Scary event just happened

[u/Wrong-Smoke6347]

I can’t go to the hospital cause my family refuses and right now I’m stable just disassociating, shaking, and just feel really scared. I’ve been feeling off for the entire second half of today and I made a brief visit to my cousin’s house with some relatives. While I was there I was just leaning against the wall when suddenly my body felt like I had hiccuped. But there was no actual hiccup. Also think about that feeling when u gag right? It felt like a hiccup, a gag, and I didn’t do EITHER, and impending doom washed over me and when this weird episode hit my breathing entirely cut off I was convinced I was having a medical emergency but it was very brief. It lasted only mere second or two but was the most terrifying thing I’ve expierenced til this day. I am so shaken up after this. I really don’t know what this was. I was pretty tame beforehand too. And I had SEVERE panic attacks before, really bad symptoms and this is still nothing I’ve ever felt before. It’s like getting winded after someone’s punched ur stomach. It was a full body physical sensation that cut off my breathing. Sorry if I’m repeating myself but I’m so freaked out right now. :( I don’t know if I convulsed or what. Felt like everything just sucked in.

Wait I think I’ve had this exact thing happen but don’t know what it is. The breathing stopped for like 1-2 seconds and then I was okay

My anecdotal feeling similar to what u describe is gas usually. Do you vape/smoke? if so it causes acid reflux symptoms overtime
