panic.....

For the past weeks, I have spent almost every night in panic. It has something to do with the new memories, but I'm not really sure how. All I know is that it has been very overwhelming. Donna asked me to describe the panic. This is all I could come up with......

panic........very fast heartbeat, very shallow breaths, shaking, intense fear of impending harm, obsessive thoughts, overwhelming feelings of being trapped, no other way, sense of hopelessness, never changing, can't sit still but can't do anything else, can't focus on anything other than fear of something horrible, an extreme sense of urgency, needing to do or have something right away..................
