It's a long story but I will try to shorten it. LOL!
When I was pregnant with my 4 year old about 3 months in my hormones went wacky and I started having severe anxiety and panic attacks. I couldn't sleep when the anxiety kicked in so I would spend my nights surfing the internet trying to occupy my mind. I had been quilting for a few years but I wasn't very good at it so one night night I did a search for quilting and it brought me here. I was a lurked for 3 years before joining the QB. So I guess you can say I've been here for 5 years now just not as a member. :-)
I am sorry about your panic attacks. I have been through them as well. The night time ones are real bad as you can't sleep, no one to talk to except I used to annoy the nurses at the local hospital
either by phone and going to see them in person at 1-3am Some times it helped some time not. None of the medication I was on worked as I would try to sleep sitting up in the lounge room so as not to disturb DH as he just didn't understand. I found a cure or relief in getting my new kitten. She helped by just being there. I nearly lost her this week due to a snake but she is home and must be kept quiet in case she has a heart attack HAAAA No suck luck. I now have to lock her in the bathroom to stop her getting out until the Vet says it is alright. If you need to talk about your attacks PM me if you get one before 8.30pm my time and maybe we can go through it together.
