Hey how have you all been???
I thought I got rid of panic attacks for good but looks like they are back :mad:
I'm experiencing different symptoms and thoughts what may not just be panic attacks but I will let you be the judge of this...
First of all it started when I had a full blown panic attack about a month ago, you know the typical 'im not breathing enough' my muscles in my chest and under my chest are all tense' well that is when i got my self to the hospital even though the paramedic said to me he is happy for me to go home if I wanted, turns out they said go home and go see your doctor about SBT?? or something on the lines of this.
So it stopped for a while, I put off seeing somebody professional but in the meantime theres a few things what are setting these panics off
If i am on the bus for instance, i will feel like i cant get enough air and am feared I will have a panic attack on the bus, somehow I am not feared alot for my life, its the fear of having a panic attack and getting my life in a mess, again!
Secondly is shopping in a supermarket, worse when I am in a cue I feel like I can't hardly breath, it seems difficult.
Funny enough as much as I feel like I can't breath enough I can still take a big deep breath and out but it feels all tense.. is this normal? well for somebody with an anxiety panic condition.
My biggest problem is fearing a panic attack, and everytime I think of my breathing it seems to tense up, but when I don't think about I don't seem to notice it, no matter how hard I try to say ' its okay, there's nothing wrong with you, your breathing is fine' doesn't seem to work as I always have that doubt in my head that there is a problem because I am trying to reassure my self, sounds crazy I know.
The tightness, tension is a big problem that gives me the thought that I can not hardly breath, it does not get to the stage where I am like panting but it's like my breathing has been cut a little, like if you would feel chesty with a cold, but I have no cold.. if that makes sense.
What should I do?? Go speak to somebody professional? Can somebody please tell me this is part of anxiety and panic's.. i know your not a doctor but iv had tests on my heart and paramedics have listened to my lungs and so on, everytime i have seen a dr or hospital they send me home. Yet i cant get it into my thick head im okay... :roflmao: (youve gotta laugh sometimes lol)
