im not very comfortable telling people irl this so i'd like to get you guys opinions on it i guess?

for a while now when im sitting in class or just at home i suddenly start get sort of waves of heat through my body and my heart feels odd and and air suddenly becomes so sparse and warm. when i cant feel myself breathing in the air i usually start to panic. and i get a feeling where i just want to stand up and find an escape- almost like im drowning and the more i stay still in my seat the deeper i sink into the hotness and stuffiness. the more i sink deeper the higher everyone else seems to get, like they can breathe and think perfectly fine and they're are just massive walls around me. (sorry its a lil abstract but i dont know how else to explain it lol)
its starting to really worry me because it been happening atleast once a day and im not sure what to do about it and it really messes with my mind and i find it hard to concentrate for the rest of the lesson.
 
I'm no professional but if I had to take a guess I would say it's a panic attack and you should mention it to a doctor/psychologist if you have the chance to. There are lots of resources online about how to manage them as well but I'm not sure how helpful they would be for you, worth a read though!

I would have to agree with this.
 
I’m not an expert either, but I struggle with really bad anxiety, and I’d say this is pretty similar to how I feel when I start having an anxiety/panic attack. I would say you should try to speak with a doctor or psychologist if possible, and describe to them how you feel. They’ll be able to best diagnose this, although it does sound very similar to the feeling I experience when I have an anxiety attack
 
I'd also think it's anxiety!! I struggle with frequent panic attacks and they can indeed feel like that. Kinda like everybody is echoing and you're just kinda there dissociating, snkdnkde. Even if nothing triggers it, panic attacks can happen at anytime, like "hey boi remember me". But yeah, I'll suggest reading into it/looking it up. If there's one person you can seriously trust, you should try an mention it if possible. :lemon:
 
That, my friend, is a panic attack. I was first diagnosed with panic/anxiety disorders when I was 6 years old. That feeling you described is something I used to feel multiple times daily and still feel on occasion. Up until recently, I didn't want to talk about it irl either and just made occasional posts about it online. But one day I decided to go speak to a doctor to see if there was anything they could do since I knew I wouldn't be truly happy until this feeling was entirely gone. While it isn't entirely gone, it is definitely now bearable since I only experience it on occasion.

Pretty much what I'm trying to say is if you can build up the courage to speak to a professional, please please do so. I struggled for many many years with this disorder and I would never want to see anyone do the same

There are two things this could be:

Anxiety

Bad air quality


Not sure which, but it’s definitely one of those. I felt the same thing recently.
