I have never heard of "pseudoepilepsy". I had panic attacks very often several years ago, no matter to how i felt, at any time, even waking up with attacks during the night. Are you in therapy? Thats one important thing. Also , you can talk to your doc about yourquestion.  I tried to get SSI when I was mentally incapable of working but since I admited to drinking any alcohol my lawyer said there was no way. That was when I had panic attack problems for about 2 years but i have been having mental problems since i was early teens.btw, Im wondering what pseudoepilepsy means? I thought epilepsy is seisures? About the panic attacks , theres some good books about understanding them, of course Dr.Phils books are a must have, but I liked: "Living with Anxiety" by Bob MOntgomery and Laurel Morris. What helped me the most besides the immediate effects of Yoga or excercise, was knowing and understanding what  an attack is and the it is a flight or fight natural reaction in your body , remember to breathe through the attack, and feeling your body and finding what works for you , what makes you feel better.   :) 

Hello, my boyfriend was post tramic stress disorder. He has suffered greatly with panic attacks. He is on SSI and has been for a while. He trying to work on this disorder by using some self help books. He is getting bit better each year. He said SSi is stricter now but if you get a lawyer that might help.  What are you doing if I might ask to help with your disorder.  I see the fear it cause my BF and the hell he is going through but we take it one step at a time, good luck with SSI
