I don’t know what the symptoms are of an anxiety attack, but I think I might of had one. Last night, I was lying awake in bed, unable to fall asleep. My heart started racing so fast, and I had difficulty breathing. It felt like it was literally hitting my rib cage it was pounding so hard. It hurt like crazy. I then became very dizzy, and then I felt very tense. I started to cry because it didn’t stop. I tried taking deep breaths, but it didn’t help. I started to feel better about 3 hours later, and eventually got some sleep.

This isn’t the first time this has happened. Normally it happens at night, about once a week. But today, I was sitting in class and my heart rate began to speed up and I was short on a breath. Also, I have developed a habit of yanking out my hair, which people say relates to this. Was this an anxiety attack? How can I control them?
I have a lot going on right now with tests and what not, so is it stress related?

I had an anxiety attack today?

Please help, idk what’s happening to me.Ever since I entered high school I’ve had a hard time around people. And it’s just gotten WORSE.It used to be that I was only self concious at school, but now it’s ANYWHERE where there are lots of people are.Now if i just THINK people are staring at me, I get my nervous twitches. This NEVER happens at home! And today my teacher was calling on students and I remember thinking”i hope she doesn’t call on me”(because ppl will stare at me- which i hate) and just thinking that got my heart beating fast.Well she did call on me and I had to read. The whole time I was reading my heart was beating at the fastest it’s ever has and I could hardly breathe.I was scared that I was going to pass out while reading (is this POSSIBLE?) I felt like my heart was going to jump out of my chest it was beating so fast.
My guess isthat I had an anxiety attack. What should I do to prevent them? I know that this situation (the whole reading thing) isgoingto come up again!

Is It An Anxiety Attack?

♥|Dreams of Dragon’s Fire|♥ asked:


I the last couple of years, I’ve been having a problem that is somewhat difficult to describe. I will do my best..

In small spaces I get very…anxious. There are times when I (irrationally) feel trapped (wearing a jacket in the car, especially if it’s zipped; sitting in the back seat of the car, in between my two brothers; and time I can’t move my elbows/arms; wearing tight shirts; in excessive heat.
The symptoms I get are anxiousness, feeling of helplessness, feeling like I’m just stuck and will never get out, general extreme discomfort, and possibly a slightly increased heart rate. I would say that I come pretty close to a state of general panic. Also, I get EXTREMELY annoyed if anybody talks to me during this time.

So is this an anxiety attack, or something else?
Should I see a doctor? If so, what kind (physical doctor or therapist)?

Thanks.

What is an anxiety and panic attack?

A panic attack is a sudden feeling of fear that can happen without any warning.  It can occur at any time, even during relaxation or when you’re asleep.  Usually, the fear that the person experiences during a panic attack is unrelated and not in proportion to the situation and the true happenings around them.

Panic attacks last for about ten minutes, or its symptoms could last longer.  Generally, those that have experienced panic attacks more than once are at greater risk for Panic Disorder, or repeated panic attacks.

Symptoms of a Panic Attack

There are several signs of a panic attack.  During a panic attack, the sufferer experiences several scary sensations like dizzy spells leading to panic, racing heart with tingling sensations on left arm, tightness in throat and chest, shortness of breath, obsessive worries and unwanted thoughts, and the overwhelming fear that something horrible is about to happen.

If you have experienced these symptoms before, then don’t fret.  There are many ways that will allow you to break free from these unwanted sensations.  Read on to find out how.

How You Can Free Yourself From Another Panic Attack

Let Go of The Fear – First, learn to break the fear of having another panic attack.  Usually, the foundation of a future panic attack is already laid even hours before you experience the actual one.  In fact, your anticipation of the panic attack starts the wave cycle of anxiety.  With just the slightest trigger, the panic attack can be developed into full motion.

When an individual experiences a panic attack for the first time, the experience could be so impacting, to the point that it marks the person’s psyche.  From there, the person will then continue to develop an unhealthy fear of having yet another panic attack.

Basing from this, what you can do is stop fearing the thought of another panic attack.  Stop it even before it begins.  Learn to stop fearing it. Still confused?

Don’t worry.  There are many e-books available that give you a step-by-step guide on newly developed techniques that will effectively get rid of that fear, so you will never have to experience another panic attack again.  You can even read the testimonials by other users to guide you in the purchasing process.  In fact, to further assure you of its effectiveness, you should choose an e-book that has a satisfaction guaranteed program.

Summing it up, you can do something about panic attacks.  You don’t have to trouble yourself if you have experienced an anxiety and panic attack.  There are already many techniques from which you can choose from, that will guide you in finally getting rid of your panic attacks.

Friend problem that’s giving me an anxiety attack? Help?

Monday, November 2nd, 2009


I have social anxiety disorder and I had an anxiety attack because one of my “friends”, who also happens to be a girl I like and havent’ been talking to for several weeks, texted me asking if I could take her work shift (we work at the same place) tomorrow. I really don’t want to talk to her after she reallly made me feel bad a few weeks ago, so I said “OK” i could take her work shift, just to be nice. This probably sounds so stupid….but I’m really worried about why she felt like contacting me again since we haven’t been talking. She could have called someone else to work for her. Could she be trying to start talking to me again? And this just happened to be her “icebreaker” so to say? I’m sorry this was so long…..
