Hello everyone!
well I had my first panic attack 3 weeks ago. It was the most horrible experience EVER I really thought I was about to die. My whole body went numb and my vision got blurry my sister called 911 and the ambulance arrived in what seemed forever. They got mad because they said I was exaggerating and that it was only a panic attack but how in the world was I supposed to know that!
Since then I constantly have panic attacks sometimes even 3 a day. I dont know what to do anymore it feels as if I have reached my limit. At first the attacks would only make my heart beat super fast and my blood pressure would rise. During the attacks my BP would get to 190/110 and my pulse to 120! Now the attacks have changed my BP still goes up and my heart beats quite fast but there is also numbness included. The back of my head goes numb and my face feels stiff. I have trouble speaking when im feeling like this it is really uncomfortable. Im only 19 years old but I had to drop out of college due to the fact that I cant be in one place for too long! I spend all day long walking around outside trying to relax. I dont eat with my family anymore and I dont really talk much either. I used to be the most talkative person in my family.
Speaking about family well they used to be very supportive but after they found out that it is a "mental"thing they get mad every time I get another one. I know I stress them out and it makes me sad because I really cant control this even though im supposed to be able to according to them. Last night the numbness lasted 8 hours until I knocked out at 3AM because I couldnt take it anymore.
I really want my life back, I want to be the happy me I used to be please help me I feel like im going crazy. Hearing about anyone's experience with these attacks will be of much help because I feel like im alone in this world. I will stop typing now because im getting teary eyes but I hope I can get some answers. Thank you so much!
oh by the way has anyone tried those programs such as Panic Away and Linden Method? I was thinking about buying one but im not sure if they are efficient.
