Panic attacks

Ive been feeling really terrible ever since the weekend when we took those speed pills by mistake. Ive been unable to go into work because I keep getting these panic attacks. It started Tuesday morning coming in on the tube, and ever since then Ive been feeling really nervous, sick, unable to eat, heart racing etc.

What the hell have I done to myself, why am I feeling like this :cry: Will it ever go away?

I'm in work today, but Im fighting running out and going home, just because I feel so sick to the stomach :(

yes it will go away, I had a bad time once, we were at an after party and this guy there had this bag of "mush" which we all (foolishly) kept dipping our fingers into, anyway, the next 48 hrs were vary strange and very scary, hallucinations, no sleep, it was a high i couldnt come down from , I was convinved I had done myself permanent damage, anyway slowly it subsided and eventually after about a week I returned to normal. (well...as normal as I can be)

Bec check your e-mail. A few years ago I used to get really bad attacks (it was from taking too much speed and coke at the time), I would have to knock myself out with sleeping tablets just to get some sleep and then I'd wake up and it would start all over again and I literally did think it would never ever end. In the end I went to see my doctors about it and they explained that it's all psychological and they can give you tips on how to combat them etc, which really worked for me. Since then, touch wood, I've never had one since.

It's hard cos it's a viscious circle but try not to panic and worry cos that will just make it worse. Try and get thru today in stages, just set yourself small achievable tasks to do, don't try and face the full day head-on if you're feeling like this. Is Jon at work, meet him for lunch, don't talk about the panic attacks etc, talk about nice stuff like planning your next holiday to take your mind off it etc.

Hope you're ok, big hug xx

:( poor you, I hope Barbie's advice works. Really makes me angry that people go and and sell such rubbish to unsuspecting people. Grr!!!! :evil:
 
I'd never done Speed before until about a month ago, when we all ended up taking far too much at an after party :?

The week that followed was possibly one of the worst of my life. Couldnt sleep, my heart was racing, was high as a kite, had terrible panic attacks, and thought it would never end. :evil:

However, it does gradually wear off, you just have to try to forget about it and get on with normal duties. :D

I for one will NEVER be touching it again :evil:

I normally never ever take speed, we were sold pills by our normal dealer, didnt realise they were speed until the day after when we couldnt sleep/eat.
Just trying to get through the day, still feel really nervous and panicky, just gonna keep telling myself that it will pass.

Why the hell would someone sell people speed, claiming it was pills?

I for one have been put off drugs for life, my past 3 experiences have all been bad ones, its just not worth it :cry:

We thought it was coke we were getting..how wrong we were! :evil:

I dont know why anyone would choose to take it. All of us (about 5 mates), had teh worst week of our lives after it. It was the week before we went to Ibiza, and we were terrified of ever taking anything again.

Good luck Bec's, it will pass soon :D

Panic attacks are a lot more common than you think, if you've never had one before that's the most scary thing - you know the story the first time I had a really bad one and thought I was dying and made Tom call me an ambulance :oops:

Anyway lovely I'll be meeting you in hour and a half and we'll have a good old chat ;)

In my opinion, three bad experiences in a row are a call for taking it easy for a while.
 
Speed it the vice of the devil. Horrible, dirty drug. I can rember coming down off it every week, smoking a million fags and just wanting to switch off. Haven't had it for years now.

Best way to get rid of those 'horrors' from excess abuse, be it alcohol etc. Have a really good workout in the gym, get the endorphins flowing. Then finish it off with a swim/steamroom/jacuzzi/cold showers in between combo. That night you'll get a good nights kip and hey presto -- gone the next day.

Works for me! 8O
 
Sounds like a rather normal reaction to speed.

However, the less you eat the longer it takes for you to get back to normal. Try and eat and drink as much as possible!

Since you're a girl (less body mass) and got a fair amount of speed in your system, it will take some time to clear out. Especially if your body isn't used to it.

Speed can be a real crappy drug, but if you find a nice balance w/alcohol and know what you're doing, it can be rather fun!
8O :D

But like all comedowns, they're a bytch :evil:
 
I had one on Monday on the train in to work. My heart was racing and i couldnt breath, then everything went black and i broke out in a cold sweat. Luckily it was my stop next, i really thought i was off in an ambulance.

Time to chill out for a while I think.

Becki get some rescue remedy from boots. It really does work. Valerium is another good herbal remedy. Hope you feel OK soon.
