Had a panic attack today after successfully managing my anxiety symptoms for a week

I thought it would be a good idea to share my symptoms with you guys so maybe, if someone goes through something similar they know what's happening.

  • my legs were weak, I felt weak and like I was about to pass out if I stood up (probably low blood pressure)
  • felt disassociated at one point i swore I was actually slipping outside my body
  • hands were cold - coworker tried to take my blood sugar but barely any blood was coming out
  • (something completely new) bowel/urinary incontinence feeling like I immediately needed to go to the bathroom, and thought this was a sure sign that whatever I was about to experience, I was going to die from it.
  • intrusive thoughts about passing out or having a seizure
  • tremors -thought I would start slurring
  • restless feeling in my body
  • feeling "disconnected" from my hands (? Super hard to explain, like I had no control of them)
  • crying after the "episode"

My vitals were okay - I've had blood work and an EKG done and I am fine - not diabetic by any means
