My ER trip went okay. But I'm definitely not feeling any better. I feel worse. I feel like I could literally die. I feel so weak and all my limbs feel heavy and numb. I'm really scared. I'm in the dark and I keep seeing white spots floating around and I'm getting some pressure in my head along with a slight head ache.

Not gonna die. This has happened before and you came out alive, didn't you? We don't die just from measly panic attacks

You say everything at the ER went okay...I'm assuming they didn't find anything wrong? I know how you're feeling, and the night time is the worst for me. I can be fine all day but when I lay down to go to sleep the anxiety kicks into high gear, along with the insomnia. The more tired I get the worse I feel...and then I'm wondering why I feel so bad and thinking the worst, but when I stop and actually consider the fact that I haven't gotten any sleep it kind of makes sense that I feel so awful. But as much as I've been reassured that it's anxiety, and as much as I can rationally say that it is, I still worry that it could be something else and I'm just waiting for something worse to happen. The pressure in your head sounds like a tension headache, especially since you're saying it is accompanied by a slight headache. I get them frequently and they terrified me for a while because they make me feel so unsettled and uncomfortable. I sometimes put a warm compress on the back of my neck and a cold compress on my head and that helps...massage helps as well.

I don't have panic attacks. Not at all very rarely.
