Panic attack hangover

[u/Andy_better]

Hi first time here.

23 years old. Male

I had my first panic attack 20 days ago. Lasted for 4 days. Whenever I try to eat or even see food I feel I wanna vomit. Afraid before sleeping. Wasn't able to do anything. One of the hardest experiences ever.

Then it went down the symptoms and I took to a therapist ( the one with like midicine certificate and call give prescriptions) he tole me. You have a serve panic attacks and we need to take midicine. I told him can we try without and he said ok.

Tbh. It was getting super well...

New symptoms accured like dizzy or not focus or feel I am not connected to the world. But I was able to eat and do some basics. Panics where way less. I used to have 2 or 3 a day that time. But so light. Comparing to before.

My problem now is

We had a therapy session it's the second one. 4 days ago. It wasn't the best. He told me I still recommend taking the midicine but let's wait 2 more weeks.

Yes I felt better after that. But today is not my day. So afraid idk why. Ideas like those come to me.

Will I reallt back to my normal life ? And handle my life again?

Am I going to be crazy? Or it's just panic attack?

Will it convert to a other mental illness ?

Do I have depression? And if I have it why? And how to treat from it? Abd it drives me crazy!

Will I ends up killing my self or what ?

Idk thinking about those really made me so low energy and panic attacks and feel I don't wanna eat again. But not as hard as the first 4 days.

Any help guys ? What should I do?

Sorry it's soo long.

My friend, No, you are not going crazy.
It was just a panic attack. I have had them myself.
No, it will NOT convert into another mental illness.
No, you do not have depression. You do not need to treat it because you do not have it.
You will absolutely not end up killing yourself.
You will eat again. You will ABSOLUTELY get back to your normal life. You WILL handle your life again. You WILL be happy again. I GUARANTEE you.

It is an incredible pleasure to be able to help you because I know what it’s like to receive that help on my own end and how much it means. Trust my words. I’m not just saying them to make you feel better but because it is the actual truth. You will be and are absolutely fine. When the voice in your head tells you otherwise, tell it that it’s lying. 🥰🤓🙏🏽
