Most days I just feel like a big ball of nerves, always wondering if my health is ok, or if my families health is going to be ok. 

The physical symptoms it gives me: tingly skin and scalp, tight chest, shallow breathing, head pressure. 

The physical symptoms of my panic attacks: all the above plus numb hands and face, sweating, impulsive behavior, light headed and dizzy, weak, fear that I’m dying. 

My friends will never understand what it’s like to have anxiety and panic attacks. They don’t think it’s a real thing, rather something someone can control.
