I Hate Anxiety Attacks

My anxiety attacks are kind of bad at times, and I get urges to cause self pain or punch something; it takes forever for me to calm down. One day it took me from 10 PM till 10 AM one night to calm down. I've been to a shrink who suggested group therapy, but I've realized recently that there's been no reason for not being calm that I can think of. I don't know what to do.

Pain is the one thing that calms me down. Breathing exercises don't work. I scared the heck out of myself and my boyfriend (on the other end of a text). My boyfriend had a go at me at what I said while I was in a mid attack too. I said something along the lines of, "There must be something wrong with me. I can't stay calm for long..." and then said something against myself. He didn't agree with, and he said something like, "Thanks for making me feel worse. Maybe you don't need me; you need someone closer." That didn't help and made me worse, so I shouted at him via text.

I pranked him that night for a reason. He could've tried to make me laugh, but he didn't get the hint and call back. What was worse also was he took a while to text back. I couldn't get hold of anyone else, couldn't tell parents, and when I did get hold of someone he made me laugh. Then my boyfriend said something that made me go back into one, because I was obviously not completely over it.

He told me to open up. I did, but he didn't like it, so he had a go at me again. I don't blame him, but it makes me want to hold things from him. Yep, that's as bad as they get for me, hard to breathe and wanting to hurt myself.

I DID NOT COPY THIS I AM THE SAME PERSON WHO POSTED IT I JUST WANT LOTS OF PEOPLE TO ME!!! I will get to the point since June 4th 2007 I have had the urge to pee 24/7. This will not go away. I went to the doctor and she gave me antibiotics of a uti but in the test she did not see many white blood cells, though she gave me the medicine anyway. This made no improvement and now this problem is ruining my summer and my life. It is all I can think about. I will be going on vacations soon and I need to be healthy, but what do I do. It is a medical thing that is real, or is it a mental thing. It gets worse when I think about it. When I am not paying attention to it I don't notice it at all so, what do I do. I few years ago when ever I touched something I would have to say no or nothing bad or no bad stuff... as if I did not do this something bad would happen. Does this mean I have ocd. I don't know what to do so please me. WHAT DO I DO!!!!
