I'm a fitness fanatic i'm in the gym I also do martial arts but my panic attacks are getting in the way with my fitness my martial arts my life.This is what happens to me. I could be sitting anywhere and I cant breathe I just cant catch my breathe it feels like I cant get enough oxygen in which then puts me in a state of more panic because I keep trying to get more breathe in my lungs but I just cant. When I work out and I exhaust myslef again I cant breathe or take a full breathe and it puts me in this panic. Now this is what happens when I get one,I get very shaky my voice gets very shallow and I dont want to talk,it has to be very quite I cant be yelled at or talked to in a highly manner way,my body changes its weird. I got hurt very bad at work in 2005 and thats when it started after all the surgeries and pain medication. Sometimes after I take a pain pill I will have a attack and then I have to take my xanax but sometimes that doesnt work and I have to call the ambulance to take me to the ER where they have to shoot 3-4 cc of ativan and then I get relaxed or fall asleep then i'm fine.Tonight I decided to kick box at home after 5 minutes of me kicking the bag I got a attack and couldnt breathe and my wife has to hold my hand and sometimes I can walk these off with her helping me after I take 1MG or more xanax. Tonight I was able to walk it off with my wife and little daughter holding my hand. My little daughter holds so tight because she knows I get these and is so helpful.Please help. I'm a big muscular guy,I have no cardio because of these panic attacks I cant run because I cant get enough air I gas so easy aka no cardio. Ive had blood work heart tests and nothing wrong. I saw the list of side affects I have a bunch of these. What can I do. Am I to heavy in my body weight,is it my pain meds since ive been on them since 2005 I just dont know anymore.Anyone help
