Was this a panic attack?

[colinsmom]

Last night I was at a friends out eating pizza and all of the sudden I got this really warm feeling all over my body, my chest got tight, so I laid down while I was laying down I could feel my heart pounding in my chest. My friend got me a cold rag and my medicene and I laid on the couch for about 30 minutes and then I got up and drove home. I think it was a panic attack I just want yalls opinion. Hope everyone has a Merry Christmas! Love to all.

Yes definitely

That happens to me as well, whenever i feel an anxiety attack coming on i feel a sudden temperature change in my body and i feel really hot.

Laying down and calming down is probably the best thing to do so it doesnt increase.

Yep that's a panic attack. What I do is challenge my panic attack and tell it 'is that all you've got'? I want more! I tell my heart to beat faster and I tell my hands to shake more!

This makes it go away beleive me. It's a task from 'The Panic Away Program'

Try it a few times and you'll see it works it also builds your confidence....
