Has this ever happened to anyone?

The other night I was at my boyfriends house. I was in the washroom and just as I went to walk out I got really dizzy. I called for my boyfriend to come in from the other room and when he got to me he had to hold me up because I was so light headed. My Visio. Completely left me. It all just went white to the point where I couldn't even see my own hand in front of my face. I broke out in a cold sweat and was shaking a lot. Could barely hear anything except for what sounded like a tap running in my head. I was convinced i was having a stroke And that my time was up which probably made it worse.. so i sat down on the floor and took deep breaths as my boyfriend told me to do and slowly my hearing and vision came back to me. I didn't feel right at all for the rest of the day. It was one of the most horrifying feelings I've ever experienced and when I told my doctor, she really didn't say anything. Has anything like this ever happened to anyone?

I'm not aware I'm doing shallow breathing whenever I feel panic attack is just around the corner. My body is anticipating the dreadful attack so it tends to do things to me that causes my body not to function well. Shallow breathing makes us feel lightheaded or feel faint. It's also when we are not breathing properly we are most vulnerable to panic attacks. I see people pass out whenever their loved ones get buried because of not breathing well. When I get panic attacks my heart rate and blood pressure rises and also have cold sweat. Don't worry some of us in this world gets hit by anxiety and will start to feel these unusual things that we never encountered before. People here in HW helps a lot in giving us advises on how we can beat this crap as they were already been there before. And you're not alone!
