My Panic Attacks

by Becky
(England)

I suffer from terrible panic attacks and I am getting help at a psychologist but it just isn’t getting better in fact when my psychologist went on holiday my panic attacks were really bad.
My panic attacks are made up of:

Feeling sick
Worrying about people being sick
Getting hot
Going places I have never been before
Not preparing myself for things
School
Being taken away from my parents

My panic attacks have been so bad recently that I haven’t been going to school and my family have been getting really annoyed with me because unless you have panic attacks you don’t understand , luckily my Nan suffered panic attacks when she was little too, so she understands.

I am now getting more help so that when I am older I will not have panic attacks anymore, because if I do not get help now it could mentally scar me.

At school we have 5 or 6 lessons a day and I go to 3 or 4 of them so I am getting better.

I hope my story has helped you in some way and if you are like me and suffer this please go to a psychologist and get help as I would hate to think there was more people out there that suffer this too. =D
