In reply to panic attacks - do I have them?, posted by ricardo on February 23, 2003, at 5:18:16
It sounds to me that you are the type of
person who can benefit from treatment,
but who could also exist the rest of
your life without treatment (somewhat
lower in spirits than others however)You probably are experiencing some degree
of panic attacks - again you could benefit
from proper treatment. The fact that you
said it was like a split mind (one part of
you was completetly rational - and the other
part was freaking out) says something to
me.It can be difficult to experience what you believe
to be true, but it is possible.If you seek treatement for panic attacks then
they will most likely give you an SSRI. They
will not give you Wellbutrin as this can
make panic attacks worse. Depending on what
you say about your responce to SSRI's, they
may try some other stuff.when it comes down to it, you really need
to ask the question. Is this interfereing with
my ability to live, work, and expereience pleasure?. If so, seek treatment.Good Luck
