Hey all. Not sure if I am adding the right post flair for this since I wasn't sure but I'll leave it at that. 

Today I just had (I think) my first panic attack ever and was scared for my life thinking I was going to die. It started after I was having thoughts from a stressful situation at home and have these like pent up emotions in my chest that stay there. Hasn't been so great so not sure if this could have been a cause of a build up or something else. When I get anxious I tend to overthink and make it worse but try my all to stay calm. I woke up and felt fine until I turned the other way and it started first where I felt like when I was taking my inhaling breathing it wouldn't let me breath in all the way and felt like I had to stop to exhale or as if my body wanted me to breathe faster.

After that, I tried not to think too much and calm down and take deep breaths in and out even thought I felt like I couldn't take my deep breaths in all the way from this weird feeling that wouldn't "let me." Also felt my throat was closing up since it was dry but it wasn't and I know I was overthinking. I thought I was doing better but then out of nowhere it just hit me in the chest with a very strong heart beat one at a time. As if my heart wanted to jump out my chest until it got faster and stronger and my whole body fell super weak as if I was going to fall and my limbs were going numb/ants crawling feeling and I was shaking bad. I have never had this experience before and thought I was going to die or something but I know I was over thinking. I have anxiety but it wasn't anything severe like this ever. I've had other symptoms before but this was a first that hit me so strong. When I went to the urgent care, they told me my blood pressure and oxygen levels were fine/normal. EKG came out normal in the end despite some small heart beats close to each other or something like that when the doctor was explaining it to me. He mentioned it could of been a possibility that it's covid since it affects the heart but I am pretty much at home always and don't really go out. Aside from my family going to work and coming back but I always make sure to keep clean and not touch my face but understandable that I am still able to get it either way so I might also get myself tested to be on the safe side. But I don't feel sick at all.

Is this considered a panic attack? Has anyone else had any similar effects like what I just explained or different? Any comments are welcome and I'd appreciate any tips that help you relax and calm down after one or what you do that helps during a panic attack! Or if anyone even has a clue what it could of been that I went through. In the end I will be making sure to check up with a heart doctor just to be on the safe side.
