Hi there,
In my life I have only had a couple of 'panic' episodes when I was a child, but last November I woke up from a nap and had a massive panic attack. I was hyperventilating like crazy, my arms and legs went numb and I couldn't move my fingers or toes. I went to the emergency room and thankfully my heart, blood, and everything is fine.
However since then I have been having wave after wave of anxiety. For a couple of weeks afterwards I was ok, but ever since coming back from spending time with my family at Christmas I have been having frequent anxiety attacks. They are milder, I can control my breathing, keep it together etc. but I can't control when they're happening, and it is worse when I'm tired or exhausted.
It has really disrupted my life, I am going out less, afraid to tell my friends, more worried about things, and have this near constant worrying about dying. I hate it. The hospital said I was ok then, but I feel so drained by it all the time now. What should I do?
