I have been experiencing anxiety attacks or panic attacks a lot lately. and i do not know what they are caused by. i am lucky that i am surrounded by people who know how to handle my attacks, but i feel incredibly self concious and embarrased after one. i am under 18 and i have not told my parents and they are not around much to help anyways…any advice? Also my parents don’t know how to handle things like these. Any suggestions about them either?

I had an anxiety attack today?
Saturday, December 12th, 2009
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!

Well my friend is obsessed with the fact that Im lying to her even though Im not. She keeps telling me about a phobia as she puts it that involves people with high IQ’s that lie a lot because they are self concious. Is there any such thing or is SHE lying?
