People be romantizising Anxiety until you have a panic attack and lay in your own spit

Just had a panic attack, nobody gave a fuck. This is the community I feel at home at

Panic attacks are absolute the worst. I cant tell the difference between them and impending sense of doom. To me they always overlap because i literally feel that I am about to die

I abuse so much Xanax it's the only way I can cope with it sometimes.

Seems like everyone is at capacity in terms of sympathy these days. It's caused me to just try to ride out my panic attacks in front of people and pretend like nothing's happening hahha

Panic attacks leave me unable to breath, sweating and freezing, in terror. I am working to stop them before full blown or, at the very least, shorten them. Big hugs to you, and peace to all with anxiety issues.

Big hugs to you too, hope you manage have less panic attacks, I used to be afraid of going to the street at my worse.

I agree. With anxiety, I get infantilized ("aww nervous lil baby uwu") by certain people until I have a full blown panic attack. Once I start hyperventilating, crying, and screaming people get annoyed and want nothing to do with me. I don't get comforted and no one helps me ground myself. Instead, I get told to shut the fuck up and that I'm driving the people around me insane. After years of being treated lesser than and as an embarrassment, I learned to hide my attacks a lot better. I would either just hide in my room and let it manifest there or in a single-person restroom if I'm in public. People really don't give a shit about people they consider burdensome ... Anxiety and depression are only "valid" if the normies can deal with it.

Yeah, there's nothing romantic about panic attacks & flashbacks. For me, it's like being set on fire, I convulse & sweat buckets. Talk about the fiery pits of Hell.

I read that the sweat is to cool us down for flight from danger, but it debilitates me and I'm physically weak afterward for a long while. But as soon as I recover, I'm somewhat energized. You?

When the "fever" culminates, I dissociate & my mind goes into super horny mode for a while. Nothing is real except extremely vivid sexual fantasies. If my husband is home, we make out & usually have sex.

People romanticize anxiety?

They romantisize depression so I think there will be people doing the same with anxiety. I am not sure though so I guess this post is shit

 

[TooConscious]

I read your post in the sense that "some people romanticize anxiety until they have a panic attack" and thought about the people who play on it because it's the new trend not many have to experience panic terror but their the ones who get all the care and attention.
