Hi,
It's kind of obvious but my name is Sophie and I have been suffering from anxiety symptoms since late kinder, Primary and now high school. The first big bad incident was in primary school when I was so stressed, getting picked on punched and threatened by classmates and others. In primary I was shy but had no difficulty in finding friends, but in the end they turned on me and kept me from going near most of my remaining friends. Anyway stuff got out of hand and every night I'd cry myself to sleep. Occasionally I would break down in class, I hid it as best as I could but I felt like I was becoming isolated. I started pulling my head hair unconsciously and my eyebrows it became so bad at school I faked sick so I could have a day break from them. This hair pulling had gone on for about a year and majority of family became so worried. I over heard one of my mums friends talking about me, they thought I had cancer.
Long story short my mum threatened to shave my head and I guess after my hair cut it started to grow back it was a miracle and I thought I didn't deserve it.
High school ( now), I've been having small attacks at random were its impossible to think or breath. On a Holiday at Queensland I had a huge panic attack, it was chaos. I couldn't think everything blurred around me, my chest hurt so bad I thought I was going to have a heart attack and die, I was so scarred and everything around me the walls in the apartment felt like It was closing in on me. ( trust me being clostruphobic didn't help).
Another anxiety attack occurred for no season at all during class last year, not as severe as the holiday inccedent but pretty bad. I couldn't breath or here the teacher talking. And I tried so much not to cry, but out of the class and bam I looked like an idiot crying and breathing so hard as if I was a fish out of water.
Sorry all I know I went on a bit but I've been having a lot of random attacks mainly caused by frustration nowadays but this i hav been lonely and stressed ever since I can remember ive gone on my own accord to go to see a counceler in private but nothing's helping me and I'm afraid that it's just going to get worse :(
