hi, i am a 44 year old male,i,m very easy going and usaully nothing bothers me at all.in the last 2 weeks i have bouts of wicked panic, first started out just at work ,lately it has happend at the stores or in public places, most of the time i,m fine but everyonce in a while it hits me,i csan feel it comming on my heart starts beating wildly and i become lightheaded,and nasueas,after a short while it passes,when im home alone it never happens,my doctor,had me on meclizine at first,but after tests my inner ear was ruled out as the problem, thinking now more along the lines of a panic disorder,now taking buspirone when i need it and also taking alprazolam on a regular basis, not haveing as many attacks as i was but still have one once in a while,sucks cause i,m out of work at this point and dont know much more now than i did 2 weeks ago,was wondering if anyone else has any similar experiences,would like very much to hear from someone,not easy when nothing bothers you to all of a sudden the simplestst things bother ya , thanks
