For me, my anxiety attacks happen a few times a day. It honestly depends where I am and the situation. If I'm at school in a class room or by myself outside, they happen more.

How frequently a person will get anxiety attacks usually depends on who they are. Some people may only get anxiety attacks a couple times a month and some might have them daily. It truly depends on how your body works.

Depends on the person honestly and how often they feel anxious and what triggers they have that can set them off into anxiety attacks. The more anxious you become the more often they will occur, the less anxious you are the less they occur. Also again depends on your triggers and how often you come in contact with them and how you handle them.

It totally depends on the person and the situations people are in. People can have 5 panic attacks a day and then not have one for a week or have 1 everyday it totally depends on the person. Internal and external factors also play a important role in a persons anxiety I feel.

Some people get them out of the blue...and some people get them constantly. It really just depends on you and how bad your anxiety is... There is absolutely nothing wrong with anxiety attacks, It's our bodies just trying to calm us down when there is no immediate danger you know? Their just really scary is all but nothing to be ashamed of by any means.

It depends on the person. They can happen any time for any reason. They aren't based on any schedule at all.

They vary a lot from person to person. Anxiety is different for everyone. For me, I get one about every 3 days.

Varies from a person to a person, in my case they are rare, but my friend has them constantly. It depends on what triggers them I guess

The Facebook "Seen" message gives me a lot of anxiety! When I see that the person has "seen" the message, but does not reply, I start thinking about all the possible reasons why they would 'ignore' me... Does anyone else feel this? If so, how do you cope?
