Anxiety Forum

Hey, I'm Ely.
I'm 15 and I just signed up to this because I really haven't been feeling too well. I just wanted a place where people can relate.
I haven't had bad anxiety for too long, I had my first panic attack about less than half a month ago, and I've had 3 since then.

How is everyone?


Here's a bit about me.

I had what i thought to be my first panic attack in late May. When it happened it was at school and I just got really scared and upset, my breathing was maybe a bit more sped up, but not too much.
After having an actual real panic attack, I realized that wasn't even close.
June Sunday 15 I was feel really frustrated for no reason and just felt like hitting and kicking everything. I think most of you know how I felt. Then I couldn't breathe. That's when it all kicked in.
The doctor gave me anxiety medicine, which, by the way, my mom doesn't let me take unless i'm feeling horrible. This is understandable.
Well anyways, about 5 days later I had another panic attack, this one felt worse than the last one mentally, but better than the last one physically because I tried to control my breathing.
Another 5 days later I had another one.
Now my parents are going to take me to a psychiatrist (if they fall through) and I've just been feeling really frustrated with everything.

I haven't had panic attacks for too long, but they still feel horrible. I'm just afraid that I'll have them when school starts back up.[/i]

It must have been frightening to have the panic attacks come on so suddenly.
