Hey guys,

To cut a long story short, last night while walking back home from the shop (in the pouring rain) a guy in a speeding car lost control and slammed into a fence/lightpole and then collected another dude who was walking about 10-15m in front of me.. I ran over to help, the not-in-car guy was fucked up big time, his skull was all squishy, didn't have a pulse and stuff so I started CPR and was trying to get passers-by and the general mass of people starting to rock up to call the cops/ambulance while doing my best for this poor guy..

After the ambulance left with him (oh, the in-car-guy was perfectly ok) and I spoke to the coppers, they dropped me home and I popped on MSN for a bit, told my friend what had happened and then started to feel a little odd.. I got really shakey and couldn't focus on anything, room was a little spinny and I became really hot and felt super sick! Ended up sitting on the bathroom floor for hours just staring at the tiles. Besides that, I don't really remember much else from last night, even working, I remember working but nothing specific!

I think I might have had a panic attack? Maybe it was down to the adrenaline from all the commotion at the accident etc.. I used to get panic attacks from agoraphobia and this was nothing like one of those PA's! Anyone have any ideas?? :(

On a side note, I'm feeling really crappy tonight. Had last night on my mind all day, haven't had my fix, no money to purchase said fix and I have to try and stay awake for work at midnight til 8am! Argh. I'll limit the complaining lol..

Thanks for any comments :)

I have panic and anxiety disorder n sounds like what happens to me. starts off tingling in my body, numbness and then shortness of breath. then the room spins and feel like I'm drowning and I have to either sit rocking back and forth like a nut saying calm down calm down breathe or I throw up nothing and pass out thinking I'm dying. Fucking sucks.
I usually pop a light benzo when I start feeling short of breath or tingly cuz I KNOWim about to have a panic attack.


it's no surprise given last night you'd be experiencing this. not sure if it's me but weed made it worse and actually has put me in the third stage skipped the others just couldn't breathe. I would seriously go get a mild benzo from your dr. doesn't knock me out and just calms me the fuck down
