I had a panic attack yesterday. I hadn't had one in two years. I really freaked out because my children were with me. This picture describes perfectly how I was feeling...blurry...dizzy...heart racing...pressure on the chest...tingling sensations everywhere...and in general an oh no feeling...Yesterday was AWESOME!
The photo comes from OneCrazyBetty on Esty. She has lots of interesting little sculptures. The one above is called On the Verge of Insanity...definitely!

That's crazy! I went to high school with her in Washington! I am living in the IE now... small world. Cool blog by the way.
ReplyDeleteOy... I hope you're feeling better. I hope you're indulging yourself in at least small ways today.
ReplyDeleteThanks...my husband went in a little late...so I could do a little resting after my morning walk and chores!
ReplyDeleteMidnite scrapper...you went to school with onecrazybetty?Awesome...its that whole 5 degrees of separation going on!
Hope you are doing better today. I had a couple of panick attacks, when my 3 kids were little, which were followed by occular migraines. Only happened a couple of times, docs. said it was stress, hormones and sleep deprivations. Thankfully as the kids got older it all went away.
ReplyDeleteHope you don't get another one :) T.
I had a panic attack a couple days before I sculpted my little friend. And the migraines always do seem to follow don't they... if only demerall shots in the e.r. were not so expensive :) I hope you are doing better now soulflower. Thanks for the promo!
ReplyDeleteYes iam better today...Thanks everyone! Everyone thinks its such a dream to be home all the time...and im thankful that i can be but it can be stressful especially when you are a control freak and want everything to be perfect all the time...yeah as if things were perfect all the time.
ReplyDeleteHahaha. I think we're both VERY well aware that staying at home 24/7 isn't all that it's cracked up to be... Oh yeah, how's Sunday for a visit?
ReplyDeletetime to take a nice bath with pretty flower petals in it! so sorry you had to experience the stress of a panic attack :(
ReplyDeleteIndeed I do!
ReplyDeleteIt is such a relief to hear that other people have panic attacks too...no one in my family ever talked about them (if they had them)...so part of the panic in my attacks is the fear that other people will know.
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm right there with you on the staying home being stressful. Difficult to concentrate on getting anything done, when there are a million things to get done and a half dozen (give or take a half half dozen) little creatures around that would very much like your full attention!
i think its so funny when people ooh and awww because i get to stay home...if they really knew... i do realize i am fortunate to be in that position but sometimes its so overwhelming and definitely with little creatures human and otherwise buzzing about...little attention hogs!
