Hello… I’m 17 years old and I usually have one anxiety attack about every 2 weeks. My mom says that im having them probably because im depressed. When I had my first anxiety attack I thought I was having a heart attack and I thought I was gonna die so I called 911 and then I went the hospital and they just gave me medicine to calm down. But they didn’t do anything else for me. Now im having anxiety attacks like once every two weeks. And they last like 4 hours…. Its like 4 hours of suffering and im stuck in a temporary hell. Ever since that first anxiety attack I keep getting them. I never ever had anxiety attacks before that first one. Now they are a regular thing. I mean… I have been depressed for a long time and before I started having the attacks ive been depressed to. But my parents don’t really want to take the time to take me to a therapist or a doctor to check on me. Obviously im just really depressed and my parents don’t really CARE a whole lot. They are too caught up in there own life. But I was wondering what I can do for myself that would help. I don’t really have any friends since I just got outta high school not to long ago. im gonna be 18 in June.
