I Have Anxiety

I had the worst panic attack of my life last week. I woke up from a bad dream in the middle of the night, and the next thing I remember is being on the floor. Lauren ran to get her parents, but when she left the room it got worse. I was practically in a trance. My vision was blurry, I was having trouble breathing, my heart was pounding, and I was just terrified. I'm so fortunate that I have such amazing people taking care of me. They all walked through the doorway slowly, and Lauren had to embrace me for 10 minutes while her parents coaxed me. Lauren went to make me a cup of tea as her parents helped me stand up. We both didn't go back to sleep. We stayed up as she hugged me and told me about our happiest memories together. I can't express how unbelievably grateful I am for the 3 of them. I don't know what I would ever do without them.
