Absolutely! I am supprised that you didnt mention watery eyes from the pupils being so enlarged.

Have you tried wearing sunglasses. I ve notice a lot of people with anxiety love to wear realy dark sunglasses when ever possible.

But dont wory about reacting like a deer in the headlight. Thats what anxiety attacty causes to us physicaly.

it would be nice to talk to someone who has been having panic attacks like me. i feel kind of alone with this and i freak out. do you have AIM

if so, mine is jessica41481

just sharing the things you go through with yours will help me a great deal. it scared the heck out of me last night!
