Mild anxiety:
Stressed by minor things that shouldn't stress
Tightness in chest
Mild feelings of not wanting to mix with people
Disturbed sleep
If a panic attack may be going to happen:
Shortness of breath
Difficulty in swallowing and choking on water or food
Claustraphobia
Paranoia and the need to be alone and focus on relaxing
Sometimes heart palpitations

@SW-User That must have felt awful going through that at that age. When i read about people who had a stable homelife and a happy childhood especially at school, i really can't quite understand how great that must have been.

@Pitchblue Has it helped you at all. It really helps me sleep deeply.

@Pitchblue It take a little while, but I think it does work :)

My face gets hot and my mind feels cloudy. My entire body feels like my skin is inside out and I get an uncomfortable tingling sensation in my feet. Sometimes I get a pain near my right scapula and if bad enough, I get PVCs (premature ventricular contractions) which feels like my heart is skipping a beat.

If I'm going into a panic attack, I start to cry...more or less tears running down my face, not the full on boohoo...I get short of breath, I get hot and sweat, I try to control my breathing which doesn't necessarily work, then I start to hyperventilate. If I pull my shirt up over my nose and breathe in my shirt it will normally help. Then, it's like nothing happened. Stress, feeling overwhelmed are my normal triggers.
