I have a mild form of asthma. last night, something weird happened, but it's not the first time. i had angina in my right side of the chest, jaw pain near the vein area on the right side, and tachycardia at rest (my heart rate was in the 140s). what makes it weird, as that it comes and goes, but there is never an explanation as to what causes it. i simply can't tell if its a standard panic attack or some kind of deeper issue that has been unresolved. also, fuck doctors, i would rather die than have them diagnose me

Also, have you considered getting to the root of your panic attacks? I’ve done some recent research into childhood (&other) trauma and how it can cause recurring health problems until you address the root of the trauma.

This book is the best, but a long read. I just skipped to the parts most relevant to me: The Body Keeps the Score: Brain, Mind, and Body in the Healing of Trauma https://www.amazon.com/dp/0143127748/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_6AFBS1X3EJSN021J7YHW

Also, the work by Alice Miller is good. She endured trauma herself and sometimes her books can be ramble-y and raw. ThriftBooks should have her stuff for cheap if you want to read any.
