I've been having panic attacks for pretty much as long as I can remember; but today I had one where the main symptoms were depersonalisation and derealisation. I experience these symptoms as a sudden need to get out whcih is a general anxious feeling that I'm well aware of, but also a huge lack of control and I'm scared but I don't know what I'm scared of. I also never feel quite right or like I'm really 'there' - I know I am there but it's almost like I'm watching everything through a glass box, even though rationally I know I'm not. Afterwards I don't remember anything from during the attack at all. The DP/DR can sometimes be the main symptom and sometimes less severe but it has been so severe it has had me crying hysterically at times. The other symptoms: chest tightening, hyperventilating, feeling dizzy/weak I can handle fine - it's when the DP/DR kick in that everything falls completely apart and I don't feel like I can breathe at all. Has anyone had attacks of DP/DR that have led to hyperventilation and crying and these being the only symptoms (no chest tightening, nothing 'typical' as such?)? These attacks are the worst, luckily today's wasn't as bad as it could've been. Any advice? xx
