OVERWHLEMING FEAR

[Ashleyp]

I have done so well. However today the fear of passing out just over came me and I felt so light headed, spaced out, tight chest, I just felt like I lost reality and I could pass out at any moment. It was one of the worse panic attacks I've had it literally lasted about 20min. I havmt felt so lost and out of control of reality in so long

So sorry you had a bad attack! I am glad you made it through it. You can do this! Try getting some rest and relax. Hope you feel better soon.

Just know that you are not alone, I am currently dealing with what I believe to be the same ordeal.

I'm so sorry. I pray it gets better for you. The mind can trick us into so much

So sorry to hear of such a scary and frustrating set back. Have you been able to figure out what brought on the fearful thoughts of passing out? Have you had a bad experience with passing out before?

[Ashleyp in reply to kvolm2016]

I did. I was taking this diet medicine and it bottomed out my blood pressure and was the absolute scariest moment for me.

That would definitely be terrifying Since you know that episode was all related to the diet medicine, what do you think triggered 3 days ago?
