Got some on-off periods of anxiety that has come and going the past couple of years. A mixture of dealing with chronic illness, autism and social anxiety, really makes for a grand time.
Is not a constant at least and I rarely get full on panic attacks.
But feeling a pike again lately and needed to illustrate it for venting. Decided to illustrate the latest attack I had from a couple of weeks ago.
Woke up in the middle of the night feeling sick, so I ended up sitting on the bathroom floor until I realized I felt terrible because I wasn't in control of my breathing.
Usually helps as soon I realize and get my breathing under control while sitting in peace and quiet, and soon enough I stopped feeling like puking.
It just usually doesn't hit me like that in my sleep, nor get so bad I don't even realize I'm hyperventilating until the pins and needles hit.
Luckily is very, very rare I get full on attacks, and I'm usually good at catching the signs. But sometimes it still manages to catch you off guard.
I still consider myself healthy enough on this regard, just the rare slip-up now and again. Worst part of it all is always trying to rake your brain for a reason and only end up with "brain chemistry is dumb and broken."
Just a bit of venting, must be done now and again to try easen the pressure in the skull.
Enjoy

GODDAMMIT this reminds me of the first time I had one! I thought I was DYING!
Good to know it wasn't just me...
Just... realize I CAN breath despite my panic attack. It helped
But is different for everyone
Aspergers? that's what they told me when i was younger
The brain is dumb and full of broken chemicals
