Hey guys.
I've been posting frequently as I'm experiencing a lot of anxiety.
The thing is that around this time last year, a few relatives of mine passed away last year. Literally weeks apart. I was also stressed because it was during my finals period as well. I was overcomed by so much anxiety that I ended up being hospitalized after suffering a panic attack.
I had anxiety since my sophomore year of high school, but it wasn't at a point where I couldn't control it.
Anyways, I ended up spending my bday in the hospital. It's in the third week of January. As my bday is coming up, I'm getting really anxious because this past week has been absoltutely hell for me. Ive been having palps(racing, pounding, ectopics), off balance-feeling, foggy/heavy headed, muscle tension, lack of sleep, feels like im being suffocated, feeling hot and then cold, tight chested, tired and lazy(no energy) and just a feeling of doom.
This is how I was last year during my finals period and family issues and I'm scared because I really don't wanna end up in the hospital again. I'm terrified of doctors and I don't wanna spend my birthday there again. I keep on having this doomed feeling and it really scares me.
I'm gonna be 21 for god's sake. I just wanna be a normal young healthy college kid. Is that too much to ask for? Sorry for the rant but I just had to get it out.
Please tell me that I'm crazy and I won't have to spend my bday at the hospital again.
