Today At work I had a strange thing happen to me where suddenly i couldn’t hear the words my coworker who was just a few feet from me was saying that made me panic fearing I had a mini stroke. Then about 6 minutes later I start feeling like I couldn’t breath and my heart started beatin really fast and I felt dread and a little bit of confusion as well and arm and legs felt weak for a few seconds but I could still move them. After about an 1hr I feel totally normal my question is did I just have an extreme panic attack or should I go see a doctor?. I have been diagnosed with anxiety disorder in the past
No one on here can diagnosis you so it’s important to follow up with your doctor and tell him or her exactly what happened.
It may be related to anxiety but it’s best to let your doctor determine that.
Take Care ❤️🙂
From my experience , what you had could be a panic attack as what you have described . You would feel uncomfortable but the sensations are not dangerous. For me, when I have a panic attack, I feel like I couldn’t breath, then hyperventilating, chest pain and tight, feel very unreal and couldn’t hear anything g suddenly when the surrounding is noisy. You are not alone !
I strongly suggest you to see a psychaitrist or a therapist to find out what’s wrong . Take care
Alex - I had this happen to me a few times last year. Once I went to the ER. Nothing! It was deemed to be an anxiety related panic episode. Scary feeling... I’m lucky I didn’t hit my head when I went down, or occur while driving. I haven’t had one since.
