"The Ehlers-Danlos society has a ton of good resources for Ehlers Danlos Syndrome. You can also find a specialist EDS physio and OT to work with, and get referrals to relevant professionals. Figuring out your worst joints and using braces for them can be a life saver. It's also important to find things that work well to help your pain, such as fingerless compression gloves for **numb hands**. Don't push yourself too hard, if you are having a bad pain day then do not do things that will agitate your body as it will only make things worse for you that day."

**Numbness** in hands can be caused by various factors such as nerve compression, carpal tunnel syndrome, vitamin deficiencies, or even due to certain postures during sleep that may cut off circulation. It could also be related to conditions like bulging discs or tumors in the spine. Some people have reported numbness in their hands due to anxiety or stress. It is recommended to consult with a healthcare professional for an accurate diagnosis and treatment.

An anxiety attack is a general term that has no specific definition, different people can use it to describe different things. A panic attack is a medical term for an episode of intense anxiety accompanied by at least 4 of the following symptoms (listed below). Panic Attacks can be triggered by a specific situation(s) that cause someone anxiety, and they can also happen completely randomly with no warning. At least 4 of these symptoms are required: - Palpitations, pounding heart, or accelerated heart rate - Sweating - Trembling or shaking - Sensations of shortness of breath or smothering - A feeling of choking - Chest pain or discomfort - Nausea or abdominal distress - Feeling dizzy, unsteady, lightheaded, or faint - Feelings of unreality (derealization) or being detached from oneself (depersonalization) - Fear of losing control or going crazy - Fear of dying - Numbness or tingling sensations (**paresthesias**) - Chills or feeling too hot A panic attack can also cause additional symptoms that are not on that list, but they don’t “count” toward the 4 required symptoms. A panic attack can last a few minutes, or even for several days straight. Some people describe their panic attacks as mild, while others can have clinically-extremely-severe attacks. Panic Disorder is a condition in which a person experiences repeated panic attacks, and at least some of the attacks are completely random. It can also range from mild to extremely severe. My Panic Disorder was extremely severe for years, and has gradually become mild instead (Thank God).
