Out of Place

[LeoAnon]

I had a huge panic attack today and it took me two hours to calm down. It was terrifying to say the least. It's been six hours since and I just feel kind of depersonalized and emotionless. Has anybody else taken this long after an attack to feel like themselves again?

[Anxiouslisa]

Yes it has taken me this long. I feel unsettled for a long time. I think a lot of it is because I feel so disappointed and sad that anxiety keeps happening, makes me feel even worse. You are not alone

[LeoAnon in reply to Anxiouslisa]

Thankyou. That makes sense. I feel the same. I just feel kind of out of it. I don't know how to explain it.. I'm thankful I'm not alone but I'm also sorry you deal with this crap too.

[Hidden in reply to LeoAnon]

It’s hard to explain but we get it 😊

[Anxiouslisa in reply to LeoAnon]

Yep, I get it. I know it’s hard to explain. Afterwards I always feel foggy, uneasy, on edge, like I’m looking through a window watching everyone live and be “normal” and I don’t feel part of it.

[LeoAnon in reply to Anxiouslisa]

Exactly... Anxiety is a hell of a ride..

[Hidden]

Yes this is normal! Please take care of yourself 💕

[LeoAnon in reply to Agora1]

Thanks, Agora. I hope you have a decent evening. 💙

[Agora1 in reply to LeoAnon]

I'm going to go upstairs and see what Lifetime has on xx

[Hidden in reply to LeoAnon]

What show or movie have you picked?

[LeoAnon in reply to Hidden]

It's a show called "Hoarders." Lol. I like it though it interests me.

[Hidden in reply to LeoAnon]

I remember that show 😁 it is interesting LOL!

[LeoAnon in reply to Hidden]

It's so good. ☺️☺️ xx

[Agora1 in reply to LeoAnon]

A good show Anon, I watch it myself at times...Always interested in the

deep psychological reasons people develop these habits. Emotional pain

takes it's toll on each one of us differently. xx

[LeoAnon in reply to Agora1]

Indeed. I'm surprised you guys like it also. Most people say it's weird or boring. 😂

[Iammesues]

Definitely experienced this too.

[LeoAnon in reply to Iammesues]

So odd how anxiety makes us feel..

[Iammesues in reply to LeoAnon]

We have delicate souls. We hurt easily and have empathy for others. Anxiety can take over and we lose control of our thoughts

[LeoAnon in reply to Iammesues]

Very well put. Sometimes I just want to go back to the moment that made me this way and throw it away.

[Iammesues in reply to LeoAnon]

I feel conflicted about what you said about going back to the moment. I’m proud I’m more empathetic than others and I bet you are too. Our delicate souls definitely cause us hurt and sadness, but I wish others were more delicate too
