Today, I nearly had an anxiety attack trying to sneak up on my sister to silly-string her. FML

Thats some serious backfire from something that hasn't even fired yet.

I hold that episode close to my heart, but fail to see how it's relevant.

I have real bad anxiety too, it sucks

Ah so do I, so I kinda sympathise with OP, it's really horrible when the smallest thing sets it off and you're not even sure why.

Xanax also puts you to sleep. And has terrible side of effects

30 - yeah but Xanax is commonly prescribed for anxiety disorders hence why it was brought up.

Well of course it cures anxiety getting put to sleep will cure about everything

Well, now that I know I'm not alone, I can comfortably say that I'd probably do the same thing due to my anxiety

Poker? She couldn't even creep up on her without having an attack!

#25, pretty sure that was #19's point.

I was trying to work off poker = poke her.

Just one step at a time and remember to breathe, that usually helps me when I get anxiety.

am I the only one who doesn't see how that could cause op a panic attack?

panic/anxiety is a tricky business. people can have varying levels and different triggers for it. lack of control, fear of consequence, unpleasant realizations can all be triggers. in OPs situation I would guess fear of consequence. however there are a bunch of random triggers. I get anxiety being in cars and medical buildings.

Well, I guess hi-jinks aren't your thing then, huh? :p

I don't want to laugh at your misfortune, but this made my day
