The thing about anxiety is it amazes me how it comes out of the blue sometimes. Last weekend I had a great time in terms of anxiety, I got the tube alone, went shopping alone, went out with friends, went out on tuesday for a date and generally felt like I was ok and getting back to normal.
I was pretty tired yesterday as I get tired easily especially towards the end of the week. I met a friend for a drink after work yesterday but didn't drink and went home at 7pm. As I was leaving I began to feel really dizzy. I got to the station and go thr first train that came which took me half the way home, I then had to change but I couldn't bear to wait the 15 minutes in station for the correct train which took me all the way home. I felt so wierd, like everything was unreal, I couldn't swallow. I knew I was having a panick attack. I managed to get to my mums, the attack lasted for practically 2 hours, or at least the effects of it did.
I had bad sleep and wierd vivid dreams. I managed to come to work today but my mum had to come with me. Now at work I feel out of it and strange. Everything seems to be on fast forward, I am fidgetty and hyperactive. My mum is getting the train home with me too.
Am I just having a bad day?
