panic attack or anxiety

[Breboobay]

so I came to my sisters today to watch movies and about a hour in I suddenly felt nervous light headed very anxious and unable to focus or stay calm and relaxed and I suddenly started shaking really bad and had to use the bathroom lots of times I just can’t seem to relax do this sound like a panic attack or anxiety attack?

Without a lot of insight on your relationship with your sister, I would guess this was as panic attack. Unprovoked, sudden, and severe. Unless you were watching The Conjuring, or one of the Insidious movies... That would be a whole different scenario.

hello thank you for replying my relationship with my sister is the best she’s so sweet it just happen suddenly out of no where we was watching the new movies sinners that just came out i’m guessing it could have came on because before we start to watch movies i was a little irritable because it was bored and we wasn’t doing anything could this have triggered it maybe ?

Yes, I do believe being angry at any level can lead to a panic attack. Maybe there is a way you can head it off before it has a chance to trigger one? My sister once as an adult I'm afraid, decided to lay down in the middle of public and throw a toddler type protest. I thought she was insane. But perhaps it was her way of turning a situation that was uncomfortable and out of her control into a situation that was uncomfortable for all of us, but that she had control of. We still laugh about it when we look back. I'm sure there are less embarrassing ways that would work for you. If you find one can you share it, I'll pass it on to her.
