Well I am a 22 y/o hispanic female. Let me jsut go a head and give you my history...Its a short story so here goes my first chapter ;-)

it all started one day when I had gone to go visit my friend at the hospitaln( I was 15 y/o then). I suddenly felt like I could not breathe. It was weird because I had never experienced this at all. I felt like I had to get out of there. As I got up, I felt like I could not move. I felt really stiff. Then I noticed my hands were in a fist. I could not open them. My face then started to twitch. Like I was going to be parylized or something. I felt my toungue starting to go numb. This lasted about 5 minutes then went away. I was left with a tingling feeling all over my body. I went to the er and they said I had had a panic attack. They gave me a tranquilizer and I went home. After that happened, I stopped going out. I was scared that that might happen again and that I was going to die. I felt as if I was only safe at home. That lasted about 6 months or so. But somehow I started going out again. Then my symptoms went away.
