panic disorder coming back after traumatic event

[DaphanyReynolds]

Hi all,

Im new to this forum stuff. I have panic disorder and have for a couple of years. I was healing it well and then I developed a pnemonia and had to stay in hospital isolation for 15 days. The whole ordeal was so traumatic and I'm still physically recovering from it but now I think my anxiety has come back full swing. Has anyone experienced a complete relapse like this after something traumatic? I'm always on the verge of an attack now after 8 months of not having one at all. I know panic stays with us but to come back so suddenly is really uncomfortable. Thank you in advance to any responses xx

Hi again Daphne;

I posted on your thread about PTSD. I mentioned some things about your trauma exacerbating the panic disorder. As I said there, getting support from your GP is a must and sooner than later is my advice.

I can't imagine what you're going through. The post traumatic responses you mentioned seem normal to a very abnormal situation. Anxiety and panic in this instant is of concern too, how brave you are to talk about it on BB.

Good luck Daphne...Dizzy xo
