I feel like my anxiety is different than most I real on this forum. Let me explain.
I've had anxiety off and on for about two years. I used to panic while having an attack but now I have almost no mental anxiety, like it's all physical.
I have the irregular breathing, shortness of breath, light headedness, numbness of hands and arms. Also mine are lasting a lot longer than I'm used to. Just the other night it lasted about 5 hours. It was horrible.
I feel like i always have to yawn, like I'm not getting enough oxygen.
The only thing that really helps is calling and talking to my mom.
Also, when I try to fall asleep when this is happening, I stop breathing and wake up from not breathing every few minutes.
So I know it's not just in my head.
I don't know. I guess I just want to know if anyone else is experiencing my symptoms. There's something about misery loves company. :)
