Hi there,
I am new to this site.
I have had a panic disorder for the last 10 years. It was so awful and scary in the beginning years, but now it is not so bad. I am fine most of the time, but I tent to have relapses whenever life gets stressy.
I am having a whopper right now (we are buying a new house).
Anyway I think the scariest part for me is the spacy feeling I get when the anxiety is high. It makes me so scared and sad. I have 2 young children and I feel so far away from them when I feel this way.
Why do I get this. What is the reason? I struggle and struggle with why it happens.
I thought the other day maybe it is due to hyperventilation?
Could I be depriving myself of oxygen???
Sorry for the rant. Just so confused.
Jo
