RE: The pain that didn't go away

in #pain6 years ago

Well, yes, the symptoms always give me a big scare so I try breathing deep and slow to calm myself down. And it's more like putting pressure on my throat than causing me to vomit. The symptoms usually went away in 5 to 10 minutes. Felt like forever, though!

And at some period the symptoms were all different - like a wave of butterflies (not the cutesy ''in-love'' kind of butterflies) started coming from my stomach and spread upwards, and I had this weird feeling like I didn't sense reality / was losing my mind.

Sort:  

Sounds like anxiety attack! Sorry, that sounds terrible... I have them sometimes tho usually just comes out of nowhere. Hope you don't experience them again

They do strike you randomly! At work, at home when you're relaxing, I even had them wake me up in the middle of the night a couple of times! That felt like Hell!
I hope they stop for you too. I wouldn't wish anxiety attacks for anyone!
