will refer you to a mental health professional who will do two things:

    1. Begin something called cognitive behavioral therapy. It sounds like your symptoms happen only in social situations or around large groups. Your mental health professional will probably start to help you see how irrational your fear of large groups is, what we call Agoraphobia.

    2. Your mental health professional may put you on something called benzodiazepines like Xanax or Alprazolam, just to stop the panic attacks that are happening now. Once those are under control they will probably try to ween you off the benzos and get you on a steady SSRI like Celexa, Paxil, Zoloft, or Prozac.

    Once they get you on that Paxil, you should be on your way to a socially acceptable future
