Panic
You know it all to well. When it starts, you fear it will never stop. Breathing becomes quicker, harder. Shaking, twitching, all over. The numbness, spreading like wildfire. Sensing the fear, taking over your body, ever so slightly, little by little. The world around you going quiet, dark. Only knowing, the never, ending, numbing, fear. The tightening of your chest, almost bruising your ribs, trying to be ok. Just wanting it to stop, needing it to stop. Keep repeating, "it's ok", "you're okay", "just breathe." You know sooner or later it has to end.
