Numbing with anxiety/panic attacks?

Question

So When I have a panic attack I begin to numb on my lips back of my neck and face . Does anyone else? And what have you done to control it/ make it go away?

Answer

My hands, feet, lips, get numb. I also start to feel like I'm going to pass out. that's when I have really bad panic attacks. Unfortunately you just have to sit back and ride it out. Belly breathing helps. But don't force anything because your body will take control. I would recommend downloading the app Rootd. It has a feature that explains the science behind anxiety. Also when you feel like you're on the brink of an attack it will show you facts to help you remember what is happening. it will always pass. I hope you find peace. I can relate. ☮️

Answer

Yep it’s normal when it’s really bad. I used to get tingly lips. Thankfully mine have not been severe enough since I switched to cymbalta at 17. I used to have attacks that would last 4+ hours and I’d have to go to the hospital to get Ativan. Thankfully now I have some at home. As a kid they would be so bad that I would dry heave and one time I even vomited. I have generalized anxiety disorder.

Answer

I have anxiety but I never feel numb I just shake really bad like my legs and arm. I usually just go to the room alone and do breathing exercises. I’m sorry if this didn’t help
