I had an anxiety panic attack today?

Thursday, December 17th, 2009


I have been anxious about the finals and other school struggles lately, and today during the second to the last class..I am sure I had an attack. I could not breathe litterally like i could not swollow and my heart was racing and I was sooo cold and then hot and I felt numb and shaky followed by dizzyness. I have had one before last year in class and I passed out and ended up with the paramedics. While it happend today I tried to hide the fact that I was going crazy and something was wrong but people knew it and looking at me wierd and trying to talk to me. five minutes into the attack I felt like I needed to talk to the teacher to help me get my mind off of it. The bell rang and said you need to go to your next class. I apprently was acting wierd blurting out I cant I cant and looked really frustrated and anxious. Shortly after it passed as I was walking to the next class. Was I having another attack like before? Is this what it looks like to other people too what I feel? Idk it was horrible and felt like exploding. Should I appologize to my teacher and try to explain to her that I had an anxiety attack?
When one is having an attack….is it always really obvious to other people around that something is definately wrong? I dont want to draw bad attention to myself because people think im crazy and stupid. So I was thinking that the reason why she did not realize it was something I could not control and that i was having an attack well was because I always look confused and nervous just today was over the top and kindof agressive. Maybe it was not noticeable that I felt like I cant breath and that im breathing really hard. What does it look like to a spectator. I dont really know because its like im in a zone with everything around all foggy and high speed and bright and moving. What I think I did during the attack was look very agitated and upset and biting nails. Idk my friend said to me why are you covering your face?
