feel faint - like mini blackout

[june]

I have a lot going on in my life at the moment - my stress levels have reached breaking point.
HAS ANYONE had the sensation
If you have banged your head, it feels as if your brain was jolted and you take a quick gasp of breath - and then the fear (adrenalin rush) have you damaged your head?

Fear Fear are you going to faint??

BUT THIS sensation happens when i am sitting watching TV or sewing.
IT IS soooo terrifying
PLEASE has anyone had this sensation????

Yes - just like someone slapped you on the head as they passed by.
Although you 'snap' out of it - the rush of fear it leaves you with is terrifying.
It is the 'not understanding what happened'? was it serious? am i ill?
I am so pleased you answered - and sorry you suffer the same thing.
I am still a bit anxious today - saying that i am always anxious lately - but more on edge today.
I hope you are feeling better.
SOOOO disappointed that no one else cared to answer - just a kind word helps.
Best wishes

This is how I feel. It's been affecting me during panic attacks all year. I feel very weak, dizzy like a mini black out...frozen. When I get like this I struggle to stay in the situation at the moment. I keep expecting myself to pass out.
