I have panic attacks quite frequent and im used to it now knowing
its not real and im not dying..

I once had a panic attack during the period i excessively smoked weed. I was convinced i was having a heart attack and when my
heart started to skip beats my intoxication convinced me that it stopped beating for real. I really felt it.

So under the impression i was a dead man walking i got myself to a police station at 4 am and told them my heart stopped beating!!

Good times.

The thing i learned to prevent those attacks is getting ENOUGH sleep and if you cant or just didnt sleep well that night
cool down on stuff like caffeine, keep yourself out of situations you dont feel comfortable in and drink a lot of water.

I also believe pot is a common cause even if you havent smoked for weeks. DOnt know if you use it but try to cool down a few months and youll feel better.
