Reading another thread made me think of something I've been meaning to post on here. I have had anxiety attacks for awhile now. It's better now than when I was younger. I actually had one today, the first time in about 3 or 4 months. When I get one, I get this horrid feeling that I'm fixing to die. I start feeling like any moment the room will turn black and I will go blind. Sometimes I start shaking and feel as though I will pass out. They last for about 5, but I feel ill and weak and tired for maybe an hour or so afterwards and I usually have to take a nap to get back on track. Does anyone else suffer from these attacks? What do you do for it?

And also, can hormones be the cause or a cause of anxiety?

Yes. I have suffered with anxiety attacks and pretty much the way you described. I would get so keyed up and it would build until it felt like I was going to die. I haven't had one for awhile and I really don't know why they have decreased in frequency but I'm not complaining. :)

 

If I ever have another one it will be to soon.

I think it's nerves and events in our lives that cause anxiety.
