when did you have your first anxiety attack?
In third grade, when I was in a terrible canoeing accident and almost drowned. I've never been as scared in my life as when I saw the water envelop me, flailing hopelessly against the rushing current for my life.
If it weren't for the pile of sticks our canoe jammed into I'd surely be dead. The only thing that saved me was getting my foot jammed onto it, and no matter how many spiders or earwigs were in that thing I was thankful to be able to climb onto it.
Even after I got onto dry land I was shaking for hours in an anxiety attack. It was so scary... When I got home, I ran over to my cat literally sobbing because I was still alive and could be there. It was so awful.
A bit early for someone to go through something as traumatizing as that, but it made me realize how delicate a life can be. It could end any instant without warning, so don't take it for granted. Live a happy life!
