A few weeks ago I had a really uncomfortable dream, no idea what it was about bar some very, very vague detail.

I had to put the head down between my legs to get myself together.

It has happened no less than 4 times since (so in the last 4 weeks maybe) but it has happened 3 or 4 times in the last few days. The first time, I was just getting breakfast. Grabbing a tea bag, a cup and I became hyper aware of myself (Sorry, it's quite difficult to verbalise it and that's as close as I can get). The same feelings came back and I had to sit down. I just remember saying to myself "Jesus f**king Christ".

Happened yesterday evening. It woke me up this morning. And it happened again when I was just having a cup of tea and watching the Simpsons on YouTube this morning! So every time it has been a different reason seemingly. At least I can't put my finger on what's triggering it. It's absolutely horrible and it's genuinely frightening when it happens.

I've never had a panic attack, so I have no idea if that's what it is or not. No idea why it's happening now. Life is generally very good for me, comfortable. Work is good etc. 


Could it be tea?

No harm going and getting it checked

I'd something similar a few years back, lasted about 10 minutes and don't remember parts of it but was just a once off thankfully. Went for a load of tests and they never found the reason for it, final word from the Neurologist in Tallaght was "unexplained event". 

Some people just deserve a slap

Sounds like a panic attack, although it seems like the trigger is specific. I would try and find someone suitable to talk to, maybe even talk to those above you in work about it as they might be helpful as it is likely, from what you are saying, to be work related.

5 times in 24 hours is crazy, would definitely go see somebody just to be safe. Hope everything turns out okay for you.

No, 4 out of 5 cases didn't involve tea LOL

-at work on the phone
-walking to my car
-at training (during coaching, something I love doing, so out of the blue completely)
-in bed last night

So yeah, probably best I talk to someone

Try downloading the calm app or headspace app. I use Calm app any time I have issues like that. Great for controlling your breathing when in a 'unknown' situation

Anyone else suffer severe dark thoughts a day or so after drinking?? Had stayed off the drink nearly all year but went on a bit of a bender at the weekend and heads f**ked now, be surprised if I get any sleep tonight. Always seems to be the night after I’ve got over a hangover, it’s much worse this evening than it’s ever been before.

Yeah, it was my problem with boozing and why I stopped. It became a cycle of it. I was fine when I drank and even the day after, but the second day I would be in a dark, dark place and often needed a booze to get out of it. If I didn’t, it would be no sleep, anxiety and be as irritable as f**k.

Ah the old drink depression....Yeah same here, posted about it a few times on the original thread. Stuff that normally wouldnt bother me or stuff id dealt with that was no longer an issue normally would suddenly come back and haunt me. ive cut way back on the drinking the last uear or so, but when I do have a drink its a heavy day/night. Ive just accepted the fact im going to feel like that for a few days and as a result the feelings arent as bad as they once were.
