After getting past the panic atacks I have this anxious feeling all the time. It is enough to drive you crazy!!! I am told that it is the next step after getting over panic attacks but this symptom is hard to cope with cause it is ongoing. Can anyone relate or give advice? Thanks, Rosalie

I do not know if I am past the panic attacks, but I can sympathise with you about the constant low level feeling of anxiety. I find I am performing the breathing exercises every chance I get. I have read on other postings that breathing is the key to controlling the anxiousness. It seems to help. At least the anxious feeling do not develop into something stronger. I take some encouragement from your statement that this constant low intensity anxiety is a sign of improvement. I had not heard that before. Thanks.

I wanted to let you know that the statement did come from Carolyn from the Mid-West Center. She siad it is the hardest part of overcoming anxiety but you can get past it. Thank You for your help, Rosalie

Hello Rosaslie`hope you are having a good day. You was asking about the anxious feelings. How far are you into the program? I am very happy for you that you have made progress. And pat yourself on the back for that.

sometimes right after a panic attack, my body shakes and feels bad. I sweat a lot .a month ago I felt like i could not move, it felt weard and i went to the hospital it was anxiety. i went to the hospital because it was a new symptom of anxiety for me.
