Yes! Omg! It’s the worst feeling and when it first happened I went into a full blown panic attack and went to the hospital because I thought I was gonna pass out. I’ve been dealing with it better but I wish it didn’t happen at all.

I find the best way is to just try take deep breaths and do something to take your mind off it

But your definitely right it is the worst and doesn't bring on panic episodes

Thx for the advice. I will definitely try next time. Even though I hope there’s not a next time. 😩
