Hello Dear Chaudharym,

I am really sorry to hear that you’re having an anxiety attack....I have them and know how frightening they can be..

Do you know what triggered it off..or did it just flare up for no reason....

I am here if you feel to talk..I really hope Dear Chaudharym, that it has passed and your feeling better...

You are not alone..so many people on the forums have struggled with anxiety attacks....and I’m sure some will pop in to talk to you...

Please talk here whenever you feel up to it..

My kindest and caring thoughts..

Grandy..
