Anonymous asked: I have pannic attacks all the time. Like today, i studied all night for my spanish quiz the when i got it i blanked out, got the chills, started rocking back and forth, felt like i was going to hurl, i couldnt think and all i wanted to do was cry. I held in the tears and got like 6 anwsers out of 25. I passed in the test fustrated. I still feel sick and like a failure. During the quiz all i could think of was woah im stupid and i cant get into college with a bad grade like this. Help.
Panic attacks sure suck, I used to have them too. What’s important to know about them is that there is often a reason for you to have them. I got them when I was depressed, and then I started seeing a psychologist and after a few months I got rid of them. I haven’t had one since.
I don’t know how it is with you, but if you’re feeling down or stressed I’m sure that’s the reason you have them. Either way you should go talk to somebody, because they can help you to get rid of them. I promise. Many many people have them because of stress, and it seems to me that you are stressed about college. Go talk to someone and sort your mind out, honey. I’m sure it will help. And anytime you get a panic attack, try to take deep breaths and think about calm stuff, like the ocean.
Good luck!
