I’ve always dealt with anxiety in my life due to past trauma, bullying, home life etc. But for the first time I had an extremely severe panic attack a week ago. I went to see a movie with my boyfriend and in the middle of the movie my anxiety ramped up like crazy and I started to get dizzy and had trouble breathing + pain in my chest so I started freaking out and sobbing and he rushed me to the hospital where they did a bunch of heart tests on me and basically they just told me it was a panic attack but it went on for a good while and it was so scary. I was so utterly terrified that I was gonna die and my anxiety has never risen to this level. Since then, I’ve noticed my anxiety has been heightened a lot and it’s been scary. I don’t even really know what else to say other than it was just really terrifying and I just needed to let my feelings out :(
