Embarassing :(

[WiwerGoch]

It's really embarassing when I have a panic attack I had a really bad one on Monday in school. It came from nowhere - usually I feel when they'll come, therefore I can control them. But I wasn't prepared for this one. I kind of froze, closed my eyes and started trembling. My friend went to get a teacher - who just told me to sit down while she carried on with her work. I told my friend that I felt faint (but I doubt that she believed me because I went really red instead of pale) - I was too embarassed to tell her the truth. Now I'm scared to go to school every day

Panic attacks feel so awful, uncontrollable and so are hard to explain to people who have never had them. I suggest that you talk to your friend about it, they are fairly common knowledge these days. I would also suggest you talk to a counselor at school about it so that teachers etc are aware, you wouldn't be the only one
