scared to go to my GP about supposed anxiety/panic attacks

[Kristopher :)]

Hi, I recently had a full blown panic attacks when i was drinking heavily (first one ever).. I was fine for about 2months after that and I started having small panic attacks that lasted a few mins. I only drink once a month but the last time i drank the next day I had a full blown panic attack again that lasted for about 2hours on and off. Even without having a panic attack now I get pins and needles, feeling of unease, tingling on face/head and I also feel a kind of burning sensation on my head (leftside) but that dosent last all the time. I have also had the feeling to cry for no reason and I really dont know why. I also get brain fog and rining in my ears that makes me feel dosconnected from reality sometimes. I am scared to go to the GP incase I have a serious problem like some of the other people have thought on the posts I have read. Is this anxiety I have??

PS - the first attack i had, i phoned 999 and they came out and told me it was a panic attack. Thanks guys!

Hi,sounds like anxiety. Maybe you react badly to alcohol, quite a lot of people do and it's nothing to worry about. Merry xmas x

Definitely sounds like anxiety. There has been lots of posts that state they have panic attacks after drinking. You may want to stay away from the alcohol.
