Do You Also Have Anxiety Attacks

Most of the people with anxiety attacks who are clinical tested are having a hard time breathing and shivering when they are triggered.
But I think even though we are not clinical tested, and don't experience difficulty in breathing and other symptoms of people under depression, it is okay to admit that we are under pressure and depress.
We may not be clinical tested, but what keeps nagging in our head that makes us unfocused and anxious should also be addressed. We need to be honest an confront what's bothering us, that can push us to our limit, like a bomb we might just breakdown or explode.
Do you agree, we should also need to pause and assess ourselves, confront things, and dont just brush off our hurts and pain no matter how we view it?

I'm diagnosed with anxiety but I'm not sure about the attacks. As you said, it's important to be mindful when we experience distress because awareness is the first step towards recovery. However, it's very hard when others always brush it off and tell us we're just lazy or making up excuses. I'm sure many mean well, but it doesn't help with the healing process. I admit I still struggle to understand how I feel every now and then.

Then brush them off hehehehe... In my experience I just brush those people opinions and i really don't talk to them much - and if I do it is just out of politeness. Because you know I need my peace and I don't need their unsolicited opinions.
I am more at peace when I don't talk to them and just do things on my terms, and if I fail its okay, I just focus on myself, and ask God for more strength and wisdom.

@luisadannointed Yeah, I get it. It's hard to maintain harmony with some people and follow what we believe is right, both at the same time. It's easier to be "alone" sometimes. It's in quotes because we are never truly alone.

I know that I have my up and down moments, but I have not experienced anxiety attacks and hopefully will not ever. I can say that I am strong emotionally.
I agree that everyone needs to pause for a while to think and rethink of things happening to us. We need to do that to better ourselves

Yes, you will never have one as long as you take over of your emotions... I think that is very important to always take control and that we always above our emotions.

@luisadannointed emotions are response from outside stimuli or experiences. It can be negative or positive depending on how you perceive the stimuli.
It depends on how we analyze things that sometime we react differently. That is why we should always think before we act or we say anything.

I don't have them very often, but I used to. I know how to work through them though. Last time I really had anything close was when George was in the hospital and I was unable to do anything for him.

I know everything will be fine, all we have to do is to keep on going, pray and trust God to things we cannot control.
I hope everything is well now with George. God bless you both alaways.

My husband has an anxiety disorder. Not always do people with it have depression, and not because of the pressure of things. Anxiety, like any other mental disorder, each person has different triggers that will cause a panic/anxiety attack. It can be from emotional overwhelm to a sound, word, person, location, or smell.
My middle child is triggered mainly by emotions, which is why both my husband and I are sure he is bipolar. It feeds into other mental health things but also his need to be perfect at certain things. The doctor's trigger is an anxiety that something is wrong with him. He slowly accepts that nothing is wrong with him; he says that sometimes his inner demons don't like to play nice and that he doesn't have to listen to them to feel okay.
He has found blanketing himself to be soothing and helps lessen when he has anxiety, as well as knowing his triggers and when to step back.
