[tri-med] Re: Panic attacks

Pam:  
 
I think those that study in this area are just more aware.  My daughter just 
started her psych rotation in nursing school.  She is on an adolencense wing of 
a private center.  She was amazed at how many of the same things she went 
thourgh as a teen but never had a name for it.  Then as weeks went by, she said 
she even felt somewhat depressed.  She thinks it was studying and dealing with 
various teens and learning symptoms.  It's like parents of special needs 
kids--we have our own names for the odd/different things our kids do and then 
years later someone comes and puts a name on it. 
Personally, I think there are pros and cons to "knowledge" . . . (smile)

the irony is i take psych, social work, etc and it is a big part of my

better than to blame myself, but that still does not stop me. i read one 
theory which appealed to me- that people who are prone to anxiety are more 
sensitive to bodily functions like increased heart rate, respiration and 
other symptoms of panic.
