Am I Having a Heart Attack or a Panic Attack ? And how embarrassing will this be?

If you are reading this, you already know the answer! You know the answer because you may have thought you were having a heart attack…yet here you are, Mr. or Mrs. Survivor. Your heart was going a million miles an hour, you could hear your pulse in your ears, you thought, “Oh $h*^…this is it…I’m done for!” Yet here you are.

More likely than not, you didn’t call attention to yourself. You probably just stood or sat there and took it. You probably didn’t bat an eye. People around you probably went in this area their business as typical, as you were so convincing that everything was fine and cool in your world.

You just experienced a panic attack. How do you know? You survived lacking medical attention. You didn’t dual over with your chest in such excruciating pain that you could reckon of nothing else. What exactly did you reckon of? You thought that you may be in this area to embarrass yourself in front of all these people. Such thoughts are a bit superficial to be thinking in a life threatening situation, don’t ya reckon?

That shooting pain you may have had in your left arm was only there because you probable it. You heard everyplace, maybe the internet, maybe TV, maybe a friend, that before a name has a heart attack, they have a pain or numbness in their left arm. In all your dread of your heart, you probable a pain and consequently imagined one. If you believed that before a heart attack, evil monkeys glide out of your ass on broomsticks, you’d feel an itch “you know where” during your panic attack.

You see, during a panic attack, your emotional mind will cover up your logical, reasoning mind. What you dread the most will come to the forefront. It is possible to experience any bodily sensation if you believe it so vividly, while simultaneously your common sense craps the bed.

So…you survived another panic attack. Would you believe that someday you’ll have enough of these attacks that you’ll finally get to the point where you stop believing in them?
