I am 12, and 3 weeks ago I had what you call a "panic attack"
I started having shortness of breath, chest pain on/off, abit of numbness in toes/fingers, worrying over nothing like traeling on a plane, spending a long time out of the house.
Is this for sure anxiety ?
I weighed 69 kilos, 5 feet tall, when have the anxiety attack, now I weigh 65.
I feel abit healed since the shortness of breath isn't so hard to cope with, like I take a deep breath, then I breathe normally, not much chest pain, and I haven't had a panic attack in a while.
I have only had 3 panic attacks since those 3 weeks, I started eating healthy, and losing weight already.
what are other natural remedies ?
also, is there any chance I have heart disease ?
if you have anxiety, and your overweight is there a chance of heart disease, and diabetes ?
or am I fine, is it JUST anxiety ?
help !
does "shortness of breath" only occur while your having an anxiety attack, or does it occur when you HAVE anxiety ?
light headedness and dizziness occured while I had my anxiety attack.
is this really anxiety ?
I went to the doctor with my mom, the first said he wasn't so sure since it was the first day.
the 2nd was a doctor for children, and she said that I am too stressed for y age, she didn't know what I had wrong wiht me though,
my blood pressure was checked and its fine also.
what is it ?
please answer I NEED HELP !
:(

Well, I can say one thing. Anxiety attacks always happen for a reason, sometimes even in situations you've been in before - it'll just happen. (Witness of it)



I would advise you to write a list of stuff that's happened, is going on now, and stuff that's going to happen in the future as well as describing how you feel about the events. Think through what might be making you stressed. This'll help you become more aware of whats going on around you and how you feel about the subjects (self-awareness). I can imagine your life is very school and peer centered - it could be people around you making you nervous/stressed or something.



It's great that you're eating healthier! You're getting a head start on something other people struggle with. Keep up with this habit you're building because it can help your health for the rest of your life.



I can't say for sure that you've developed any sort of disorder/disease/big medical issue because you're still very young. It's unlikely. But yes, your weight can increase your chances of getting diabetes/heart disease/etc.



Take note of what's going on when another attack comes along, how long it lasted, how severe the symptoms were. It's the weekend now, so you have plenty of time to think about whats happened around you and within your own mind. Yay! Self-reflection.



Good luck. I hope everything turns out ok!

Its probably just anxiety...i feel bad for you, you're so young. Im 22 and i just had my first attack like 3 weeks ago...



if i feel one coming on, i concentrate on my breathing.



Shortness of breath, and rapid or irregular heartbeat is a sympton of anxiety.



I was also getting worried about being out of the house for too long, or being far from home. But i forced myself to do it, and be normal...and now im better with it. just try your hardest to get past it. I kept telling myself, i dont want to live like this...so i better get over it now.



My 14 year old cousin has them too, and i think hers is hormone related since shes going through puberty...



Feel better!!!

Anti-anxiety meds.. you can get them from a mental health specialist. Like Xanax. Works great

seek the spirit of God, Jesus is gentle in your heart.. read your Bible..



"Come to me, all you who are weary and find life burdensome, and I will refresh you. Take my yoke upon your shoulders and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble of heart. Your souls will find rest, for my yoke is easy and my burden light." (matthew 11:28-30)



"Dismiss all anxiety from your minds. Present your needs to God in every form of prayer and in petitions full of gratitude. Then God's own peace, which is beyond all understanding, will stand guard over your hearts and minds, in Christ Jesus." (philippians 4:6-7)



this is helpful to me, just sharing it! it is life!
