Anxiety is disrupting my life. And I always think it’s something else.

I started to have panic attacks about over a month ago, I was dealing with a lot of stress because i was going to go to paramedic school. Then out of the blue my heart started to race I got tunnel vision or as I describe it as someone was pouring water down the back of my head. And my heart was racing and my hands were tingly. I had neve had something like that before. So I called 911. They did an ekg and said it was normal even though my heart was beating at 105 bpm. So I went and saw my GP and she said I was dehydrated and I needed to drink more water ( which I needed to anyways) so I began to do that. And I still felt like crap but didn’t know why. Then i had another one. And this time she told me it was anxiety and panic attacks. They did blood work and found nothing. But I’m still convinced it’s soemthing else they put me on meds but they don’t seem to be helping. I know find it hard to be at home by myself. Let alone in my own place as I’m constantly at my parents cause I feel safe here. I wish someone could help me out cause I feel so upset all the time.

Dude, first of all you are not alone. I can tell you brace yourself, but will suggest you to see a therapist. That is the best to do!

Till that time just observe those states. Do not run away from them. I'd suggest move back to your place(it is running away). These symptoms are just ways our bodies behave: fight or flight mode. Nothing off of the ordinary.

Should I tell you what horror can our body survive through?

Usually when I get strange symptoms, I just remain still, and repeat myself I am conscious. I am able to think clearly, I can move freely( so not a heart failure) just breath and it will subdue

Not what you're looking for?
