Living with Diabetes and Lapband

Panic Attacks

This is interesting because I've had panic attacks, but I've always had a good reason for them. The first, I was trying to repel at AFROTC Camp and had one -- though I had no real height problems before -- I always figured all the stress induced throughout the 4 weeks was part of it.

I also had one when I lost my car in a parking gargage, and will admit that it led me to a bit of agrophobia, but I always linked that to the stress I was going through while my dad was dying of a terminal illness (the diabetes induced one).

Also a few associated with dentists.

So are those true panic attacks or something else?

I have known people who have had panic attacks too, and they are usually fairly level grounded people.
