So I had another panic attack yesterday , well I suppose it was ?

Feeling as if someone was inside my chest twisting everything , I could hardly breath , weak legs , nausea, tunnel vision , heart felt like it was in a washing machine , flip flopping , skipping beats . I had just left work and was feeling yuck all day . I drove into town and I couldn’t get out of my Ute . I pulled up and bang it hit me . I took a Kalma and thought this was it . I sat there for about 15 minutes and thought you can do this . I drove back around the block , pulling up again . I then went around again and pulled up at bank , by this time it was 40 minutes . I got out of Ute and as I walked into bank my heart went into over load skipping . I’m sure my face would of said it all . But I did it . I drove home and then went to feed my horses and my heart then raced so high with that pressure back and skipping . I felt dreadful as my legs didn’t want to work . I felt yuck rest of night . Felt like I had ran a 100 k marathon . I went to bed early as still feeling really sick in the stomach . Woke at 3 am and mind was racing , so I took half Kalma . Amd now I’m yawning to get my breath . What the hell is going on ?

Please again any advice . My body is wearing down and my brain is about to die

Sounds like a panic attack.

Have you seen a doctor to rule out any heart conditions first ?

My heart is the thing that goes crazy during panic attacks as well so I understand this !

Went to dr this morning . He has put me on Zoloft . I tried this a few years back with no luck . He said if I’m still getting them in a few weeks time or get worse he sending me to a specialist . I would say he thinking anxiety

I have had every scary thing you listed during my many panic attacks. Hopefully the Zoloft will work quickly. I’m hoping the dr offered you a quick acting med in case you have another one. Good luck you will make it through this for sure❤️

Hey Jodz. If you've been checked medically, it sound like anxiety. Everything you've mentioned here is an anxiety symptom. The sooner you can accept that's what's happening the sooner you can start the road to recovery. If you haven't heard of Dr. Claire Weekes, it's time! I like her audiobooks best, but if you prefer to read, get a book by her. It will explain exactly what's going on and exactly what you need to do to heal. Hang in there. If you're still doubting that you're having anxiety you're in the worst part- it gets better from here.
