Bad news- I had a panic/ anxiety attack while giving a lecture today. About halfway through, I started to feel weird and anxious, could feel the adrenalin coming. I've been feeling very stressed and anxious recently, and frequently feel a very tight chest. One other recent attack, while having a job interview!

Good news- I kept going and hardly missed a beat. I don't think the class noticed. At one point I thought I might have to stop, but I managed to truck on through.

I am worried that I will get more, as I've been panic free more or less for some years (although anxiety manifesting through the tight chest very much).


I'm going to see my GP this week I think because the stress is really getting to me, and I need some help to cope better.

Cheers,

Alex.
