Alright so here goes... this is my first time ever posting on this and I’m unsure of how this works. Yes, this is a throwaway account. 
But I seriously need help. This is my story. On January 12th I fainted in the shower for an unknown reason. I am an 18 year old male and this was the first time it had ever happened to me. It was scary.
I was just showering, I usually sit in the shower since I am too lazy and enjoy it. But I usually do it just to relax. So I was just relaxing and then I got up to wash off my body with body wash and go along with my night. I successfully scrubbed my body and everything and now I was just standing there, underneath the hot water. All I remember was taking in a deep breath of air and suddenly I was on the floor laying on my back with my parents knocking at the door and yelling. Terrified, I got up, turned off the shower, got a towel, opened the restroom door and there I saw my parents, but I was in a bout of fear and I fully recognized them, but I was confused as to what had happened. My shock lasted about 5 hours since I’ve as so terrified about what had happened. My parents aren’t in no way health experts but they know that fainting can be cause by lack of oxygen to the brain. Knowing this I began to overthink and thought that maybe my bout with Covid in December led me to have some sort of heart problem, this scared me since I am really young and enjoy being physically active. So I began to gain anxiety and a recent EKG from a doctors reported that I had an abnormal heartbeat. At least that’s what the computer said, but I am just now (I initially went Jan. 17) noticing that the physician had crossed out “Sinus arrhythmia” signaling that the computer was likely wrong. Tomorrow I am going to go again since I have had serious problems due to my overthinking, I have had anxiety to the point where I cannot sleep more than an hour at a time for the past three days. I’ve been having these hallucinations called “hypnagogic hallucinations” that terrify me to death. I can just be drifting off and suddenly the worst dream hits me. Just 3 days ago I had my first one and it was terrifying, I had called my mom to come to my room since I couldn’t sleep after my dad woke up for work. Long story short, I woke up imagining my mother having a sleep paralysis and as I tried helping her to wake up I noticed snakes coming out of her mouth and then I woke up. I had only been asleep 1 hour as it was now 7:21. I slept about 4 hours in total that night. Fast forward to the next die and I was drifting off to sleep again when I suddenly imagined men trying to help with a defibrillator and I woke instantly. Despite trying to go back to sleep, I was only able to again sleep only 1 hour, this time for the entirety of the night. I spent the rest of that entire day being terrified. Now just last night I awoke again after 1 hour and imagined some white people trying to rescue me, not white like Caucasian, but like white cartoons. I awoke immediately despite taking melatonin (it was 11:33 pm) Later that night, at about 3:30 am I fell asleep again and this time awoke to a lady checking my blood oxygen with a pulse oximeter, and as soon as she took my hand I was passing out and foaming at the mouth, I again awoke, it was 4:46 am. But here’s the only good sign, I was able to sleep about 3 different times the rest of the night, about an hour a piece sadly. So about 5 hours sleep in total. But the worse part is that this is all so sudden and started when I fainted in the shower and was led to believe that my heart was messed up. I’ve felt really scared and cried sometimes because I am fearful, I don’t have any health insurance and the clinic I go to is a religious clinic that is free to everyone. So I don’t know who I can seek therapy with. Also, prior to this I had never had any problems with sleep and anxiety. 


I know it’s a long read, but if you made it this far, thank you, and I would really like to know your thoughts on this matter!
