Panic Attacks

I don’t know why I should suffer from Panic Attacks, I really don’t think my life is that hectic, but I can’t seem to get away from them.

Several times in the last year I have had attacks, some as simple as me getting really flustered and having headaches.  A few have had me breaking down shaking and in tears.  I can’t seem to place WHY I am getting them though.

I had one this morning because everyone in the office needed everything, instantly at the same time.  I was calm enough to let them all know I would take care of the quickly and in turn, and then returned to my office to shake and pace.

That sort of thing should not elicit this kind of reaction though.

I’d considered caffeine as a reason, for as long as I can remember I have had a can of Coke in the morning, thats it.

I have considered my high blood pressure, but that shouldn’t affect my psychological well being.  I don’t know what else might cause it.

I look up the anti-depressants on line and firstly I don’t think they are designed for occasional panic attacks, secondly I hate taking pills for things I shouldn’t have to and thirdly, the list of side effects is not good.

Perhaps I need to find some sort of holistic approach, I don’t know what else to look for.  If I go to the doctors I will end up with prescription meds, not what I wants.

Perhaps I just need a vacation?  But that is a stress in itself trying to figure out what I want to do
