Trying To Make Sense of Lunch
I have a history of maybe two or three panic attacks, and would love to hear what I experienced was just another attack.
I'm sitting at lunch, drinking a diet coke with friends, when all of the sudden I think to myself "my arms look weird." I begin sweating a little, and then all of the sudden I feel like I'm stoned. The world feels odd and foreign, and while I know where I am, my mind is sort of trying to make sense of how far I am from my house. I get in my car to leave and the road looks strange, the buildings looks strange, and my mind tells me that Im tripping on LSD or some drug that was put in my food. Buildings looks sort of small, and everything is sort of spiraling. I finally get home and sort of calm down, as I know I'm in a safe space. This sounds like a panic attack, yes?
