I think I'm finally going crazy
So got in a fight with my gf towards the end of the fight (after we started getting along n coming to a middle ground) I suddenly started to miss parts if the convorsation .... Every thing just went silent Couldent hear her taking to me n I was sitting in te car right next to her ... I started sweating to death and it was like I was somewhere elce arguing with someone elce n when I snapped back to reality n could hear her again it felt like I was goin to have a nose bleed
Seriously .... Is this what loosing your mind really feels like or can anyone tell me I'm not crazy? Like this has been ruining my life n I've gotta figure out how to deal with this |
Your not crazy. Sometimes the mind can just dissociate from the present moment if what is happening for us in the present moment is too much. Which is why higher levels of stress can sometimes trigger it. Mindfulness can be a really helpful tool to use to help you remain in the present moment. Mindfulness is basically allowing yourself to be aware in the present moment and to not to be caught up in the struggle but to rather let it sit there.
So a way of practising mindfulness in the situation you were in would be to notice what is going on for you in the here and now. So what thoughts your having, what your feeling, what sensations you are feeling in your body, what you can hear around you, what you can see and what you can feel. The idea is to just name it though rather than getting caught up in it. So for example naming anger and that you feel sweaty. There is some other mindfulness exercises here that you might find helpful. Take care |

It sounds like an atypical panic attack.

I do this all the time whenever the missus talks to me. It's totally fine.

The intense sweating and disconnection does sound like a panic attack.
