Hi Everyone,
I have suffered with anxiety for many years and I am generally a stressed and anxious person though I don't suffer from panic attacks as such.
However last night I was in a car (as a passenger) when suddenly I got this feeling I was having a stroke or heart attack, I got this really strange taste in my mouth and a hot feeling started in my chest and moved down my body. I was absolutely sure I had wet myself (i hadn't), I was terrified and I thought I was going to pass out. It only lasted about a couple of minutes.
Could this all be an anxiety attack? Ive never had these feelings before and believe me Ive had virtually every panicky feeling there is!
