Just laying in bed BAnG my heart starts racing then I start to panic about it now I feel like I can’t breathe , why has my heart just started racing all of a sudden? This is what makes my mind go racing. I’m so scared right now what should I do. Do u think I’m going to die feel like I’m suffocating. Honestly this is the worst thing in the world. Every panic attack I have feels so different that’s why I can’t control it because my brain thinks omg this ain’t a panic attack this is serious!!!

Hi Kaaayla,

So this is something very similar to me, as well as many in here. I am sorry you’re dealing with this! My anxiety will sometimes sneak attack me and pop out of no where, or I will start at a low level and it’ll progress throughout the day, getting worse.

Have you ever tried listening to meditation on YouTube? I find that helps center me.

Good luck!

Yh I have tried I really have and it’s not working. Do u get where ur heart races out of nowhere and u feel like u actually are getting suffocated ? I can’t calm down from them because I seriously think I’m going to die and I make myself 100x worse x

Yes, I get that too. Sometimes I’ll splash so cold water on my face or play music and focus on taking in deep inhales. Sometimes nothing works and I have to ride out the panic.

My hearts goes out to you Kaaayla. What do you think about before the panic attacks hit you? Just wondering g if some thots are triggering it. Do you listen to music? I know when I listen to music I cannot listen to the slow ones that has some sort of sorrow in it. My thing now is that I take walks to relieve the cooped up feeling. I'm still praying for you. You're still young, you have a whole lifetime ahead of you.❤
