Last night, I had a headache and a fever of 99.7. Slightly high but not too high. I took two 509 mg extra strength tynenol and fell asleep a bit after. For about 30 minutes or an hour. I woke up, got up to use the bathroom and that's when it all happened. I sat down, I was going to take my temperature again yo see if it went down and I had no idea how to. I started freaking out so I told myself to hurry up and get out. That's when I was like, well, where am I and how do I get to my room? I felt so odd and it's been all I've been thinking about.
I don't know what happened and I'm scared it might have been something serious like a stroke or something. Or if it was because I was more asleep than I was awake.
What do I do? I do have anxiety and it's making it worse.
Sounds like you had an panic attack
Do not worry. That is just anxiety. Sometimes when I wake up from a nap or sleep, I am completely dazzled and my mind is cloudy. I won't know what day it is or time it is. And I am left confused for a very long time. But it is just anxiety. Nothing is wrong with you, if it were a stroke there would be other symptoms and pains you would feel. Relax and don't worry yourself about it or you'll go back into that panic and fear and it could get worse!
I'm going to talk to my therapist about it. It was odd and scary. I posted this question on yahoo answers, don't ask why, I just did, and they said maybe God was calling me and it brought back anxiety because it felt so odd and I'm already thinking I'm dying. As for the stroke, I feel like I can't talk, I obviously am, but like I'm not making sense. I feel confused and my arms and legs, more specifically my forearms and shins feel stiff, like if they're tingiling. I came to the ER and well, they said I look fine and healthy and she's not concerned about it but they aren't even bothering to do test to see if I do have one. If I die, then what? I can't sue them and they're just going to keep doing the same thing to young people because they can't have a stroke or heart attack and just dismiss everything as anxiety which is bull to me.
The people on yahoo don't suffer anxiety like we all do here. They talk strictly out of their ass(sorry for language). If the doctor said you are fine, then relax, you are. You are making your ownself feel all those sensations and symptoms. You'll be suprised what your mind can do. If you were dying, it would have already happened. You're freaking yourself out. I did this to myself for many years and I realized that I was causing everything I thought was wrong with me.
