Hi guys, I wonder if any of you could help me out.
I hear a lot about panic attacks bringing on a fear of dying - but I actualy get a fear of living when I have one. I can kind of rationalise the physical symptoms, but it's the mental ones that I can't seem to cope with.
I'm not sure how best to put it into words, but it's kind of like I've just seen the world fo what it really is and it's an unbearable place to live in. And i can't understand why no-one else can see it for what it is.
Of course, these feelings pass when the panic attack does, but they are so unbearably strong at the time that I'm sure I'm going insane.
Anyone else had experience with this?
