Hello, im in my teens. Last year around the holiday season i started feeling this chest pain and it continued for a month, went to the doctor and hospital, everything was fine. Fastforward to last month, start of March, i started feeling different not like myself. Then one night, i got a panic attack. It wasn't just one, i had around 3 in a cycle and lasted about 2 hours in total. I was so scared, but a few days passed and i was fine. 2 weeks ago it started again, but this time i started getting them during the day. My heart races, chest pain, hot flashes, feel like crying, my legs shake. I get dizzy. I started getting it everyday that i started to panic even more and a negative thinking cycle happened in my head. Everyday when i wake up im scared to get another one, i ask myself if i will live like this forever, if my life will never be the same, what if my anxiety/attacks get worst. My mind wont stop. My doc refered me to a phychologist but it might take weeks to see one ): can anyone give me any advice or encouragment? I feel like im falling into a hole of hopelessness..

Hi Izzyx,
Welcome to the land of anxiety! I’ve been struggling for about a month and one thing I can tell you is it WILL get better. This WILL NOT be your life forever. I’m finally on a medication that is working for me and I really would suggest getting a therapist as well as a psychologist. If you EVER need to talk, message me. I’d love to help you through this!
Thank you. Im in my teens and im thinking about medication, but im scared of the side effects since many articles and people say it can turn teens sucidal. Any advice? Thats another thing im worried about.. thank you
