I'll just copy paste what I wrote before on yahoo answers..
1st.
I'm 18 yrs old male. I first had my full blown anxiety attack back in February 2006. That was the lowest point of my life, I've developed what I believed to be 'Generalized Anxiety Disorder', 'Panic Disorder', and 'Depression', which I guess is a normal mental illness chain to have. My GAD develops to a Panic Disorder, and my PD develops to depression. Sometimes I get very happy, sometimes I feel very sad and hopeless. That happened for about the first 5 months of my first getting panic. The feeling went away somehow because I did a lot of internet research and they reassured me that panic can be very treatable and 'cured'. Just last night, I had a full blown anxiety attack which still lasts until this afternoon. I feel very hopeless and suicidal now..because I think PD is a vicious cycle that never ends..
But can I get help from this? Or will I be stuck like this for the rest of my life? Please help I'm at my lowest point in my life once again.

Is it normal to have terribly negative thoughts while having an anxiety/panic attack? I keep thinking pessimistically, and I just feel like I'm never going to heal from this. I'm 18 y.o male and I had Panic for about 2 years now, on and off. It was on for about 5 months when I first got my panic attack, it disappeared for a while and I only had mild anxiety attacks but just last night I got another full blown.
I thought I was doing so good.. I was so hopeful that I'm going to recover from this.. but now i'm having anxiety again and I just think VERY negatively.. I am very hopeless and feel like giving up..
Can panic attack be cured or can I get rid of it for a long time? please help me guys..I really need someone to comfort me..

Please help me guys...I have fought this 2 years ago and I was panic free for 1 year +. Now it's come back again and I find it very hard to fight it this time (Idk if I'm feeling like this because I have the panic or because I really am hopeless). Its hard for me to fight it again because I thought I was already panic free and that it wont come back to me again.. Knowing that it HAS come back and will haunt me again terrifies me.. and I did internet research and some people have success stories, while some last more than 5 yrs + (Which the thought itself scares the hell out of me)
Please.. I'm too young for this.. I have a weak heart.. I hate mental illness.. God forbids but i'd rather have physical illness than this..
Anyone can relate?
