I dealt with something similar a couple weeks later on and began to wonder if the medical doctors at the hospital mysteriously forgot anything when they were testing me. I began to feel awkward about to the areas where my attacks had taken place. I had some more panic attacks and began to worry when the next one would happen. Imagine if it had been on the freeway? What if I lost control of my car and crashed into someone? I fast could hardly bring myself to leave the home even for necessary things such as grocery shopping. I had a full-blown agoraphobia panic disorder.
Agoraphobia anxiety disorder is the phrase used to to identify people who have extreme or persistent panic attacks. A lot of people will feel a feeling of worry and worry sooner or later in their life [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], particularly when placed in unsafe or violent conditions. When these worries apparently have no obvious spark, they end up what is named a panic attack, though they usually come with times of severe tension to us (like critical output deadlines at the office or school).
Once, a few years back, I got in a crash and ruined my car while going along a rather busy street in Tempe [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Arizona. I remember the screeching tires and the noise of crushing metal on impact. Thank goodness, I was physically fine. In the 2 or 3 weeks that followed, I began to feel anxious when it came time to go to work, or by the end of my shift when I would head back home. Eventually, I found myself at lunch one day with a group of friends and out of nowhere my palms began feeling sweaty, and I found myself breathing fairly quickly. Soon my arms began to seem numb like they were asleep and I was lightheaded. My best friend, noticing something was going on, took me to any clinic. All of the tests confirmed I was altogether fine.

I thought I have to be going mad! I was trapped in my life and I was drifting away from good friends because I was so terrified of heading out and potentially experiencing agoraphobia panic attacks. I was nervous when I left home, I might suffer from an anxiety attack. If I got an anxiety episode, I may be left vulnerable and fully at the mercy of the place I would be in and also the other people that could be at hand.
When someone suffers from repeated anxiety attacks, typically approximately every week or even more, and with no distinct cause or traumatic stimulus, the person has what's called an anxiety disorder. They will often start to feel worried that they may get a panic attack at any specific second. They agonize that one of the common indicators (dizziness, racing heart, shaking [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], perspiration, worries of getting a heart attack or dying) may spiral out of control and advance into a very strong anxiety attack.
I presumed that I might be at less risk at home where I didn't need to worry about going through agoraphobia panic attacks in dangerous scenarios like driving a car or experience the humiliation of "freaking out" in public.
For this reason, some might begin to stay at a distance from locations where they believe they could be unable to break free from if an anxiety attack arises. They will often stay clear of packed locations, driving a vehicle in thick traffic, public transportation, tiny or claustrophobic areas, and in drastic instances even leaving the home. And this we call an agoraphobia anxiety disorder.
What I have consequently realized, is my life was closing in on me and getting to be smaller and smaller due to the thinking that there was a "secure area." In other words, I believed that I was safer in the house and for some reason moving out of the house, I might in some way be less secure. I now know there actually is no safe zone. Resting in my home is equally safe as walking down a crowded street. I've suffered from anxiety attacks in various circumstances and in numerous different places, and I am still alive. If left to themselves each one of my agoraphobia panic attacks would've passed on its own even without clinical trea
