Hello everyone,
I have been reading Claire Weekes book and came across a symptom that I get really intensly:
Quote:(Hope Im allowed to do this)
''The person develops a consciousness of himself-of his thoughts, actions-which bewilders, alarms and exhausts. He feels imprisoned within himself and makes the mistake of stuggling to be free, trying to force self-forgetfulness.''
This feeling/thought actually causes a panic attack, not caused by it.
Does this make sense to anyone. The feeling terrifies me, especially when its really intense.
I just dont understand Why it happens. If it was caused by panic, then surely the panic would come first!
I feel as though I need to 'jump' out of my own mind, but cant. Then I think that Im going to be trapped like this forever and it makes me panic.
Does anyone else get this. If so, can u tell me how I stop it, or should I just try to 'go with it'[Sigh...]
Thanks
