What's up my beautiful people. Just joined this sub. Have been dealing with something lately and it's one of the worse feelings one could feel. 

I'm 29, male. Workout religiously. In very good shape and eat mindfully and spend a lot of time outdoors (camping, biking, kayaking). I try my best to keep a healthy shell inside and out. I've got demons, we all do. 

This past year and a half I've been getting these "episodes". I had a bad one about thr time this started. I was at the gym and got wrecked with feeling short of breath, shake and lightheaded. I was walking around like I was trying to hold onto life. It felt like my vision was dimming on me.. as if I was getting ready to pass out. I left the gym and got my head together and it passed.

Was tempted to call 911 but some weird rational part of Mr told me I was fine. Now, I didn't have an episode like that in sometime. About 6 months. But recently, this last year they're back and more frequently. 

I'll randomly get short of breath and feel like I'm dying almost. I feel like I'm going to pass out, but never do. I tell myself "nothing bad never happens, you'll get through this". And as always, it passes. Tends to shoot my heart rate through the roof. 

They're very random. I can't figure out the trigger. Could be driving. Could be at the gym. Camping.  They're short lived and usually helped with breathing work and telling myself I'm fine. Some last 5 mins, some last 30. 

Has been happening about twice a week lately. Sometimes none. 

Guess I'm just posting to see if anyone else gets these feelings like I do randomly without a "trigger". Also feel like when one cones on I can come back to this and read others stories. 

Appreciate any feedback. This itself helped typing this out. Felt like I got something off my chest. Because I do suffer In silence.  

Much love all.
