panic attack symptoms?
i forgot to mention in my lasst bit that i am on prozac for the panic attacks. what i want to know is if anyone has irregular heartbeats with em or just palpitations? Sometimes my heart skips irregular beats for about 10-15 beats and then returns to normal once the attack is over. that is what is really worrying me. Thanks
Oh yes - completely normal stuff. The heart seems to "stop and rest". Make sure you get plenty of magnesium in your diet - that helps nerves and hearts quite a lot. Magnesium is one of those minerals which are very important to life, but we burn up a lot with anxiety problems.
The NOW supplement company makes a good magnesium pill with some calcium, vitamin D and zinc. Also might want to try 1000 mgs of taurine a day as well. That’s an amino acid which is also soothing for nerves and hearts.
They are callingl this "depression" these days - and a new treatment for depression is the use of massive doses of vitamin D. Ask your doctor about that. I’ve heard good things about it.
Anxiety and depression are all about "loss of control" - or being "out of control". It often comes to the young adult as they leave childhood and step out into adulthood. There are many unknowns in adulthood. And the trick is to build a life where you can be content and in control.
