i just got back from my councelser and have found out that i am suffering with panic attacks along with depression.
i told him that i have to blame half of my panic attacks on my headaches. when i feel that im getting a headache i panic that im not going to get the meds. into myself in enough time and panic just because i know what is going to happen to me. i do try to practise what i call bio feedback while im haveing a headache. if i dont try to remaine calm while haveing a headache that beast will always win.
does anyone else get panic attacks and do you find that it contrubutes to your headaches? also, besides taking meds. for panic attacks what can you your self do to keep them under controll? im taking paxil now but i also take so many other meds for my headaches that im really starting to get woried about taking so may differant meds. on a daily basses.
thanks all
