Originally posted by ndmmxiaomayi:I think mine more of panic attack than GAD. Because description of panic attack is more accurate than the description of GAD.
Number 1 never happens before. Number 2 no idea. Number 3 very familiar. My heartbeat will race for nothing, and headaches will start.Originally posted by alfagal:
Am I correct or wrong?
Panic attack: intense fear accompanied by symptoms such as a pounding heart, trembling, shortness of breath or frea of losing control or dying.
1. situationally bound panic attack: occur before or during the exposure to a particular stimuli
2. suituationally predisposed: attack occurs usually but NOT ALWAYS in the presence of the freared stimuli
3.unexpected or uncued: those attack the occur spontaneously, without warning.
is tis wat u wanted? -
Well, situation 1 and 2 are usually pple who have obsessive-complusive disorder or social phobia, which is not u in this case.Originally posted by ndmmxiaomayi:Am I correct or wrong?
since u relate more to situation 3, where ur triggers are unknown, you wild still have a diagnose closer to a GAD than any of the other disorders...
We shall wait and see wat Dr Reno has to say first.. -

Do you have any fear of open spaces, being in the crowds, or fear of being outside the home alone?Originally posted by ndmmxiaomayi:Waiting for Dr Renorenal to come in.
Do you feel much better to stay at home?
Do you have this problem of checking your house lock, car lock, gas in the stove over and over again? Or any problems with washing your hands again and again because you feel that it is dirty? -
Answer to all three questions: No.Originally posted by renorenal:Do you have any fear of open spaces, being in the crowds, or fear of being outside the home alone?

What does it mean by " Kidneys activating the vitamin D "? What is the significance of the renal function ?

Who in your family do you feel that you are very attached to?Originally posted by ndmmxiaomayi:Answer to all three questions: No.
Were you, when you were young (childhood) separated from that person that you are attached to very closely? How did you feel if this did happened in the past? -
No separation, unless you count parents going to work as separation.Originally posted by renorenal:Who in your family do you feel that you are very attached to?

As for how I felt, I felt scared. -
Hi Master, glad to hear from you againOriginally posted by Master -_-:What does it mean by " Kidneys activating the vitamin D "? What is the significance of the renal function ?
Right, vitamin D can be taken orally or it can be activated under exposure to the sun (sunbathing).
Vitamin D or better known as calciferol starts from its root of synthesis in the skin. The resulting metabolite known as cholecalciferol will make it's way to the liver to get conjugated (become water soluble). The liver will add a hydroxyl group to its 25th position making it a 25-hydroxycholecalciferol (this is basically chemistry).
Once this happen, the 25-HCC will make its way to the kidneys, and the kidneys will decide to either activate it by adding another hydroxy group to its first position, making it 1,25 - dihydroxycholecalciferol (1,25-DHCC) or making it inactive by adding it to the 24th position making it 24,25-DHCC.
The activated vitamin D will then continue on with it's function after it leaves the kidneys. One of it being aiding calcium absorption from the gut...
Once the kidney goes conked out, the ability to activate 25-HCC will not be able to work properly or might fail altogether. That is the sole reason of taking Rocaltrol (1,25-DHCC synthetic) or 1-alpha (1-HCC) for patients who have kidney failure... -
Hmmm... like one of your parents whom you feel very attached to left for overseas for a few months for some work or courses, or "touch wood" they were hospitalized for some reason for a long period of time, or they have to just go away due to work reason, leaving you alone with the other parent.Originally posted by ndmmxiaomayi:No separation, unless you count parents going to work as separation.
As for how I felt, I felt scared.
Did this ever happened to you? How else did you feel aside from being scared? -
Nope. Never went overseas to work when I am young. Neither were they hospitalized.Originally posted by renorenal:Hmmm... like one of your parents whom you feel very attached to left for overseas for a few months for some work or courses, or "touch wood" they were hospitalized for some reason for a long period of time, or they have to just go away due to work reason, leaving you alone with the other parent.

Just scared. Will be crying. After a while, will be all right because got TV to watch. (shi wan ge wei shen mo)(in english --> hundred thousand why). The TV probably distracted me away from my fright. -

Alright... let me see, a few more questions... do you noticed any of these when you have your panic attacks?
-low mood
-loss of interest in normally pleasurable activities
-decreased in appetite
-loss of weight, if yes how much (over a period of time)
-feelings of worthlessness, hopelessness or helplessness
I believe you already have poor concentration, loss of energy or fatigue, and feeling very slow in doing certain things... -
No to all conditions.Originally posted by renorenal:alfagal... where are you? Do you know what I am trying to rule out?

I think yours is more of Situational Anxiety - an effect of a stressful situation temporarily overwhelms the ability to cope. This may occur in minor situations if it brings to mind the past overwhelming stresses that you could not handle.Originally posted by ndmmxiaomayi:Cannot control. Will not know when it will come.

I don't really think that it is General Anxiety Disorder as yet, because it does not affect any part of your daily life... You can still function normally rite? -
There are more than 20 under the diagnosis of Anxiety Disorders... hahaha... but I focus more on the ones that are more relevant to you lar...Originally posted by ndmmxiaomayi:So many. -

Yeah I know... you will feel slow in decision making and feeling the urge to move voluntarily to get something done...Originally posted by ndmmxiaomayi:Can. Both body and mental functions.
But you did mention that it didn't encroach into your social or recreational life rite?
You can still go out with friends, and not staying at home all the time thinking about it right?
