think i had my first ever panic attack last night
my chest became really painful and i started becoming really conscious of my heart beat and it was going really really slowly and then i was sweating like a bastard and boiling hot. laid down on the floor on my front because i was getting really paranoid of passing out and swallowing my tongue or choking on sick or something. i felt my heart beat and it seemed to be going at like 50bpm which i thought was really low? and it was really faint i could barely feel it anyway. i was finding it difficult to breathe and just kept trying to breathe in slowly and out and not hyperventilate. it was all i could focus on and happened for about 45 minutes in total and in the end i just passed out and woke up there this morning. really really frightening and at one point i genuinely thought i was going to die or my heart was just going to pack in. i cant describe how anxious i was and how horrible the feeling was. the worry and paranoia was probably worse than the actual symptoms though but at the time i wasnt to know.
does anybody ever get weird stuff like this? i was going to phone a doctor/999 but really couldnt even move by the end. should i go today and speak to someone?
i dont want it to happen again. thanks
