I dedicate this to a fellow LBC blogger who gave me a panic attack recently!
All wound up on the edge Terrified Sleep disturbed restless mind Petrified
Bouts of fear permeate All I see Heightening nervousness Threatens me
I am paralyzed So afraid to die
Caught off guard warning signs Never show Tension strikes choking me Worries grow
Why do I feel so numb? Is it something to do with where I come from? Should this be fight or flight? I don’t know why I’m constantly so uptight
Rapid heartbeat pounding through my chest Agitated body in distress I feel like I’m in danger Daily life is strangled by my stress
A stifling surge Shooting through all my veins Extreme apprehension Suddenly I’m insane
Lost all hope for redemption A grave situation desperate at best
Why do I feel so numb? Is it something to do with where I come from? Should this be fight or flight? I don’t know why I’m constantly reeling
Helpless hysteria A false sense of urgency Trapped in my phobia Possessed by anxiety
Run Try to hide Overwhelmed By this complex delirium
