Panic attack?
My recent intrusive thoughts have been triggering bad panic attacks. Do you guys also get panic attacks or anxiety from your intrusive thoughts? 😣

Yes so many! The intrusive thoughts completely override my mind and I rather start to cry or panic. Usually panic attacks happen for me when we are doing enjoyable activities. I questioned medication too, but from other sources, medications seem to be less beneficial for ocd. I’m not sure tho either, but the panic attacks come on so suddenly that they are so hard to stop.
@Anais V Same! It’s like the SECOND I just want to do anything I enjoy, the thoughts ramp up 😣
Yes! My intrusive thoughts trigger panic attacks for me that’s how I found out I have OCD.
@Lilly2442! It’s awful! I almost don’t know what’s worse, the panic attacks or the intrusive thoughts themselves 😣
Yes. I had to check into a mental hospital because of them. I am on anxiety medication (Buspar and Zoloft) which is helping.
@Anonymous I think I’m going to invest in medication 😣 the panic attacks are sometimes worse than the thoughts
@Anonymous Yes... I've been having them and I'll shake uncontrollably
Just got one last night it’s terrible. Mine was from something I saw that triggered my anxiety. Do you feel like you have to recover from the panic attack the next day or days after? I feel like shit today
@Anonymous 25# Ugh yes! 😭 it’s like the panic does a number on my body and I have to recover from it 💔
@Anonymous Same my stomach and ribs are killing me the last like 5 days
Any one else deal with this? Like from the moment they wake up to the second they fall asleep, the intrusive thoughts are there?
Hello does anyone get such severe panic and anxiety that comes along with bad intrusive thoughts. Then the thoughts give you more panic because you feel you may act on them? Then I worry I’m going crazy, can anyone relate? Thank for reading
idk why this is such a recurrent thing for me , I get so scared through the day when I’m not distracted when I think about psychosis. or being put in a mental hospital that it gives me bad anxiety, one time I had a panic attack at the thought of having it 💔 I can’t pin point if it’s intrusive thoughts because it’s a fear of mine .. or not. I think this is the worst thought / fear I have
