What I believe to be a panick attack for me is when I lay in bed to sleep and out of nowhere I feel like I'm about to die right there and I start having major problems trying to breathe, like a severe asthmatic. For me, since my asthma isn't severe, this is way worse than that. I would even say THE worse symptom I experience. Most of the time I really don't care if I live or die until this sort of thing happens to me, then I feel like I am in for the fight of my life and I want to live... maybe its a reminder from my subconscious to live again because it just happens unexpectedly to me. Maybe its because of a realization of how far my physical health has deteriorated since Iraq.
