Hi
well i had a hospital appointment yesterday which is pregnancy related (just a glucose test)
and for a couple years and stuff now i have found going out the house hard work, i have suffered anxiety and panic attacks since i was 15/16 (and im 24 now) but over the years they have got worse!
I only go out the house if i HAVE to, which is just appointments to be honest, other than that i go ageeees without going out, im lucky if once a week!! anyway my problem is my breathing. I get out of breath easily even if i take my time, but all docs have done is took a peak flow test and thats it, because that was ok they not concerned.. yet i have blood inb my mucus, and im always short of breathe, chest pains, wheezy chest, coughs etc. Im not over wieght and i dont smoke!
Anyway yesterday in the car (partner driving) on the way there which is 15 min ride, i managed it ok, i was anxious and just wanted to get there but i got there and it was ok, but coming back home it was different, i just got really breathless and panicy and just felt like i wanted to scream for help and go frantic, my heart was pounding.. the lot!! Thing is it got worse as i got nearer to home!!
My question is... do you think it was a panic attack? and i bought it on myself because 1... im out the house and im not used to it, so been anxious is constant in my mind like a natural thing to me. and 2... do you think its possible i bought it on because i was getting so anxious and wanting to get in the house soooo badly and the nearer i got the more closer i felt to been back in my comfort zone etc and i kinda shocked myself that i had managed to go to the hospital etc?
I just dont know.. i mean i just cant do amnything without been breathless, could because i have panic attacks to such a level i feel breathless all the time due to this? and my breathing can be affected 24/7? i mean IS IT even panic attacks?
Is it normal for me to feel im dying? I feel im suffering an illness, and i could die anytime. I just hate the way i feel :(
