I just had a panic attack!

Wow. I had to leave work. I saw a doctor just to be sure I wasn't in physical distress. My heart wouldn't stop racing, I had some pain in my chest, still do as I type this.

Heart sounds good, BP is good. this is insane. I never believed in mental ailments. I kinda do now.

I am still kinda in shock and bugging out, but slowly calming down, prob thanks to the meds. This is really crazy.

Anything specific that triggered it?


Happened to me once but it was just some extra dank Weed....had me locking my bedroom door,closing the blinds and tucking myslef under the sheets
 
Quick. To the internet?

Anyway it sounds like you spoke to a medic which is the proper course of action in such situations.

"I never believed in mental ailments."
Really?

People sometimes flip out, that normal but good that you checked with the doc.
Personally I wouldn't be too much concerned about it (But i dunno if anything's wrong with you, that's why we have docs)
 
Sorry to know you experienced that :(

I experienced another one a few days ago, and that wasn't the first one, so I know how you felt.

Take care :)
 
thanks for all the positive comments! my heart was just racing, i was very tense in the chest, neck and shoulders and i think it just got to me. i really thought i might have been having a heart problem. i feel a lot better today but yesterday just disappeared, i don't even know what happened between coming home from work and waking up this morning.

and yes, i never really believed in mental ailments - the mind is strong enough that you can overcome any issues like that with proper meditation and focus. as a young dude, my mindset was REALLY strong.

Very...idyllic. Too bad that statement is completely false.
 
maybe it is false, but maybe its true. you can't prove a mental ailment - its a feeling.

maybe ailment isnt the best word - im talking like depression and panic attacks and mental addictions. if you just focus, you can overcome it. some weak minds can't, not faulting anyone for having a weak mind - mind you ;) but its true. some people have stronger thinking than others.

i break down when it comes to dealing with stressful adult stuff, my wife can pretend to be strong through it.
 
I had many panic attacks several years ago. They generally occurred when I was under a lot of stress.
I haven't had one in many years, but I don't know what changed.
They were awful I remember.
The worst ones happened when I was half asleep or about to get asleep.
I felt that it was hard to breath and I really felt like I was going to die and couldn't almost move, I could move just a little after making a lot of effort.
Weird things, fortunately they stopped.
Hope you get better.

^ This is sleep paralysis. Scary, and really not fun.
This is almost worse than awoken panic attacks.

    @SylverReZ, atleast wiimmfii went fine although people only use it for Mario kart Wii
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    At least if they ban you for cheating, get another Wii. They're cheap as chips.

    Remember when RiiShop was a thing?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    not really
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    It got shutdown because somebody "accidentally" leaked the database for the amount of people using the beta.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    RiiShop is the laziest way of downloading Wii games. Did somebody not think of this through?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    although i ended up accidentally changing my nand with no way of going back bc i didn't know you needed a gamecube controller to restore it (i have a wii minus/1.1, which doesn't have gamecube controller support)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, I think you're talking about the recovery mode that the SaveMii used, and also was to restore softbricked systems.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    If your NAND was hardbricked, then just buy another Wii. Or go with the dirty NAND flasher method.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    and if i find the sd card i have my NAND backed up on, i can not only restore the NAND if i solder the right part in, but i can also put my NAND on dolphin, then i can play dolphin online, like PMEX Remix or MKWii Riibalanced
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Brb
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, Oh yeah, that was a thing too. Dolphin does support Wiimmfi.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    yeah you just need to put your NAND backup with wiimmfi on it
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    ngl i feel like if a bunch of my friends have wiis and know how to get wiimmfi and back up their NAND, then we could do a PMEX Remix tournament
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    maybe even add UMVC3/DBFZ and make it a biathlon/triathlon
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Too bad Excite Truck wasn't multi player :(
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
