Hi Guys !
This weeks blog post is all about anxiety.
If you didn't know I suffer with anxiety, I still have panic attacks but my anxiety isn't as bad as you can get it
I never really knew I had anxiety until a couple months - to a year - ago.
Panic attacks are not something I have on a regular basis, just if I have had a really really bad dream and I wake up all confused, mostly with weather ! Wind and rain and storms are not my type of thing!
I can remember one time down my horse filed there was a thunder and wind storm ( don't quite know if it was a hurricane ) but it was really really scary for me, it was also a bit embarrassing because my best friend was there and the people who owned the other horses were there.
I was also in a wind storm with my nan, grandad, brother and sister, but surprisingly I slept all through it !
People always ask me what panic attacks feel like, basically you know when you're having one because your heart beats really fast, you feel like you have had a rush of adrenalin, then you cant breath very well then you start getting hot and sweaty and your vision goes a bit blurry. If you do suffer with panic attacks, different thing happen to different people, thats just what I have experienced.
A couple of months ago when I didn't know I suffered with anxiety I had a panic attack, I didn't know that it was a panic attack at that time so I got more panicky and the more panicky I got the more worked up it got, which if that has ever happened to you, you will know that is the one thing that you don't want to happen while you are having a panic attack !
I had quite a few panic attacks at school when I was having trouble with my friends, but they were just getting worked up and all hot, my eyes sometimes when blury but at school i had control over them, which is weird because if I had one in say cambridge i wouldn't be able to control it.
I nearly had one in Jack Wills a couple days before christmas, I just got really faint and hot but it wasn't really as bad. I think it was because my mum was there and that kept me calm.
Panic attacks also tamper with your social life, you don't want to go out because you're scared you will have one, you don't want to go to sleepovers for the same reason. Panic attacks can take over you life in a way. I know it has mine, but i'm hoping the older and more I learn about them the less I will get them and not let them take over my life !
I hoped you enjoyed this blog post, and follow for one every week !
Thank You for reading
