My panic attacks are at night. I can go o bed and when I get up to go to the toilet it will suddenly hit me, I take an anti-depressant mirtazon, and it helps most of the time but twice in the last 5 years have I had real doozies. Ended up at the local hospital at 12.30. The Dr. gave me a little blue tablet which I took when I got home, once I could sleep it was over. But all of them are at night and I cannot go to talk to any one except the hospital staff. I am making a quilt and giving it to them for a raffle( a thank you for helping me). I would like to know WHY? we get them and is it only women at that certain age.Both my mum, sister and certain friends have suffered some sort of Panic attacks. Thank you for your support too. I can't sing at night will wake DH. He works.
