Today i had a near major panic attack, while i was on my way to school after taking a few days off (i wasn't going on this stupid trip they had planned), i suddenly developed a very warm feeling inside my chest. I was having issues breathing all the way during this journey and i think thats what might have caused it to develop into a panic attack. But does anyone else get the warm feeling while having a panic attack?

Sounds like a male version of a hot flush. Probably the panic I guess.

I had something I would describe as the same a couple of months ago. Started as a warm ball in the centre of my chest and I flew into a panic. Never happened again and I wonder if it was the start of an adrenalin rush.

Hot flushes are a typical symptom of panic.

IT was only in my chest area, it went away after a few seconds but i never usually get this, worried the hell out of me.

Nothing to worry about, the prime locations are anywhere where vasomotor neurons are stimulated - chest, neck, arms, etc. Often the chest and neck and often the face are the common sites for hot flushing.

Im still having small anxiety attacks since then, they are spaced out but i honestly don't understand why i can't control it.

i get this all the time, and focusing on it makes it worse. silly panic :)

It often takes too long to go when i try not to focus on it, which just reinforces my worries. I honestly think its only been bad lately because i stopped taking Prozac a few weeks back.
