Panic

I know the feeling all too well.

The feeling of hands slowly wrapping around my throat.

My breathing becomes faster and unsteady.

As I start clawing at the hands.

I look around for help.

But no seems to noticed the hands.

As they start to squeeze tighter.

I let out a painful gasp as I continue to claw at the invisible hands.

I gasp more as I try to clam my breathing down.

I claw at my arms, legs and neck trying to remove the hands.

I close my eyes wishing it would just stop.

You walk up to me and see all the marks on my body.

You ask what happened and if I'm alright?

I give you a sad smile and tell you I'm fine.

Just a little panic attack.

You give me a small laugh.

Nodding your head like you know something about it.

It's not like a panic attack can be that bad, you tell me.

I just give you a blank stare and think.

I'm sorry you're right, it's not that bad.

I mean what's the worst that could happen?




A/N I've lost count of how many people have told me that panic attacks aren't that bad so stop worrying when I had one. Like thanks for your opinion on something you've never had to deal with/gone though that's just so great of you. Anyway thanks for reading and I hope you enjoyed it.-skellington_girl95
