Best panic attack yet. Part 2 Panic Buggaloo
So I submitted my story a few days ago;
https://www.reddit.com/r/Anxiety/comments/e3l0yu/best_panic_attack_yet/
About getting through a panic attack relatively easily compared to others. I had some really nice feedback from you guys and was feeling great about the whole thing.
Yesterday I had a fabulous day, went paddleboarding, and snorkelling (sorry it's Florida thats what we do in December) with a friend, and when I got back, I just started feeling off again.
With my attack the other day I was trying to blame caffiene, but this time I hadn't consumed any since that day, and yet the feelings still came up.
Instead of it coming to a head it just kinda lingered, the rest of the day, I felt massively uncomfortable, but it never elevated into a full on attack.
I guess I'm posting this to show that anxiety comes in many different forms, and I'm clearly not out of the woods. Anxiety is something I live with, and can't control, and hopefully I can minimize it as much as possible with a healthy lifestyle, and deal with the waves as they come and go.
As much as I wanted to post a happy ending, that's real life. I wanted to be honest, and this is a wonderful community full of great people. All the best to all of you on your journeys.
