I don't know what's wrong with me

[Crystal3]

so it stared when I started to use drugs I thought I couldn't swallow and thought I was vomiting and chocking on my vomit, but awhile I had a different drug and I had my first panic attack or at least I think it was, I was at a party I started pacing and my heart was racing I was dizzy and felt this werid feeling in my stomach I thought I was going to die all these thoughts were just going through my head and I was freaking. But after about 30 minutes it went away but recently I have had very bad health anixety like I just think about stuff and if makes me freak out and I think I'm dying when I'm not, like in class the other day I got the same feeling in my stomach I got when I had the second drug I was dizzy and thought I was going metal and felt like I couldn't breathe and was feeling really enclosed then I spoke to my dad and It calmed down but this happened after a family friend freaked me out and said that my brain is fried and I was at these formal photos and just looking at everyone make me freak out I got light headed and the other day I was at the beach in the water and it was hard to breathe, my breathes were short and my friends got me out and my heart was racing and I felt like I was choking which most of the time I think I'm choking. I feel that all the time and the other night I went drinking with my friends and I didn't drink much and I felt like I was going to die I got the feeling In my stomach I felt enclosed on the bus and really hot and light headed and I could breathe properly it was like short breathes, the other night I make my mum drive me to the hospital cause I looked down my throats and I could see my epiglotis I didn't know what that was I thought it was a bone and I felt like It was making me choke and the hospital told me it was a swallow tonisal and if it gets bigger go to the hospital so all night I kept waking up thinking I stoped brething So the next day I went to my doctor For that and another problem and when I thought I had something I started looking up all these symptoms and I felt like I had them and she told me I didn't and then it went away she told me that I should speak to someone about my aniexty so now I am

Welcome, Crystal<3! May I ask, are you still using drugs? Either way, you should be honest to your doctor, because recreational drugs mess up your health, including mental health. Even if you have stopped taking them, it is still helpful to let your doctor know, so she can keep an eye on your health. If you are still using them, for the interest of your heath, please stop taking them. Depending on what you took and how long you have taken them, you may need medical supervision to go off them.

Hi Crystal. I wrote a reply last night however it didn't post due to either a website error or internet error on my end

Like you when I get panic/anxiety attacks I also get the throat closing sensation. It isn't the most adverted anxiety symptom however it is more common than you think. When it first happened to me I thought I was starting to get my throat closed over, I also took antihistamines however it was not necessary as it was all anxiety based. I found headspace, a youth mental health service. I saw a GP there who did a mental health care plan so I could see a psychologist/mental health nurse. It was all free. I found it really helpful and it helped me deal with my anxiety issues. Now I am not sure if you are still taking drugs (this is a judgement free zone) however it maybe useful for them to get to the bottom of what caused you anxiety and how to move forward. Like nicotine tools can be explored to help quit.

Hope to see you on the forums again
