Hello Everybody,
I thought I would come here and share my struggles and see if any of y’all have felt the same way. It all started 2 months ago. Before I had my very first anxiety attack, I was struggling with insomnia/sleep apnea like never before. I had never gone over a night without sleep, let alone a week. I was freaking out wondering why this was happening exactly a week before moving out. Was it because I was moving out for college? Was it because subconsciously I was stressed out and nervous? I have no idea because I remember just being eager and excited to start the fun life of being a college student. 3 days before the big move, I had my very first anxiety attack. I was eating my hot chips and I felt this strange heart drop feeling. I thought I was literally dying and began to cry and pray like never before. I felt like if I didn’t forcefully inhale and exhale, I would just pass out. It’s so hard to describe the palpitations but eventually I went to the ER and the doctor said I was fine and I was probably just having an anxiety attack. I was happy thinking the anxiety would go away eventually. It hasn’t. 
I moved out, I started college, and improved exponentially since my first days, but I just don’t feel idk i guess free anymore. I have become a prisoner of my mind and never in the moment. Mind you, I think I have physical anxiety and the regular anxiety that causes you to over think. I have this sense of impending doom, but only because of my body. I feel like I can’t breathe naturally anymore. I have air hunger and deal with heart palpitations. I cut off sugar last week and have noticed a huge improvement, but is this what I am going to have to settle for? I am just so drained now. I don’t even care about the about the symptoms like air hunger and palpitations anymore since I know “it won’t kill me” but I hate this feeling of being locked in my mind and not being in the present moment. I know I’ll get rid of my anxiety somehow but I feel like it has morphed in with depression and my recovery will be a pain in the ass lol. Are there any diets, tips, cures, or anything that has helped you guys out? I want to be free again.
