Is there something on your mind? There's gotta be a reason for these panic attacks...

My fh is getting that. I think its normal because many people think what if or did i do that (menu, etc) its a lot to handle maybe you just need to scale back on how much your taking on and just do what really is needed for the wedding.

I dont know. I think its probably the money.
Im an emotional wreck.When I think about my wedding day I start to cry...good cry, but cry.
When I think about everything that needs to get done I panick about the money.
Nothing directly to do with actucally marrying my fh, just the stress I guess.

yeah i dont think this is abnornmal. you are planning for one of the important days of your life...that is bound to cause some stress. i worry about the $ too, so i know how u feel. but just realize that no matter what happens it will still be the most wonderful day! things can go wrong, of course...but certain things are out of your hands. maybe you should try taking a break from the planning for a few days/a week maybe?? maybe u can just spend some quality time with yur FH and try not to think about it for a little while. just think about how happy u are that u have him and will be with him forever. That is what i try to do when i get nervous about things. It is so easy to forget about the simple things when we are freaking out over things like 'what linens should i use' and...'what is the perfect gift to get my bridesmaids'...etc...just breathe....

Well, what are you thinking about right before the panic attacks happen? Is it the planning, the wedding, or thoughts of marriage that trigger the atacks?

ETA: I don't think you're abnormal, btw. The whole idea of a wedding can be overwhelming. FM me if you want to talk!

No! There is a lot to do and you don't get a wedding-trial. It's intimidating!! Make a to-do list and cross off everything you've booked and completed!!
Or...take a break from your wedding plans, take a week off and just relax!! Go out with the girls for a night or go away with FH for a weekend.

Totally normal!

Sounds like simple anxiety. Weddings are overwhelming and there is so much to do that most brides get anxiety or panic attacks before the wedding. The idea of spending as much money as we do can be extremely sickening! I know I panic each time we go make a payment at the RH ...... rooted in the belief that we won't have enough money to pay for the balance when it is due! Or anything else for that matter!

What helps me is to just take a deep breath and try to focus on the wonderfullness of the wedding including the love and fun you are going to have that day.

HTH

Is it constantly or are you PMS'ing?? That sometimes sets us on a rollercoaster of emotions....
