Do you suffer any anxiety attacks?

[sickkarter]

Especially when you're screamed at for something you can't control like autism or excessive talking?
Or defending your favorite shows from both your intrusive thoughts and abusers?

yes i do ! they get so bad sometimes i feel like i am having a heart attack and i have actually gone to the hospital thinking i was having a heart attack --only to be told after having test after test it was anxiety !! ugh!

And my excuse of a sister just yelled at me for being scared for my life.

[JediJohnnie]

I sympathize. I suffer from them as well. It's not fun.

[mslewis2210]

yes i ha it for years

[catchow]

I dont, but a good friend of mine does

[gsdoss]

Yes all my life and have learned to control them

[amyDAST]

Yes & it's terrible. I wish I knew how to control mine. Xanax helps but I never know when my attacks will come on & it is triggered by different situations.

my heart can beat faster, and sweat like I have broke a fever.

I did suffer a similar situation for a while because I was struggling with reasoning skills, and that's nothing unusual in anyone with autism. I had to give my brain time to relax for a while, and I think I finally reached full recovery.

[dsawan]

no

[yikes77]

More so in the past few years unfortunately.

Shame on you!

[Devarre_C]

Yes, unfortunately there are times when i do succumb into anxiety but i try my very best to always stay calm as i am a very calm person by default, so it's extremely rare that i ever go through attacks i've never had a SERIOUS attack per say but i once was on the brink of having one when i lost my first job but that was when i was alot younger and over time i saw that it wasn't a big deal after all and that failure is just a learning experience and you just have to learn from your mistakes in order to become better.
