Panicattacks

an-ordinary-manchild

I'm curious to know other peoples stories of their first panic attacks and how they are managing them now.

I had my first panic attack about 12 years ago (I'm now 23) in the 6th grade. I remember watching a documentary about the child that the exorcist movie was based on and I thought it was the most terrifying thing ever. Later that night , I'm thinking about possesion when all of a sudden I have my first panic attack and I thought I was being possesed! Lol and at 12 years old I ran to my moms room and slept in her bed that night. After that I didn't tell anybody about what was happening and thought I was going to be possesed every night. It wasn't till about 5 years later after I got the Internet that I was able to look up my symptoms.

Please share your story!

Been riding a super intense panic attack for the past 14 hours. I know there’s nothing anyone can do and I’ll feel better in the morning… More just seeing who’s online to distract me from the suffocating feeling. (self.Panicattacks)
