I had this panic disorder once this year. It occur after i drank a cup of thick coffee. Its been long time I never drink coffee. That day i put in two table spoon of milo and three teaspoon of nescafe in my cup. I think too thick for me. then i ate two packs of groundnuts and one chocolate bar. Suddenly after three to four hours i feel my heart beat so fast at the same time felt like hard to breath.

My hands and feet become very cold. I thought i might have sign of heart attack. So i quickly call my father to fetch me to hospital I am working that day. I dont dare to drive home. While waiting, all sort of thoughts in my mind. I even compose a will and make it as background picture for my iphone. Before my father reach around 10 minutes before i felt my both arms numb, both my legs numb hardly can clench my fist and stand up. I just squat infront my office. and then my stomach cramp... feel like something pushing in and out..feel like the stomach twitch so badly that i want to vomit.

and when my father reach office. I started to talk gilberish. i dunno if he understand. I remember i told him.. " if i died please use this as the proof of my will." i have written down all saving epf and socso will be for my parent.

Then my father quickly drive me to hospital. Along the way my father ask me to breath harder and try to clench fist and release so that the heartbeat will pump... i dunno that is right or wrong i just follow.
Along the way to hospital. i took four panadols, three highblood pressure pill, two pain killers. i have high blood pressure diagnose this year too but then i never took it since i already try to change my lifestyle. daily i did my blood pressure checkup. from 140 now around 110~ 115 already.

By the time i reach hospital in emergency. They test my blood pressure is around 160. heart beat is very fast around 120. I ask doc is it i am getting heart attack. Doc says no. If i can breath hard and deep and fast it is not heart attack. I ask is it a sign of stroke doc says no cause if stroke only one part of leg or arm will be numb not both side.

Then the doc ask me about the symptoms i told the doc. Doc ask me to calm down and given me a anxiety pill. I took one. Only one. after around 15 to 20 minutes i feel better. heartbeat lower down to normal 75bps. blood pressure done down 120.

Doc advice me not to think too much. It is the sudden intense of fear that cause this panick disorder/ anxiety. It will overcome your physcology. If this is not control it will happen more and more frequent. So the cure is not too think too much bad things, dont drink too much caffeine and listen to music, think of happy things.
Then i ask doc to perform ECG to see my heart beat normal or not after the test it is normal. The Doc says cannot simply pop in medicine if not prescribe by doc. Too much pill at that day i feel so weak my body.

until now " touch wood " i only had it once. i don't want another time. The doc did give me a strips of anxiety pills. Doc says only use it when really need. Cause if took too many time you will get use to it then you will depend on this drug. this is a control drug and you cannot get it in any normal pharmacy.
