I am 18 years old and I'm suffering from major panic disorder and anxiety attacks from an year or so....the first time I had a panic attack I consulted my doctor and he said that I had panic disorder
So I'm usually a victim of anxiety attacks
But a day ago I went through something which I think was the worst feeling ever...
I was sitting normally and doing my work..when suddenly I felt something wierd like loosing balance or something in the part between lower head and neck and within few seconds ,my face ,my hands ,my legs and my entire body felt like plastic ...litrelly plastic...I felt this is it ..IM Having a brain stroke!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!this is going to kill me....I felt like I'm losing touch with reality I felt like I have lost my balance..but all this happened within 10-15 minutes .... My mom helped my calm me and I did breathing exercise for the next 30 mins ..but still I felt wierd all over body ..but after sometime l felt perfectly normal...I went to sleep woke up the next morning..normal no hint of weakness and dizziness...
I'm really scared what's happening to me...I really want get out of this... is this my anxiety or something else?????
Yeah, sounds like anxiety/panic. I get weird symptoms all the time. For example I was at a friends house earlier today and while I was talking to her I felt unattached and the derealization . It was not bad I just reminded myself that it is nothing to worry about and continue on with my day. The best thing to do is accept everything you feel.
I wants had a sensation that my head was really heavy and my vision started to go out on me and I felt super dizzy and that scared me to no end. I swear I thought I was having a stroke or something crazy but everyone of my friends reassured me that I was OK and it was anxiety.
