Because its symptoms may mimic a variety of medical conditions, panic disorder frequently goes undiagnosed.

Dee's Haven Of Hope Report of her personal struggle with panic disorder and anxiety, full of information, help and hope for recovery. http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Valley/2669
Extractions: I still have panic disorder, I still have panic attacks occasionally, I still avoid things. So what's different? The difference is in how I think!! Before I was full of "what ifs" and "why me's". I had to learn to think differently. I had to learn to say "so what if" and "why not me". It wasn't an easy lesson to learn, but once I accepted this simple fact, my life began to change. One truth I have learned from living with PD is....I CAN CHOOSE HOW I FEEL BY HOW I REACT TO THINGS. I can't control how other people act toward me or how they treat me, but I can control how I react to them. Realizing that I have a choice empowers me and is very freeing.....I am no longer a victim. This was key in my beginning the journey toward recovery.

Extractions: More Disorders Bipolar disorder, also known as manic-depressive illness, is a brain disorder that causes unusual shifts in a person's mood, energy, and ability to function. Different from the normal ups and downs that everyone goes through, the symptoms of bipolar disorder are severe. They can result in damaged relationships, poor job or school performance, and even suicide. But there is good news: bipolar disorder can be treated, and people with this illness can lead full and productive lives. More than 2 million American adults, or about 1 percent of the population age 18 and older in any given year, have bipolar disorder. Bipolar disorder typically develops in late adolescence or early adulthood. However, some people have their first symptoms during childhood, and some develop them late in life. It is often not recognized as an illness, and people may suffer for years before it is properly diagnosed and treated. Like diabetes or heart disease, bipolar disorder is a long-term illness that must be carefully managed throughout a person's life. "Manic-depression distorts moods and thoughts, incites dreadful behaviors, destroys the basis of rational thought, and too often erodes the desire and will to live. It is an illness that is biological in its origins, yet one that feels psychological in the experience of it; an illness that is unique in conferring advantage and pleasure, yet one that brings in its wake almost unendurable suffering and, not infrequently, suicide.

Extractions: Psychiatrist, Specializing in the treatment of Anxiety, Panic, Depression, OCD About 50 million Americans suffer from one form or another of these problems. It is becoming increasingly clear that these are caused by chemical imbalances in the brain, triggered by genetic factors and stresses in life. Proper diagnosis and detection of the chemicals involved in each case is crucial in the successful treatment of them. This is accomplished by obtaining a history, performing a diagnostic evaluation, and ordering some tests - in appropriate cases. Antidepressant medications are the most effective treatment for these problems along with some supportive therapy. Out of the two dozen antidepressants available today, each one of them is specific for particular chemicals involved in the case. So it is highly important to know the proper diagnosis and the chemicals involved in these cases, in order to provide the right treatment with the least side effects and/or no side effects. options "The Many Faces of Depression".
